Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 yellow onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 14.5 oz diced tomatoes
  • 12 slices cheddar cheese
  • 12 dinner rolls or Hawaiian sweet rolls, halved

GLAZE

  • 8 tbsp butter melted
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until no longer pink.
  • Add the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin, paprika and diced tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until onion and garlic is fragrant and soft. Remove from heat.
  • Line the bottom of the prepared baking dish with them bottom halves of the rolls. Top with the cheddar cheese slices, the beef mixture and the tops of the rolls.
  • In a small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients: melted butter, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well and pour evenly over the sandwiches. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Serve immediately!

Notes

  • My family loved when I added a few slices of crispy bacon to the sandwiches for the last 5 minutes of baking to create delicious bacon cheeseburger sliders.
  • Use a sharp or serrated knife to cut the hamburger sliders in the pan before removing them.
  • Sweet Hawaiian rolls or small dinner rolls work great for this recipe.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Tuck a few pickle slices under the top buns just before serving!
  • Sesame seeds sprinkled over the top of the top slider buns before baking adds extra deliciousness.
  • Dill pickles make the perfect side for these loose meat sandwiches.
  • Dry onion soup mix mixed into the meat mixture packs a yummy punch.
  • Spread condiments onto the rolls as you desire! Mayo, mustard, ketchup (hey, no judgment) are all options!
