Mini Cheeseburger Sliders

by

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your grill or stovetop griddle over medium-high heat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the meat.
  3. Divide the seasoned ground beef into 12 equal portions and shape them into small patties, slightly larger than the diameter of your slider buns. Press a slight indentation into the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
  4. Place the patties onto the preheated grill or griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. If using a grill, you may need to adjust the cooking time based on the heat of your grill and the thickness of your patties.
  5. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on top of each patty and allow it to melt slightly.
  6. While the patties are cooking, slice the slider buns in half horizontally and lightly toast them on the grill or in a toaster oven.
  7. Once the patties are cooked and the cheese is melted, assemble the sliders by placing a patty on the bottom half of each bun.
  8. Top each patty with sliced pickles, diced onions, ketchup, and mustard, according to your preference.
  9. Add a leaf of lettuce on top of the condiments, if desired, and then place the top half of the slider bun over the lettuce.
  10. Secure each slider with a toothpick to hold it together, and serve immediately.

Variations:

  • Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders: Cook crispy bacon slices and add them to the sliders along with the cheese.
  • BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders: Brush the patties with your favorite barbecue sauce before adding the cheese and bacon.
  • Mushroom Swiss Sliders: Sauté sliced mushrooms and onions until caramelized, then add them to the sliders along with Swiss cheese.
