Cheeseburger Sliders (Easy, 30-min Recipe)
Description
This slider recipe begins by sauteing diced onion and ground beef seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then mixing in mayonnaise for moisture and flavor. The sliders are assembled on buttered baking sheets with sliced cheddar on the bottom bun, beef filling, and shredded cheddar on top before covering with the top buns. A butter and sesame seed topping adds richness and a hint of crunch. Baking at a moderate temperature melts the cheese and lightly toasts the bread.
These sliders provide a compact, handheld portion of cheeseburger flavors, balancing juicy beef and sharp cheddar within soft rolls. They suit snack plates, casual gatherings, or easy dinners and can be assembled ahead for convenience.
Ingredients
- 2 lb ground beef 90/10 or 93/7 fat content, lean
- 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 large yellow onion finely diced
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 8 lices cheddar cheese medium
- 6 oz cheddar cheese shredded (or used more sliced cheese, medium
- 24 dinner rolls (or use 2 packs of 12)
- 2 Tbsp butter melted, plus more to grease baking sheet, unsalted
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F. Butter the bottom of a rimmed baking sheet.
- Place a large skillet over medium/high heat with 1/2 Tbsp olive oil. Add diced onion then 2 lbs ground beef and break up with a spatula. Season with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder. Sautee over medium/high heat, breaking up the beef and cook just until cooked through then remove from heat.
- Tilt skillet to spoon off and discard excess fat. Stir 1/4 cup mayo into the ground beef.
- Cut buns in half. Place bottom half of dinner rolls on buttered baking sheet and line bread with sliced cheese. Spread ground beef mixture evenly over the sliced cheese, using the back of a spatula to square off the edges. Cover the ground beef with 6 oz of shredded cheddar.
- Place the top of buns, cut-side down, over the burgers. Brush tops with 2 Tbsp melted butter and immediately sprinkle tops with sesame seeds. Bake at 350˚F for 12-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and tops are golden brown.
