Burger Sliders with Secret Sauce
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min
YIELD: 1 dozen.
These sliders are super easy to put together and are always a hit! I love that they are "fast food" without our having to go to a restaurant. Take them to a party, make them for dinner or serve them on game day. The meat can also be made ahead of time in preparation for your gathering. —April Lee Wiencek, Chicago, Illinois
Ingredients
-
2 pounds ground beef
-
2 large eggs, beaten
-
3/4 cup minced onion, divided
-
2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper
-
1 package (17 ounces) dinner rolls

1/2 cup Thousand Island salad dressing, divided

10 slices American cheese

12 sliced dill pickles
-
1-1/2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

Directions
-
1.
Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, mix beef, eggs, 1/2 cup minced onion, garlic powder, salt and pepper lightly but thoroughly. Place meat mixture on a large parchment-lined baking sheet; shape into two 6x8-in. rectangles, each about 1/2 inch thick. Bake until a thermometer reads 160°, 15-20 minutes.

2.
Meanwhile, without separating rolls, cut bread in half horizontally. Spread 1/4 cup of dressing evenly over bottom halves of rolls.
-
3.
Blot meat with paper towels to remove excess fat; top meat with cheese and return to oven. Bake until cheese has just melted, 2-3 minutes. Place meat on bottom halves of rolls; spread with remaining 1/4 cup dressing. Layer with pickles, remaining 1/4 cup minced onion and shredded lettuce; replace with top halves of rolls. Cut into sandwiches. Brush butter on top of rolls and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
