Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Cheese
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Buns and Condiments
- 12 Hawaiian rolls
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup mustard
Vegetables and Seasonings
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for melting the cheese and warming the rolls later in the process.
- Prepare the beef mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, diced onions, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the seasonings throughout the meat.
- Form patties: Shape the seasoned beef mixture into small, evenly sized patties that will fit perfectly on the Hawaiian rolls.
- Cook the patties: Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties until they are browned on the outside and cooked through inside, ensuring safety and flavor.
- Assemble the sliders: Place each cooked beef patty onto the bottom half of the Hawaiian rolls, creating the slider base.
- Add cheese topping: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over each patty to prepare for melting.
- Apply condiments: Spread ketchup and mustard evenly on the inside top halves of the rolls to add tang and moisture.
- Bake to finish: Close the sliders by placing the top halves of the rolls onto the cheese-covered patties. Arrange the assembled sliders on a baking sheet and place them in the oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese melts and the rolls are warmed through.
- Serve and enjoy: Remove the sliders from the oven and serve warm for the best flavor and texture experience.
Notes
- For juicier patties, avoid pressing down on them while cooking to retain moisture.
- You can customize condiments by adding pickles, lettuce, or tomato slices for extra freshness.
- If you prefer a smoky flavor, grill the patties outdoors instead of using a skillet.
- To make cleanup easier, line your baking sheet with foil before placing the sliders in the oven.
- These sliders pair well with crispy fries or a simple side salad for a complete meal.
