Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs lean ground beef (90/10 or 93/7)
- ½ Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ large yellow onion, finely diced
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 8 slices medium cheddar cheese
- 6 oz medium cheddar, shredded
- 24 dinner rolls (King’s Hawaiian or similar)
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted (plus more for greasing)
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and butter the bottom of a rimmed baking sheet.
- Sauté onion in olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook until done, breaking up the beef as it cooks. Spoon out excess fat and stir in mayonnaise.
- Slice dinner rolls in half. Place bottom halves on prepared baking sheet. Top with cheddar slices, then spread the beef mixture evenly over the cheese. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and place top halves of rolls on top.
- Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake uncovered for 12–15 minutes, until cheese is melted and tops are golden brown.
- Let cool slightly, then slice into individual sliders and serve warm with desired fixings.
Notes
Assemble sliders up to a day in advance and refrigerate—just add a few minutes to the bake time. Reheat leftovers in the microwave or oven. Add bacon, jalapeños, or any of your favorite toppings to customize.
