Ingredients:
- 1 Tbsp. softened butter
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1/2 white onion, finely diced (or frozen, diced onions)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (or frozen Dorot cubes)
- 1 lb. ground beef (I used 90/10.)
- 1 Tbsp. yellow mustard
- 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
- pepper, to taste
Burger assembly:
- 1 pack dinner rolls, 12 count (King's Hawaiian Savory Butter Rolls)
- 12-16 slices American cheese (I used 12.)
- 3 Tbsp. butter, melted
- pinch of salt and garlic powder
- 2 tsp. white sesame seeds
Burger sauce (optional):
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 Tbsp. sweet pickle relish
- 2 tsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. distilled white vinegar
- salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Butter the bottom of a baking sheet with softened butter. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium sized saute pan over medium high heat. Add the onions. Sauté for ~3 minutes, then add in the ground beef. Cook, breaking up the meat, for another 6-7 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the garlic, Worcestershire, mustard, salt, and pepper and stir for another minute.
- Slice the rolls in half. Place the bottom rolls down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk together the melted butter with the salt and garlic powder.
- Place 8 (I used 6) slices of cheese down, followed by the meat on top, and then the remaining cheese (6 pieces) on top of beef. Try to pack the ground beef together by just patting it down gently with a wooden spoon. It will feel a little messy, but the cheese will keep everything locked in!
- Cover with top layer of buns. Brush the buns with the melted butter mixture. Add the sesame seeds all over the tops.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until warmed through and the cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the ingredients for the sauce in a bowl until combined.
- You can brush the rolls with a little more butter once they come out of the oven, if desired. Cut and serve the sliders with the burger sauce and enjoy!
Notes:
- Double the ingredients to make 24 sliders!
