Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 350°F.
  • Slice the rolls open and lay the bottom half in a 9 x 13-inch pan.
  • Cook the ground beef in a skillet until no longer pink and season with the salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, onion and garlic powder.
  • Spoon the meat over the rolls and add the cheese.
  • Place the open sandwiches in the oven until the cheese begins to melt, this will take 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and add a jalapeno slice to each roll and some bacon, and then spoon the BBQ sauce over the bacon. Top with the crispy onions.
  • Place the top of the rolls over the onions.
  • Brush the rolls with the butter and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
  • Place in the oven and bake for another 5 minutes.
  • Serve with pickles.

Notes

Separate the rolls: If you don't separate the slider rolls before adding the meat mixture, you're going to have to do it after cooking when everything is covered in meat juices, sauce and melted cheese. So separate them first.
No double cooking: If you're making these in a rush, you can assemble them and then bake until golden brown on top instead of baking, adding the toppings and then baking again.
Keep an eye on them: The last thing you want is for your sliders to scorch on top, so watch them in the oven. They can go from golden brown perfection to charcoal black in seconds!
