Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb 80/20 ground beef
  • 1/4 cup finely diced onion
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 slider buns, soft and small
  • 8 slices cheese (pepper jack or cheddar recommended)
  • Lettuce leaves, for topping
  • 8 slices fresh tomato

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Patties: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with finely diced onion, minced garlic, chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, honey, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are just combined to keep the patties tender.
  2. Shape the Sliders: Divide the mixture evenly and form small, round patties slightly larger than your slider buns, as they will shrink while cooking.
  3. Cook the Patties: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked through and nicely browned.
  4. Add Cheese: Place a slice of your chosen cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover the skillet to melt it perfectly.
  5. Assemble the Sliders: Lightly toast slider buns, then layer lettuce, the cheesy patty, and a slice of fresh tomato. Add extra chipotle mayo or your favorite sauce if desired.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the meat to keep patties juicy and tender.
  • Adjust chipotle quantity to control the spice level.
  • Use fresh garlic for a brighter, more intense flavor.
  • Let the cooked patties rest a few minutes to retain juices.
  • Lightly toast buns to prevent sogginess and add texture.
