Slider Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef Preferably 80-85% lean for moisture.
  • 2 whole jalapeno peppers Seeded and minced.
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese Grated.
  • 2 cloves garlic Pressed for added flavor.
  • 1 tsp salt To enhance flavors.
  • 6 rolls sweet jalapeno dinner rolls Soft and slightly sweet.
  • 2 tbsp olive oil For brushing on patties before cooking.
  • 2 tbsp cilantro Minced, optional for freshness.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Seed and mince jalapeno peppers.
  • In a bowl, mix ground beef, minced jalapenos, grated cheddar cheese, pressed garlic, minced cilantro, and salt using a wooden spatula.
  • Shape the mixture into 6 mini burger patties, creating a deep indentation in the center to prevent bulging.

Cooking

  • Brush patties with olive oil and grill them on medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
  • Place the cooked patties on sweet jalapeno rolls and serve warm.

Notes

Use quality ground beef for juicy sliders. Allow sliders to rest for a few minutes after cooking for juicy results. Consider toasting the rolls for added texture.
