Recipe

Ingredients:
• 1 lb ground beef
• 2 tbsp onion powder
• 2 tbsp garlic powder
• Salt & black pepper, to taste
• Hawaiian rolls
• Sliced onions
• Hamburger Pickles
• Cheddar cheese slices
• Mayonnaise
• Yellow Mustard
• Butter (optional)

Instructions:
1. Season the Beef
In a bowl, combine the ground beef with onion powder and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined—don’t overwork the meat.
2. Form the Patties
Divide the beef into slider-sized portions (about 2–4 oz each, depending on how many sliders you want). Lightly roll into balls.
3. Smash & Cook
Heat a cast-iron griddle or grill over medium-high heat. Place the beef balls on the hot surface and smash them flat.
Season the exposed side with salt and pepper.
4. Flip & Add Cheese
Once a good crust forms, flip the
patties, season the second side, and add cheese on top. Cook until melted and burgers reach your desired doneness.
5. Rest the Burgers
Remove patties from the grill and let them rest on a wire rack for 5–10 minutes.
6. Toast the Buns
Slice the Hawaiian rolls and place them cut-side down in the leftover grease on the pan. Add a little butter if needed. Toast until golden and crispy.
7. Assemble the Sliders
Spread mayonnaise and a little mustard on the toasted buns. Add the burger patty, then top with onions and pickles.
8. Serve & Enjoy
Serve hot and enjoy these juicy, buttery smash burger sliders!
