Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground Beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
  • Thinly sliced Dill Pickles, enough for 8–10 sliders
  • 810 Slider Buns, soft and small
  • 810 Cheese Slices (American or Cheddar recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • Butter, for toasting buns

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef Patties: Combine ground beef with onion powder and garlic powder, gently mixing to integrate the seasonings evenly without overworking the meat. Shape the mixture into small patties slightly larger than your slider buns, as they’ll shrink during cooking.
  2. Grill the Patties: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired doneness. During the last minute, place a slice of cheese on each patty and allow it to melt.
  3. Toast the Buns: While grilling the patties, lightly butter the insides of your slider buns. Toast them on the grill or in a pan until golden brown and crisp to enhance flavor and texture.
  4. Assemble Your Sliders: Place the cheesy beef patties on the bottom buns, then add several slices of dill pickles on top for a bright tangy crunch. Finish with the bun tops and serve immediately for best taste and warmth.

Notes

  • Select ground beef with an 80/20 fat ratio for juicy, flavorful patties.
  • Handle the meat gently to avoid dense, tough sliders.
  • Use fresh, crisp dill pickles for the best texture and flavor contrast.
  • Grill over medium-high heat to develop a nice crust without drying the patties.
  • Toast buns with butter to add crunch and richness.
