Ingredients
Scale
Slider Patties
- 500g ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Assembly
- 4 slider buns
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- Pickle slices
- Butter for toasting buns
Instructions
- Prepare the patties: In a bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to evenly distribute the ingredients without overworking the meat.
- Form the patties: Shape the mixture into 4 small patties that are slightly larger than the slider buns to account for shrinkage during cooking.
- Cook the patties: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until they reach your desired level of doneness.
- Melt the cheese: During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet or reduce the heat slightly to allow the cheese to melt perfectly over the patties.
- Toast the buns: While the patties cook, spread butter on the slider buns and toast them in a separate pan or on a griddle until golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Assemble the sliders: Start with the bottom half of a toasted bun, add the cheesy beef patty on top, place a couple of pickle slices over the cheese, and finish with the top bun.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy the sliders hot for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For an extra flavor boost, you can add a dash of smoked paprika or chili powder to the beef mixture.
- If preferred, substitute cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese variety such as Swiss or pepper jack.
- Use fresh slider buns for best results to ensure softness and good sandwich structure.
- Feel free to add additional toppings like lettuce, tomato, or mayonnaise for variation.
