Ingredients
1 1/2poundsground beef, 80/20 blend
2/3cupsbread crumbs
1/3cupmilk
1largeegg
1/4cupSriracha sauce, or hot sauce
1/4cuphoney barbecue sauce
1teaspoonItalian seasoning
1teaspoonsalt
1smallonion, diced (optional)
6slider buns
lettuce, tomato, to garnish
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a large bowl and mix together by hand. The milk keeps the burgers moist while grilling.
Form the meat mixture into small patties about 3 inches across. Depending on the size of your slider, you will get 6-8 patties/servings. Be sure to make an indentation in the center of your burger, since the middle of the burger expands during grilling.
Put the sliders on a grill heated to medium heat, about 350 degrees. Cook for 6-7 minutes.
Add a pinch of grilling seasoning (or just salt and pepper) to each slider. Flip and grill for another 5-6 minutes on the other side. Do not overcook them, as they will become dry.
Add a thick slice of American Cheese to each slider if desired and allow it to melt.
Remove the burgers from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes. Serve them on slider buns with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. I mixed a splash of Sriracha sauce into my mayonnaise for added flavor. Recipe makes 6 sliders.
