Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 24 dinner rolls, split
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Seasoning and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 (1.25 ounces) envelope onion soup mix
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
Condiments and Optional Toppings:
- 1/2 cup sliced pickles (optional)
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Thoroughly blend ground beef, onion soup mix, shredded Cheddar cheese, and mayonnaise in a large mixing bowl until ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Spread the beef mixture into a uniform rectangular shape across the prepared baking sheet, ensuring consistent thickness.
- Roast the beef in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, checking for complete cooking and elimination of pink coloration.
- Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and drain any accumulated grease to reduce excess fat.
- Slice the cooked beef into 24 uniformly sized small squares, creating consistent mini burger portions.
- Gently place each beef square onto a split dinner roll, creating individual slider-style mini burgers.
- Optional: Garnish each slider with a crisp pickle slice for added flavor and texture.
- Serve the mini burgers immediately while warm and fresh for optimal taste and presentation.
Notes
- Customize the beef mixture by adding minced garlic or chopped herbs for extra flavor depth.
- Use lean ground beef to reduce excess grease and create a healthier slider option.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like pepper jack or Swiss for unique taste profiles.
- For gluten-free adaptation, replace dinner rolls with lettuce wraps or gluten-free mini buns.
