Ingredients
- 1 pound chopped, skinless duck breasts
- 1/4 pound chopped bacon
- 1 teaspoon chipotle chile powder (optional)
- 16 slider buns (little potato dinner rolls work great)
- 16 Cheese slices (I used Monterey Jack, but you could use any cheese)
- Pickled onions, for garnish
- Dijon mustard or ketchup
Instructions
- Get the duck and bacon cold by putting it in the freezer for 30 minutes or so, then grind through the fine die of a grinder, at least 6.5 mm, and I prefer the 4.5 mm die.
- Sprinkle the chipotle chile powder over the meat mixture and mix well with your clean hands. Shape into small burgers -- look at the size of the buns and match the size.
- Grill the burgers, or fry them in a little duck or bacon fat. Typically sliders need about 2 to 3 minutes per side over medium high heat. I prefer them medium-well, so just a little pink inside.
- Toast the buns if you want, then add your fixins' and eat up!
