Triple Cheddar Stuffed Sliders Recipes

TRIPLE CHEDDAR-STUFFED SLIDERS

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat.
• Shape meat into 8 thin patties. Place 1 Tbsp. cheese on center of each patty; press meat around cheese to completely enclose cheese. Roll each into ball, then flatten into 1/4-inch-thick patty.
• Grill 3 to 5 min. on each side or until done, adding buns, cut sides down, to grill to toast for the last 2 min.
• Place lettuce, tomatoes and onions on bottom halves of buns; top with burgers and ketchup. Cover with tops of buns.

STUFFED SLIDERS YOUR WAY

Steps:

• Gently combine meat, eggs, cheese, parsley, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper with your hands. (Do not overmix).
• Form scant 1/4 cupfuls of meat mixture into about 30 meatballs. Push a cheese cube into center of each ball and encase meat around cheese, then slightly flatten each ball to a 2-inch diameter.
• Broiler directions:
• Preheat broiler. Put half of sliders on an oiled rack of a broiler pan and broil, turning over once, until just cooked through (no longer pink), 4 to 8 minutes total. Repeat with remaining sliders.
• Grill directions:
• For easy entertaining, go with a gas grill. Preheat all burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then adjust heat to medium-high. Grill sliders, in batches if necessary, turning once, until just cooked through, 4 to 8 minutes total.
• Make sliders with toppings and rolls.

CHEDDAR STUFFED SLIDERS

Steps:

• Mix together the beef, salt, salt and pepper. Shape into 8-2 ounce balls.
• Fill each ball with a cube of cheddar cheese.
• Shape each burger ball into a small slider burger shape.
• At this point you can freeze in a resealable freezer proof bag or cook.
• I like to cook in the broiler for a few minutes to the desired doneness as the sliders are so small on the grill grates. You can also cook in a toaster oven if you are doing just a few as a quick after school snack.
• My kid likes to eat these without bread and dipped in ketchup with a side of dill pickles. You can use hot dog rolls cut into pieces to make mini cheeseburgers.
