Description
Cheesy Garlic Butter Cheeseburger Sliders made with ground beef, onions, and melted cheese on Hawaiian rolls, brushed with garlic butter for a flavorful party or game day snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended)
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls (or slider buns), kept as one slab if possible
- 8 slices provolone or Swiss cheese (or 2 cups shredded mozzarella/provolone blend)
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise (optional, for the bottom buns)
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/2 tsp flaky salt (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and diced onion until browned. Drain excess grease.
- Stir in garlic powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook 1 more minute, then remove from heat.
- Slice the rolls horizontally (keep tops and bottoms together). Place the bottom slab in the baking dish. (Optional: spread mayo on the bottom buns.)
- Layer half the cheese over the bottom buns, spread the beef mixture evenly, then add the remaining cheese. Place the top buns on.
- Mix melted butter with Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Brush generously over the tops. Sprinkle Parmesan (and red pepper flakes/flaky salt if using).
- Cover loosely with foil and bake 10 minutes. Uncover and bake 8–10 minutes more, until the tops are deeply golden and the cheese is fully melted.
- Rest 5 minutes, slice into sliders, and serve warm.
Notes
- Use Hawaiian rolls for a slightly sweet flavor.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes after baking.
- Customize with pickles, bacon, or jalapeños.
