Ingredients
Units
Scale
For the Patties
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices American cheese
- 12 small slider buns
Toppings and Sauce
- 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
- 1/2 cup dill pickles, sliced
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Prepare the Patties: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined to avoid tough patties. Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each into small patties sized to fit the slider buns.
- Cook the Patties: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on one side until browned, then flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes until fully cooked through. In the last minute, place a slice of American cheese on each patty to melt.
- Prepare the Special Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth. Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed to get that classic tangy and creamy sauce flavor.
- Assemble the Mini Big Macs: Slice each slider bun in half. Spread about one teaspoon of the special sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Add a layer of shredded iceberg lettuce, then place the melted cheese patty on top. Add a few pickle slices and sprinkle finely chopped onions over the patties. Top with the upper half of the bun.
- Serve: Arrange the sliders on a platter and optionally garnish with additional pickles and a drizzle of the special sauce. Serve immediately while patties are warm and cheese is melty.
Notes
- For best results, avoid overmixing the ground beef when forming patties to keep them tender.
- You can substitute American cheese with cheddar or your preferred melting cheese.
- These sliders can be made ahead; keep patties warm in a low oven and assemble just before serving.
- Feel free to add a slice of tomato or swap iceberg lettuce with shredded romaine for a twist.
- Adjust the special sauce ingredients to taste for sweetness or tanginess.
