BEEF SLIDERS WITH CHIPOTLE SPECIAL SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the special sauce: Stir all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Make the sliders: Mix the ground beef, garlic and onion powders, salt, Worcestershire sauce and pepper in a large bowl. Form the meat mixture into ten 2-inch patties.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough canola oil to coat the pan and heat until the oil is smoking. Add the patties and cook, flipping once, until heavily caramelized on both sides, 4 to 6 minutes for medium rare. Top each patty with a slice of cheese. Transfer the patties to a plate. Wipe out the pan, add the butter and melt over low heat. Add the buns cut-side down and toast them in the butter.
• Spread the chipotle special sauce on both cut sides of each bun. Place a patty and a piece of lettuce on each bun. Top each slider with a pickled jalapeno strip and a pickled carrot slice, securing them with a bamboo pick.

SPICY BLACK BEAN SLIDERS WITH CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use.
• Place beans in a small bow and mash with a fork or potato masher. Add egg, bread crumbs, adobo sauce, oregano, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne (if using), salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Form into one-ounce patties - about 2 tablespoons per patty - by rolling mixture into a ball, packing together firmly, then flattening slightly.
• Add the olive oil to a large saute pan over medium heat. Working in batches so that the burgers aren't too crowded, cook one one side until browned - about 5 minutes, then carefully flip and cook until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes total.
• Remove patties to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain and cool slightly.
• Put slider buns sliced-side up on a cookie sheet. Add black bean patties to the bottom halves of the buns and top with cheese. Place under oven broiler until cheese has melted and buns are golden brown, about one minute (depending on your broiler - just watch carefully!)
• Remove from oven and slather chipotle mayo on the inside of the bun tops. Top burgers with red onions and pickles, sandwich with the bun top, and secure with a toothpick or skewer. Serve immediately.
