24 Sliders

Sometimes, burgers don’t have to be all that massive to be delicious. For instance, these Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders pack a whole bunch of flavor, and they’re almost bite-sized! This recipe makes about 24 burgers, which serve wonderfully as hors d’oeuvres at a family gathering or a party. Since these sliders are rather small, you can pair them with a healthy side dish (like this scalloped potato recipe) and the end result is a dish that’s surprisingly light but also filling. After trying this dish, please rate and review it and feel free to share with your friends and family on Facebook and Twitter.


These mini burgers can be whipped up rather quickly, as they only require a few key ingredients and limited preparation. In order to make this dish, you’ll need one pound of ground beef, four ounces of Cabot Seriously Sharp Cracker Cuts, 12 slices of pre-cooked bacon, six hot dog rolls (you’ll end up cutting each roll into four sections to make the mini-buns), whatever greens you’d prefer (we suggest arugula or watercress leaves) and finally the chipotle aioli. The aioli is simple to make, as it only requires a ½ cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar and ½ teaspoon of ground chipotle pepper or chipotle hot sauce.
