Cheeseburger Sliders Recipe

Instructions

1. Step 1

   Gather the ingredients.

2. Step 2

   Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 350 F. Combine the mayonnaise, pickle juice, ketchup, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Set aside.

3. Step 3

   Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently until softened, about 3 minutes.

4. Step 4

   Add the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, onion and garlic powder, and the salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.

5. Step 5

   Remove from the heat. Drain any excess fat. Add the mayonnaise-ketchup sauce and stir to combine. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, if necessary.

6. Step 6

   Remove the rolls from the package. Without separating into individual rolls, simultaneously slice all 12 rolls in half horizontally. Repeat with the remaining package of 12 rolls.

7. Step 7

   Place the bottom half of the rolls on a large foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.

8. Step 8

   Spoon enough of the ground beef mixture over the bottom half of the rolls, covering completely. Top with pickle slices, then a layer of cheese. 

9. Step 9

   Cover the rolls with the top layer of buns. Brush with butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

10. Step 10

    Bake the sliders until they begin to warm through, 7 to 8 minutes. Cover loosely with foil and bake until the sliders are hot and the cheese has melted, 5 to 7 minutes longer.

11. Step 11

    Let the sliders cool for about 5 minutes. Slice into individual sliders and serve.
