02 - 1/2 tsp salt
03 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
04 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
05 - 1/2 tsp onion powder

# How to Make It:

04 - Spread the cooked beef evenly over the bottom buns.
05 - Layer the cheese slices over the beef.
06 - Add any optional toppings like caramelized onions.
07 - Place the top halves of the buns over the cheese and beef.
08 - Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.

10 - Slice into individual sliders and serve warm.

03 -
  • Toast the bottom buns in the oven for 3-5 minutes before adding the beef to create a moisture barrier that prevents sogginess
  • Allow the beef to cool slightly before assembly to prevent the cheese from melting prematurely and sliding off
  • Cut the sliders with a serrated knife while still warm for the cleanest edges and to keep the fillings intact
