Ingredients
- For the sliders:
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup finely diced white onion
- 1 package (12-count) Hawaiian rolls
- 6 slices American cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/3 cup pickle chips
- For the sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons French dressing
- 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 pinch salt
- For the topping:
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and diced onion until fully browned. Drain excess grease.
- In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, French dressing, mustard, relish, vinegar, sugar, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder, and salt until smooth.
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally without separating them and place the bottom half into a baking dish.
- Spread a thin layer of sauce over the bottom rolls.
- Add the cooked beef evenly over the rolls and top with American cheese slices.
- Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese.
- Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the tops are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and carefully lift the tops. Add shredded lettuce and pickle chips, then drizzle with additional sauce.
- Replace the tops, slice into sliders, and serve warm.
Notes
- Add lettuce and pickles after baking to keep them crisp.
- Drain the beef well to prevent soggy sliders.
- American cheese gives the most classic fast-food burger flavor.
- Ground turkey or chicken can be used as lighter alternatives.
- Extra sauce can be served on the side for dipping.
- Soft pull-apart rolls work best for easy slicing and serving.
- Store leftover sliders refrigerated for up to 3 days.
