Mock Sliders Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine ground beef, bread crumbs, water, pepper, egg and onion soup mix. Mix thoroughly.
• Roll mixture out 1/2-inch thick, to a 10-by-6-inch rectangle between 2 sheets of waxed paper. Turn out onto cookie sheet, removing paper from both sides. Using finger or spoon handle, poke holes in meat.
• Bake in preheated 400-degree oven 10 minutes. Remove. Pour off any fat. Cut meat into 20 squares to fit rolls. Place one piece of meat into a roll and top with hamburger dills if desired. Serve hot.
• Makes 5 hearty servings.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine ground chuck, bread crumbs, egg, onion soup mix, water, and black pepper in a bowl; press into a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan. Prick holes through the chuck mixture for ventilation while cooking.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Drain excess grease.
• Cut chuck mixture into squares the size of the rolls. Place 1 chuck patty in each roll.

Steps:

• Put the onion in a medium bowl and cover with 1/2 cup water. Set aside 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, puree the beef with 2 teaspoons water, the onion powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a food processor until smooth. Draw a 6-by-12-inch rectangle on a piece of parchment paper; flip over the paper so the pencil side is down (you should still be able to see the rectangle). Press the beef into the rectangle; cover with another piece of parchment and press until the beef is very thin and fills the rectangle completely. Uncover and score the beef into eight 3-inch-square patties. Poke 5 holes into each patty with a chopstick (one in the center and one near each corner). Slide the beef on the parchment onto a baking sheet, loosely cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Trim the edges of the rectangle to make it even; cut patties along the scored lines. Heat an extra-large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and liquid; bring to a boil. Stir in the butter and arrange the patties over the onion. Cook until the meat is no longer pink around the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Put a bun bottom upside down on each patty. To steam the bun tops, rest each across 2 bun bottoms (like a bridge). Continue cooking until the patties are completely cooked through, about 2 more minutes, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons water if the skillet is too dry or if the onion starts browning.
• Remove the bun tops from the skillet. Slide a spatula under each patty, picking up the onions and bun bottoms along with the meat; flip over onto a plate. Top each with a pickle and a bun top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Slice rolls horizontally (keeping them connected) and place in the bottom of prepared baking dish; set aside.
• In a small mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, French dressing, pickle relish, onion, vinegar, sugar and salt to make the special sauce; set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef, onion, seasoned salt and pepper.
• Cook until onions are translucent and beef is browned. Drain excess grease and set aside.
• Spread half of the special sauce on bottom rolls.
• Spread half the beef and onion mixture on top.
• Top with sliced cheese.
• Spread remaining beef and onion mixture on top then spread pickles and lettuce in an even layer on top.
• Spread remaining half of special sauce on the inside of the top half of the rolls and place on top of sliders in the pan.
• Brush melted butter on top of sliders and sprinkle on sesame seeds.
• Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
• Cut into individual sliders and serve.
