Burger Sliders

Island Sauce

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into small patties that are slightly larger than the slider buns.

  3. 3

    Grill the Patties

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of sharp cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the grill or skillet to melt the cheese.

Onions and Buns

  1. 5

    Grill the Onions

    In a separate skillet with a little oil, sauté the sliced onions over medium heat until they are golden and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.

  2. 6

    Toast the Buns

    Cut the slider buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until they are lightly browned.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Make the Island Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Sliders

    On each toasted slider bun, spread a generous amount of island sauce, add a cheeseburger patty, top with grilled onions and sliced pickles. Place the top half of the bun on and serve immediately.
