Sliders

  • By Admin

These super-tasty, mouthwatering Sliders feature savory beef and pork patties tucked into pillowy Hawaiian rolls dripping with American cheese.  They’re a fabulous way to feed a crowd without much fuss because they come together quickly and are made by the dozen. That’s why this easy Slider recipe is my go-to for parties, potlucks, tailgates, or a quick weeknight meal. Make it once, and it’ll become the same for you!

What Are Sliders?

For the most part, sliders refer to a miniature sandwich, in this case, tiny hamburgers. Traditionally, slider patties are made individually from a ball of beef smashed on a grill with chopped onions.  In this recipe, we mix raw onions in the meat and bake one giant patty. We then sandwich the patty between uncut sheets of Hawaiian rolls with loads of cheese, bake it again until the cheese melts, and then cut it into a dozen sliders. Easy!

Ingredients for Sliders

There are many ways to make sliders, but the basic ingredients are the same: ground meat, bread, onion, cheese, and toppings. You can get creative with your toppings, but I’ve kept things really simple here. This is what you’ll need to make quick and easy Sliders:

  • Ground Beef and Pork: You can buy ground pork for a third of the price of ground beef, so I used equal parts of each in the patty to keep things budget-friendly. Feel free to go with all ground beef (or all ground pork), as the recipe directions won’t change. Remember that pork is white meat, so the color of these patties is lighter than a traditional burger patty.
  • Onions: add depth and bulk to the patty but are not essential. If you’re not a fan, keep them out of the mix.
  • Burger Seasoning: The spices in this mix add deep flavor to the meat. We’ve got a great Homemade Burger Seasoning recipe, but your favorite seasoning blend will also work here. You can also just use up to a teaspoon of salt and a few cracks of black pepper. 
  • Cheese: American cheese slices are wallet-friendly and offer superior melting. Of course, you can substitute them with your preferred melting cheese. 
  • Hawaiian Rolls: These make up the bun of our sliders. They are sold in uncut sheets, simplifying the cooking process. You can substitute the rolls with your favorite hamburger rolls, though it will change the yield and, of course, the assembly steps.
  • Everything Bagel Seasoning: This is used to add flavor and texture to the slider buns. You can substitute it with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or flaky salt. This ingredient can also be omitted

What To Serve With Sliders

You can’t go wrong pairing sliders with anything potato-based like French Fries, Sweet Potato Fries, or Potato Salad. They’re also great with Cole Slaw, Baked Beans, or, for the ultimate indulgence, Nacho Cheese Dip. (Don’t knock a nacho cheese-dipped Slider until you’ve tried it!)

How To Store Sliders

If you have leftovers, remove the patty from the bun and refrigerate the bread and meat in separate air-tight containers. When ready to eat, reheat in individual sheet pans in a 350°F oven. Warm the bread for a few minutes and pull the patties when they start to steam. Then assemble.
