In a saucepan over medium heat, add the milk and cook until just starting to foam around the edges and is warmed. Do not boil.
2 Cups Milk
Gently place the butter, water, sugar, and honey in the pan and stir until the butter has melted and then allow to cool to luke warm.
¼ Cup Butter, 2 Cups Water, ¼ Cup Sugar, ¼ Cup Honey
Sprinkle the yeast and stir to combine. Dump into a standing mixer and allow to rest for 3-5 minutes or until foamy.
3 Tablespoons Yeast
Pour the oil, salt, evaporated milk and egg and stir to combine.
¼ Cup Vegetable Oil, 2 Tablespoons Sea Salt, ¾ Cup Evaporated Milk, 1 Large Egg
Add in 8 cups of flour and using a dough hook attachment, mix the dough until it begins coming together.
9-11 Cups All Purpose Flour
Carefully pour in a cup of flour more until the dough is coming together in a ball around the hook.
Remove the bowl from the mixer and cover with a cloth to rise for 1 hour or until doubled.
Heavily sprinkle flour on your work surface and turn the dough out.
Flip it over so all of the dough has flour on it and isn’t sticky.
Divide the dough and roll it into 42 dinner roll sized balls.
Place the rolls about 1-1½ inches apart on a greased cookie sheet.
Allow to rise until doubled.
Bake at 350 ℉ for 15-20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and gently rub butter all over the tops.
Store in plastic wrap or bread bags for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 month.

Dinner rolls can be frozen for up to 3 months.
