CLASSIC BEEF SLIDERS



Classic Beef Sliders image

Beef sliders get a sweet upgrade on soft Hawaiian rolls, which are both kid- and adult-friendly. Add thin slices of grilled pineapple to complement the bread, if you like.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings (12 sliders)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for brushing the grill grates
3 slices Cheddar, cut into quarters
12 Hawaiian sweet rolls, such as King's Hawaiian, split
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
12 small pieces romaine or iceberg lettuce (about the same size as the rolls)
12 dill or bread-and-butter pickle chips

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat.
  • Divide the ground beef into 12 portions (about 2 ounces each). Pat each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty and make an indentation in the center with your thumb so the patties keep their shape while cooking. Sprinkle with salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Brush the grill grates or grill pan with oil. Grill the patties, turning once, until nicely browned but still a bit pink inside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Top each patty with a piece of cheese and grill until melted, about 1 minute.
  • Arrange the sweet rolls cut-side up on a cutting board or large serving platter. Spread some ketchup, mayonnaise and mustard on each roll bottom. Top with a piece of lettuce and a burger patty. Put a pickle on each patty and sandwich with the remaining roll tops.

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds premium ground beef (80 percent lean and 20 percent fat)
1 tablespoon good Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons good olive oil, plus extra for brushing the grill
1 teaspoon chopped thyme leaves
3 teaspoons chopped garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 ounces grated Gruyere
12 small Brioche buns
4 ounces baby arugula
3 medium tomatoes, sliced in 1/8-inch-thick rounds
2 small red onions, sliced in 1/8-inch-thick rounds
Ketchup, for serving

Steps:

  • Build a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill.
  • Place the ground beef in a large bowl and add the mustard, olive oil, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with a fork to combine, taking care not to compress the ingredients. Shape the meat into 12 (2-inch) patties of equal size and thickness.
  • When the grill is medium-hot, brush the grill grate with oil to keep the sliders from sticking. Place the sliders on the grill and cook for 4 minutes. Turn the sliders over with a spatula and cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, until medium-rare, or cook longer if you prefer the sliders more well done. For the last 2 minutes of cooking time, place 1/2-ounce Gruyere on the top of each burger and close the grill lid. Remove the sliders to a platter and cover with foil.
  • Slice the buns in half crosswise and toast the halves cut side down on the grill.
  • Divide the baby arugula among the 12 bottom buns, top each with a slider, and finish with a slice of tomato and red onion. Cover with the top of the bun and serve hot with ketchup.

A real-deal beef slider isn't just a tiny hamburger, which is what you get at the vast majority of restaurants. To be authentic, it has to be steamed over a bed of onions, bread, and all. You can change up the toppings, but I love them best with the traditional pickles and onions.

Time 1h25m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon pickle juice
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 white onion, thinly sliced
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon hamburger seasoning
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3 slices American cheese
1 dill pickle, sliced
6 slider rolls, halved

Steps:

  • Mix mayonnaise, Sriracha, pickle juice, mustard, garlic powder, sugar, and salt together in a bowl for comeback sauce. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Set aside 6 teaspoons for sliders; refrigerate remaining sauce for another use.
  • Coat the bottom of a deep pan with a thin layer of oil. Heat over medium heat. Add onion in about a 1/2-inch layer across the whole pan. Cover and let cook until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir, and re-cover.
  • While onion is cooking, combine beef, seasoning, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl. Shape into 6 small patties.
  • Toss onion around the pan so as not to burn one side. Place patties over the bed of onion and cover the pan. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Flip burgers. Place 1/2 a slice of American cheese on top of each burger and several pickle slices on the cheese. Place both halves of buns stacked face-down on top of each burger. The top bun should be the one touching the cheese and pickles. Cover to steam the buns and cook burgers until no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 5 minutes more.
  • Remove the buns and burgers from the pan. Spread comeback sauce on the bottom half of each bun, then load some onions onto it. Place burger and top bun on top. Serve hot.

SLIDERS

We love grilling sliders in the summertime. You get the same great taste of a regular size hamburger in a smaller, easy to handle form. Amy's sliders are seasoned very well. It doesn't take away from the natural flavor of the beef. Place the sliders on soft Hawaiian sweet rolls and top with your favorite toppings for one easy and...

Categories     Beef

Time 15h30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 to 1 1/2 lb 80-20 ground beef
2-3 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1 pkg Hawaiian bread rolls
toppings of your choice, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, etc.

Steps:

  • 1. Mix ground beef with Worchestershire sauce, onion powder, and garlic salt. Form into patties that are thin and bigger than the Hawaiian rolls (80-20 beef will shrink). I used one of those cheap plastic patty forms and made the patty just shy (1/2") from the edge.
  • 2. Heat grill on high. Place patties on the grill to sear the first side and turn the heat down to medium. Cook 2-3 minutes, flip and cook another 2-3 minutes until juices run clear. Top with cheese of your liking to melt.
  • 3. Serve with rolls and toppings of your choice (i.e. shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced baby dills, finely sliced sweet onion, etc.).

Tips:

  • Use fresh ground beef: Fresh ground beef will give your sliders the best flavor and texture. If you can, get it from a local butcher or grocery store meat counter.
  • Season the beef well: Don't be afraid to season the beef liberally. A good rule of thumb is to use about 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper per pound of beef.
  • Form the patties evenly: To ensure that your sliders cook evenly, make sure the patties are all the same size and thickness. You can use a kitchen scale to measure out the beef if you want to be precise.
  • Don't overcook the patties: Sliders are best when the patties are cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooked patties will be dry and tough.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The possibilities are endless when it comes to toppings for ground beef sliders. Some popular options include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and ketchup.

Conclusion:

Grilled ground beef sliders are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. With a few simple tips, you can make sure your sliders are cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these sliders a try!
