How to Make Big Mac Sliders

Ingredients

1 lb lean ground beef
Salt & pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 white onion, finely chopped
Shredded lettuce
6 slices American cheese
Pickle chips
12 count Hawaiian Rolls
2 tablespoons melted butter
Sesame seeds
1/2 cup mayo
2 tablespoons French dressing
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch salt

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×13 baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. This will make sure our sliders do not stick during baking.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayo, French dressing, yellow mustard, sweet pickle relish, white vinegar, granulated sugar, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt to create our special Mac sauce. Stir well and place it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
In a large mixing bowl, take the ground beef and season it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and the chopped onion. Mix everything together until well combined.
Now, press this beef mixture into the baking sheet, making a nice flat rectangle. We want it to bake evenly. Place it in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until cooked through.
While the beef is in the oven, take your Hawaiian rolls and slice them in half horizontally. Be careful to keep the top and bottom parts intact. Spread a generous amount of your Mac sauce on the bottom halves.
On top of the sauce, add a layer of shredded lettuce, the cooked hamburger patty, American cheese slices, and sprinkle on those lovely pickle chips.
Place the top halves of the rolls back on top and gently press down to hold everything together.
Now, brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds for that authentic touch.
Transfer the sliders back to the baking sheet and return them to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the cheese is melting and bubbly.
Serve those lovely sliders immediately, and don’t forget some crispy french fries or extra Mac sauce on the side!

How to Serve Big Mac Sliders

Consider serving your delightful Big Mac Sliders hot from the oven. Once they come out, they should look golden and inviting, with the melted cheese just oozing out. Pop them on a nice platter, and watch as your family and friends gather around, drawn in by the mouthwatering aroma!

Another lovely touch is to pair these sliders with traditional side dips, such as extra Mac sauce or classic ketchup. A side of crispy french fries or a fresh salad can complement the sliders beautifully, making your meal even more satisfying. Presentation matters, so feel free to add fresh herbs or a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top to make your dish even more appealing.

And remember, since these sliders are so easy to grab, they make for perfect finger foods. Let your guests build their own mini burgers as they add their favorite toppings or sauces. This will create an interactive dining experience that encourages laughter and conversation!

Additional Tips:

• For extra flavor, consider adding a slice of crispy bacon or avocado.


• Try using different types of cheese, like cheddar or pepper jack, for a twist on the classic taste.


• If you prefer to make mini versions, simply cut the rolls down and reduce the size of the beef patties!
