Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix well and form into three equal-sized balls.

  2. 2

    Cook the Burgers

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place the beef balls onto the skillet and smash them down with a spatula to form patties. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, until browned.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Flip the patties and immediately place a slice of American cheese on top of each. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Topping Preparation

  1. 4

    Slice the Vegetables

    While the burgers are cooking, slice the tomato into rounds and chop the onion into thin rings.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash the romaine lettuce leaves and pat dry. Set them aside for assembly.

Secret Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until smooth.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Sliders

    On each slider bun, spread a generous amount of secret sauce. Place a burger patty with melted cheese on top, followed by tomato slices, romaine leaves, pickles, and a few rings of caramelized onion.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Place the assembled sliders on a serving platter and enjoy!
