Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 slider buns
- 6 slices of cheddar cheese, halved
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (optional)
- Pickles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Onions: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized (about 10-15 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.
- Season the Beef: In a bowl, mix the ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Divide into 12 equal portions and shape into small patties.
- Cook the Patties: In the same skillet, cook the beef patties over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
- Assemble the Sliders: Place the bottom halves of the slider buns on a baking sheet. Place one beef patty on each bun, followed by a slice of cheddar cheese. Add caramelized onions on top of the cheese.
- Top with Bun: Place the top halves of the slider buns on each stack. In a small bowl, mix melted butter with Worcestershire sauce. Brush the tops of the buns with the butter mixture.
- Bake: Cover the sliders with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the buns are warm.
- Serve: Optionally, spread a small amount of mayonnaise on the top bun before serving. Add pickles if desired.
