Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

• Lean ground beef

• Sweet onion, diced

• Kosher salt

• Black pepper

• Dill pickle relish

• Slider buns (round or square)

• Mayonnaise

• Sriracha hot sauce

• Ketchup

• American cheese slices

Directions

1. Prepare the Meat Mixture: In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the diced sweet onion until translucent. Add the lean ground beef, season with kosher salt and black pepper, and cook until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat, then stir in the dill pickle relish.

2. Prepare the Buns: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with Sriracha hot sauce. Spread this mixture on the inside of the top halves of the slider buns. Spread ketchup on the inside of the bottom halves.

3. Assemble the Sliders: Place the bottom halves of the buns in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Evenly distribute the meat mixture over the buns, layer with American cheese slices, and place the top halves of the buns over the cheese.

4. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sliders are heated through.

5. Serve: Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve the sliders warm.

Servings and Timing

• Servings: This recipe yields approximately 12 sliders, depending on the size of your buns.

• Preparation Time: About 10 minutes.

• Cooking Time: Approximately 15 minutes.

• Total Time: Around 25 minutes.

Variations

• Cheese Options: While American cheese provides a classic taste, feel free to substitute with cheddar, Swiss, or your preferred cheese.

• Spice Level: Adjust the amount of Sriracha in the mayo to control the heat, or omit it entirely for a milder flavor.

• Bun Choices: Hawaiian rolls add a touch of sweetness, while pretzel buns offer a hearty twist. Choose based on your preference.

• Additional Toppings: Incorporate lettuce, tomato slices.

Storage/Reheating

• Storage: Store any leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

• Reheating: To reheat, place sliders on a baking sheet and warm in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through. This helps maintain the buns’ texture better than microwaving.

FAQs

What type of ground beef is best for this recipe?

Using lean ground beef (such as 90/10) is recommended to reduce excess grease, which helps prevent the sliders from becoming soggy.

Can I prepare these sliders ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the sliders up to a day in advance. Cover the assembled sliders tightly with foil and refrigerate. When ready to serve, bake as directed, adding a few extra minutes if needed to ensure they’re heated through.

What can I use instead of Sriracha in the mayo?

If you prefer a milder spread, you can substitute Sriracha with a mild hot sauce, Dijon mustard, or simply use plain mayonnaise.

Are there gluten-free options for this recipe?

Absolutely. Substitute regular slider buns with gluten-free buns to accommodate dietary restrictions. Ensure all condiments used are also gluten-free.

Can I freeze the cooked sliders?

While it’s possible to freeze cooked sliders, the texture of the buns may change upon reheating. If you choose to freeze them, wrap each slider individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating in the oven.

What side dishes pair well with these sliders?

Classic sides like French fries, sweet potato fries, coleslaw, or a simple green salad complement these sliders well.

How can I make the sliders spicier?

To add more heat, increase the amount of Sriracha in the mayo, add sliced jalapeños to the meat mixture, or sprinkle red pepper flakes over the assembled sliders before baking.

Is there a vegetarian version of this recipe?

Yes, you can substitute the ground beef with plant-based ground meat alternatives. Cook and season
