Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 teaspoons favorite beef seasoning
  • ½ large yellow onion, finely diced
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 8 slices medium cheddar cheese
  • 12 count Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Skillet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Chef's Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Wooden Spoon

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Start by spraying a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray to ensure the sliders come out easily after baking.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add your finely diced onion and ground beef. Use a spatula to break up the meat as it cooks. Season it with your favorite beef seasoning. The smell will be mouthwatering!
  3. Cook the beef until it’s browned and cooked through, about 7 to 10 minutes, then remove it from the heat. Make sure to drain any excess grease, as you want your sliders to be savory, not greasy.
  4. Once drained, stir in the mayonnaise until well combined. This adds a creamy texture that perfectly complements the beef.
  5. Now, cut the Hawaiian sweet rolls in half. Place the bottom halves of the rolls into the prepared baking dish, creating a perfect base for your sliders.
  6. Spread the beef mixture evenly over the rolls, making sure every bite is packed with flavor.
  7. Top the beef generously with cheddar cheese slices, letting the cheese overlap slightly for maximum cheesiness.
  8. Place the top halves of the buns, cut-side down, over the cheese. This will create the perfect burger-like experience.
  9. Brush the tops of the buns with melted butter, and sprinkle with sesame seeds for that extra touch of flavor.
  10. Bake in your preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown, creating a beautiful contrast.
  11. Once done, remove the sliders from the oven, let them cool slightly, and then cut them into individual sliders. Serve immediately and watch them disappear!

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container or tightly wrap the dish they were baked in. They will last in the fridge for about 2 days. The longer they sit, the more soggy they will get.
