Ingredients
Sliders
- 1 pound lean ground beef 93 or 96% blend
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning
- 12 slider buns brioche, Hawaiian rolls or dinner rolls
- 12 slices American cheese
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon butter melted

Optional Toppings

- Lettuce
- Tomato slices
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, onions & Montreal seasoning. Cook until meat is cooked through, breaking up meat while cooking (I use a ChopStir to get a fine crumble like a Maid Rite sandwich). Drain the grease.1 pound lean ground beef, ¼ cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning
- While the meat is cooking, use a serrated knife to cut the slider buns in half horizontally. Set the bun tops aside. Line a 9x13 casserole dish with parchment paper and spritz with non-stick spray. Place bottom buns in the casserole dish, cut side up.12 slider buns
- Place 6 slices of cheese over the bottom buns. Layer with the ground beef mixture and top with remaining 6 slices of cheese.12 slices American cheese
- Spread mayonnaise over the cut side of the top buns and place on top of sliders.2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Brush melted butter over buns and sprinkle with sesame seeds.1 tablespoon butter, 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until cheese is melted. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- If you don't have Montreal Steak seasoning, make your own: 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt and mix together.
- Recipe can be easily doubled.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- To reheat: wrap sliders in a paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds; continue in 15 second intervals until hot. Use a microwave plate cover if you have one - it keeps the buns nice & soft.
