Tips & Variations
- Use a mix of cheddar and American cheese for a sharper flavor.
- Add a slice of tomato or some sautéed mushrooms for extra toppings.
- For a spicier kick, spread a thin layer of chipotle mayo instead of ketchup and mustard.
- Make sliders ahead of time and refrigerate before baking for an easy party prep.
Storage
Store leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350˚F for about 10 minutes or until warmed through to maintain the melted cheese and soft rolls. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.

Ingredients
Sliders
- 12 slider rolls
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 6 slices American cheese
- 12 dill pickle slices
Condiments
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 tablespoon mustard
Topping
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350˚F (175˚C) to get it ready for baking the sliders later.
- Cook beef and onions: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and diced onion, breaking apart the beef with a spatula and stirring frequently until fully cooked, approximately 5-6 minutes. Drain any excess grease to keep the sliders from being too oily.
- Season beef: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, blending the flavors thoroughly.
- Assemble sliders: Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally and place the bottom halves in a baking dish. Layer the cooked beef evenly over the rolls, followed by the American cheese slices and dill pickle slices on top.
- Prepare tops: Spread ketchup and mustard evenly across the inside of the top halves of the slider rolls. Then place these tops over the layered bottom halves.
- Apply butter mixture: Combine the melted butter with garlic salt until dissolved. Brush this flavorful mixture generously over the tops of the assembled sliders. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the buttered tops if using.
- Bake sliders: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown and slightly toasted.
- Serve: Remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these delicious cheeseburger sliders warm!
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add sautéed mushrooms or caramelized onions to the beef mixture before assembling.
- If you prefer spicier sliders, add a dash of hot sauce to the ground beef or mix some jalapeños in with the pickles.
- Use any cheese you like; cheddar or pepper jack are great alternatives to American cheese.
- These sliders can be prepared ahead of time by assembling them and refrigerating, then baking right before serving.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven to maintain the crispy tops.
