Cheeseburger Sliders (Easy, 30-min Recipe)
Cheeseburger Sliders are juicy, cheesy and beefy – everything we love about classic burgers! These sliders are quick and easy, make-ahead, and reheat really well so they’re perfect for meal prep or gatherings. Watch the video tutorial and you’ll be craving them until you make them.

We made these Cheeseburger sliders for our daughter’s 5th birthday party and we loved not having to stand over the grill to make traditional burgers. I made them earlier in the day which was amazing and took the stress out of making food for a large crowd. The kids were crazy about these cute little hamburger sliders and they disappeared so fast!
P.S. You can easily cut this recipe exactly in half (keeping the baking instructions the same) to feed a smaller family.
The Best Rolls for Sliders:
To make these burger sliders, use a 24-pack of dinner rolls (or 2 smaller 12-packs). We love the King’s Hawaiian Roll brand for making sliders and our favorite flavors are original Hawaiian Sweet and Savory Butter. You can also use homemade dinner rolls.
The Best Ground Beef for Cheeseburger Sliders:
Stick with lean ground beef – either 90/10 (10% fat content) or 93/7 (7% fat content). You can use ground beef with a higher fat content if that is what you have on hand since you will be spooning out the extra fat and liquid.
Tips for Making Hamburger Sliders:
- Spoon out the excess fat and liquid release from the beef so you don’t end up with soggy buns.
- Lining the bottom buns with cheese and covering the beef with cheese seals in the juiciness of the beef without making the buns too moist.
- Apply the sesame seeds as soon as you brush on the butter and they will stick better to the buns.
- Bake uncovered so the rolls don’t sweat and become soggy.
Can I Make these Ahead?
Yes! Sliders can be pre-made even a day ahead then covered and refrigerated. If baking from chilled sliders, add an extra 3 minutes or so when baking, or until hot and the cheese is melted.
Sliders also reheat really well. To reheat sliders: microwave each slider uncovered 15-20 seconds or just until the beef is heated through and cheese is melted.
What to Serve with Sliders:
Sliders are so fun because they can be served as an appetizer, lunch, or main course for dinner. We keep it simple and serve sliders with chilled dill pickles. They are also amazing with Baked Potato Wedges. Because these have the classic profile of cheeseburgers, try dipping them into homemade burger sauces, or use your favorite condiments like ketchup, mayo, and mustard.

Cheeseburger Sliders (Easy, 30-min Recipe)
Ingredients
- 2 lb lean ground beef, (90/10 or 93/7 fat content)
- 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 large yellow onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 8 slices medium cheddar cheese
- 6 oz medium cheddar, shredded (or used more sliced cheese)
- 24 dinner rolls, (or use 2 packs of 12)
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted, plus more to grease baking sheet
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F. Butter the bottom of a rimmed baking sheet.
- Place a large skillet over medium/high heat with 1/2 Tbsp olive oil. Add diced onion then 2 lbs ground beef and break up with a spatula. Season with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder. Sautee over medium/high heat, breaking up the beef and cook just until cooked through then remove from heat.
- Tilt skillet to spoon off and discard excess fat. Stir in 1/4 cup mayo.
- Cut buns in half. Place bottom half of dinner rolls on buttered baking sheet and line bread with sliced cheese. Spread ground beef mixture evenly over the sliced cheese, using the back of a spatula to square off the edges. Cover the ground beef with 6 oz of shredded cheddar.
- Place the top of buns, cut-side down, over the burgers. Brush tops with 2 Tbsp melted butter and immediately sprinkle tops with sesame seeds. Bake at 350˚F for 12-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and tops are golden brown.

Hi! I'm Natasha Kravchuk. Here you'll find delicious, trusted recipes with easy step-by-step photos and videos. 
This is a great recipe that the whole family love! Wondering if I could use sliced processed cheese on the bottom instead of sliced cheddar? I wonder if this would make them soggy?
HI Janice, I think that should work fine and I don’t think it would make these soggy.
This recipe is a keeper! When I try a new recipe, typically at least one of my kids doesn’t love it (usually the same kid). These sliders got a thumbs-up from all three AND they asked for the leftovers the next day! I have the ingredients on my shopping list to make again this week because they are requesting it.
Yay that’s awesome! Great to hear that your kids loved this recipe.
Can these be made into bacon cheeseburger sliders? If so, would the bacon become too crisp if going into the oven a second time after being cooked and cooked prior to assembling? Thank you!
Hi Lindsey, this recipe is versatile so I think that will work! If you try that. we’d love to know how you liked it!
These sound really good but I was wonerding if they can these be frozen? I have lots of extra buns and I don’t want to waste them.
Hi Barb! I have not frozen these but one reader has mentioned these cheeseburger sliders freeze really well, even fully assembled. They reheat really well also.
I made this for at least the sixth time and it’s amazing! Although I love onion, I’ll leave it out because my husband doesn’t like it in the recipe is still amazing! I’ve made it with, and without the sesame seeds as well. Thank you, Natasha! I’m sending this to my friend who came for dinner tonight because she loved it so much.
That’s great! I’m glad it’s being enjoyed!
Just cut them smaller so he doesn’t know they are in there lol
Good idea lol
Love this recipe! It’s a fun and delicious meal to take to someone as well.
Hi Jenny! I’m glad you love the the recipe. Thanks for the feedback.
I just love the simplicity of this recipe I’ve made it twice now and it was a hit both times
That’s great, Rose! So glad you are enjoying it.
Made last night. They were great. My husband said it was a keeper. Made the house smell so good 😊.
That’s so great, Diane! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
Love these sliders! Super easy to make and a big hit at potlucks! Since the husband doesn’t like mayo (and will refuse to eat anything with it – even if he can’t taste it) I swap out half of the quarter cup of mayo with 1/8 cup of yellow mustard and he loves it!
Thanks for sharing, April! That sounds great!
So great! I made some for a friend hosting other friends, one for a foster mom and one for my family. Yum!
So glad you loved the recipe! Thank you for the feedback.
Are the nutrition facts for 1 slider? These are so good and we make them all the time!!
Hi Carly! I’m glad you love the recipe. That is correct, the serving size is 1.
Hi Natasha-I’m planning on making these for a large gathering (50 people) and would love to prep them the day before but am nervous the buns will be soggy. Have you made them a day ahead and as long as there is cheese on the top and bottom they should be good? Thx much!
Hi Julie! These work great to make ahead. See my notes in the blog above for instructions.
Another recipe that did not disappoint! I drizzled mustard over them before adding the tops. My son had three which is unheard of.
Hi Tricia! I’m so glad you loved the recipe. Thank you for the feedback!
These were delicious and given rave reviews by our friends. Definitely recommend and will make again.
That’s wonderful! So glad you loved the recipe!
We love these!! All 4 of my kids eat them everytime I make them! I make a burger sauce from ketchup, mustard, and maple syrup to dip them in! The only changes I make are: I add ground up dried mushrooms to the meat, and only one type of cheese. These are excellent!
Thanks so much, Brittany. We’re glad that it was a huge hit iwht your family.
In the picture above with ingredients it seems you used cream cheese, yet it’s not listed in the recipe? Is it missing? Thanks
Hi Roxie, that is two tablespoons of butter, not cream cheese. I hope that helps.
This came out sooooo awesome
Made it for my family…
Thx Natasha❤️
I’m so glad it was a hit, Sherry!
I made these four Fourth of July and they were a hit!! Super easy and delicious. I followed the recipe but added a little yellow mustard (a tablespoon or two) in with the mayo. I also put caramelized onions on them. Next time I’ll probably leave off the sesame seeds. They look good but a lot of them came off the bun while serving and eating.
Great to hear that it was a huge hit! That sounds good, I’m sure you’ll still enjoy them.
Hello! I can’t find the Pin button. Can you direct me? Thanks!
Hi Cheryl! If you hover over the first image at the top of the blog post, there will be a Pinterest pin button in the upper left corner.
I have a kiddo who hates mayo and mustard. I wasn’t sure what to do. I added a hefty squirt of ketchup. My kid who has diagnosed feeding issues ate 3 of these! He asked me to make them again sometime. I think their small size wasn’t overwhelming to him. (He’s not young, he’s a teen) Thank you for this.
Hi Katy! I’m so glad the recipe worked out and was enjoyed. Thank you for sharing.
I have a son allergic to egg. So I can’t use the mayo. Wondering if this recipe will turn out of I omit the mayo? Or is there anything I can use to substitute?
Hi Leigh! Yes, you can omit the mayo. Some of my readers have reported using mustard instead as well.
I made two trays of these for my pool party and they were a big hit. I made them the day before and just put them in the oven before the party and served them in my caserole crock pot dishes. I used Lawry’s seasoning salt.
Hi Karla! I’m glad they were a hit. Thank you for the review.
How many sliders is a serving? 🙂 Thank you! My family and I have this recipe on repeat!
Hi Emma, the serving size is 1 slider.
Everyone loved these! So easy to make. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I will be making them again! 🤗
I’m so glad they were a hit, Michelle! Thank you for the feedback.
We love these easy and yummy sliders. Thank you for posting this recipe!
You’re welcome, so glad you loved it!
Amazing recipe!! I used velveta jalapeño cheese for the bottom and Taco Night Taco Bell shredded cheese for the top and it added a little kick that was just right. I also added my own garlic butter on top and that added a boost of flavor too. Will be adding this recipe to my every week list.
Hi Lauren! That sounds like an amazing flavor boost. Thank you for sharing your experiment with the recipe.
Hi I’m planning on making these for a shower do you think you could put them in a chafing dish to keep warm? Can I make them the night before?
Hi Eileen! Yes, see my notes above- Sliders can be pre-made even a day ahead then covered and refrigerated. If baking from chilled sliders, add an extra 3 minutes or so when baking, or until hot and the cheese is melted.
I haven’t used a chafing dish to keep these warm, but I think it would work. I hope you love the recipe.
Made them last night. It was so easy and delicious! My family asked when I could make them again 🙂
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Michelle!
Hello there, wondering if I can sub out ground chicken or turkey instead of beef?
Hi Heather! Yes, you can. Depending on how lean the meat is, it can be drier than ground beef so just keep that in mind.
Just made these and they came out delicious! I added a splash of Worcestershire with the mayo cause I like it. They were a hit and oh so simple, love it! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome, Ashley! That sounds great. I’m so glad you loved the recipe.
These came out great! How do you freeze and defrost? We have leftovers!
Glad to hear that, Danielle. I have not frozen these but one reader has mentioned these cheeseburger sliders freeze really well, even fully assembled. They reheat really well also.
I wanted to ask about the mayo- do you add that into the ground beef mixture, or just spread it on the rolls?
Hi Dorothy! I mix it into the ground beef in step 3 of the recipe. 🙂
These sliders are amazing! Our family loves them and they reheat very nice for the next day if you have leftovers.
They sure do! I’m glad your family loves them. These are one of our go-to’s! 🙂
Wonderful recipe! I’ve made it a few times and it’s always a hit. I don’t have sesame seeds so when I butter the tops I sprinkle on garlic and basil and it increases the flavor!
Sounds amazing, Marie! Thank you for sharing!
Ok this was a hit with my 14 year old. He couldn’t stop eating them. The first time I made 12 sliders. This time I made 24. There were no leftovers. Very quick and easy to make.
I love how easy they are to make. So glad they were a hit!
10/10 My kids LOVE this recipe. They get so excited every time I make these. Sometimes we use pretzel buns instead of the Hawaiian rolls. Delish!
Hi Lara! That sounds amazing! I’m so glad your family enjoys this recipe. Thank you for sharing.
Made this last Friday night for my grandson’s 13th birthday party ..storms came through knocked their power out.i made these and and a slab of my ribs . They all loved it. However I sometimes don’t read or look at the photos ha , 😅 I put the sliced cheese on top of the meat then top bun and shredded cheese on top of the buns . But after praying over it all God blessed it they said is was the best! We ate that night in candlelight and lanterns
He will never forget his 13th birthday party ! Thanks for the recipe it’s simple and Fool proof ! 😆🤣
Oh, wow! What a memorable experience. Thank you so much for sharing that with me. ♥️
Hi Natasha,
Love your site , always come here when stumped what to make..I was wondering on this slider recipe you have stated 1/4 C mayo but in the directions it is not mentioned so just wondering about that?
Thanks
Hi Patti, when using the slider, it will only adjust the ingredient amount on the list but not in the instructions.
I came for the corn dogs and stayed for the sliders and so much more! Absolutley love making these this way. My father makes these individually and when he had these and was told how he was so impressed.
I added a few tweaks. Used some real garlic and worstershire. And potato rolls.
Im older and live alone so Im always looking for easy, freezable meals. These are perfect. My freezer is getting well stocked with your reciepe ideas.
I’m so glad you’re enjoying the recipes. I hope you’ll love all the recipes that you will try from us.
What a great idea. My Dad loves making and eating sliders, doing it this way made him very happy.
On a funny side note. You have realized you took them out oven barehanded then next seen have pot holders. Oops. So cute. Im loving your recipes and the simplicty to delish food.
Hi Alicia! You are so very welcome. Thank you for your wonderful feedback. I’m glad you’re loving the recipes. 🙂
Made a half batch of these for the second time in just a few weeks. This time with ground chicken instead of beef, and my family loved it just as much as the first time!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Marcie!
Just made this recipe for my churches youth group. They loved it and there we no leftovers!! I’d say that’s a success!!
Great to hear that, Sarah! Thanks for your review, we appreciate your time.
First time I made these ….and they were a hit! Totally enjoyed them, will be making them again soon!
Hi Donna! That’s wonderful. I’m so glad you loved them.
I made this for a super bowl party at my house and I was so pleased with how quick and easy they were to make, especially considering how much food that is. And they were delicious of course! I will be repeating this one for future parties.
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Jane!
I made these today and they got rave reviews from family and friends. I spiced them up tex mex style and used spicy aioli instead of plain mayo. Delish!
I’m so happy you all enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us, Rachel!
Made for Super Bowl Sunday & was a big hit! I added 3 cloves of garlic to the onions. We used 4 different sliced cheese option: cheddar, colby, havarti, & gouda. Still used shredded cheddar. Delicious & pretty quick to make. Will definitely make again! All our guests wanted the recipe too!
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new favorite, Deidre! I’m glad the Sliders were a hit!
Wow this looks absolutely yummy! Can I make this as a freezer meal??
Hi Julie! I have not frozen these but one reader has mentioned these cheeseburger sliders freeze really well, even fully assembled. They reheat really well also.
I plan on making these this weekend for the Super Bowl. Do you use the sweet rolls or the buttery rolls for this?
Hi Megan! You can use whichever you prefer. I like to use plain ones. 🙂
These were AMAZING! Flavor was good and easy to make. One of the best parts is hubby loved them as well. Thank you for your amazing recipes!
You’re so welcome! Happy to know that you love this recipe a lot.
I enjoy all recipes and your presentations. When I want to make something and need a recipe on how to make it I immediately go to your website. Can’t lose going to the top of the chefs for great results.

Aaaw, that is so heart warming. Thank you for sharing and for trusting our recipes.
What is considered a serving? The calories said 266 per serving. Just curious. Thank you.
Hi Frank, the serving size is 1 slider.
Is there a specific reason for the mayo? I ask because I have a lactose intolerant person in the house and besides that they don’t like mayo (shame on them). Can it be left out? How would it affect the taste? Thank you
Hi Barbara! It adds to the flavor but yes, you can leave it out. One of my readers reported using some mustard in its place and it was delicious.
I made this tonight for my family. It was simple, fast and delicious. Definitely making this again.
Glad they loved it, Claudia! 🙂
My 8 year old daughter and husband loved this so much! My daughter asked for the leftovers for breakfast AND lunch the next day. The only change I made was added some shakes of worcheshire sauce and omitted the sesame seeds. Thank you for a great recipe!
Hi Erin! You’re very welcome. I’m so glad they were a hit! I’d eat these for breakfast too! 🙂
This recipe was loved by all. It was very filling. I will make it again…
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Sherri!
Made these for a 4th of July neighborhood pot luck “dock party”. They were a huge hit and was one of the first food items to go. In the fall dock party I made something different but heard that many people were disappointed I didn’t bring the sliders! Will bring back the sliders in ‘23!! Thank you.
These are definitely a crowd pleaser! It sounds like you’ll be making this one for years to come! P.s. a dock party sounds so fun!
Sooo delish!!! My boyfriend and I loved this recipe. I will definitely be saving this one. 😋😋
That’s so great, Aspen! I’m happy you both loved it!
I made these adding a little franks hot sauce and Worcester. And made as one large patty rather than breaking up the ground beef. Sooo good!
Thank you for sharing with us, Laurie! I’m glad the recipe was enjoyed!
These were such a hit with my kids and mil. I didn’t have sesame seeds or sliced cheese so I used shredded cheese top and bottom and I did melted butter with Parmesan on the tops. I made one batch as directed. The next batch I added a bit of bbq sauce and Worcestershire to the meat as well. Once on the bun I added mustard and chopped pickles. These do not last! Do not think of only making a half batch. Fun and easy as well as delicious.
That’s great to hear! I’m so glad they were a hit. I appreciate the feedback and review. 🙂
Super delicious!! Have made this recipe many times! My most recent time making it I made it with Ground elk meat. Soooooo good!
That sounds delicious! Thank you for the feedback, Brittany.
Can you use salad dressing such as miracle whip instead of real mayonnaise?
Hi Lillian, I haven’t used miracle whip to advise on it working; if you happen to try that out, I bet our readers would love to know how it goes!
I saw a few other recipes that call for using 1 pound of ground beef but the same amount of other ingredients (mayonnaise, etc) so if you’re using 2 pounds of ground beef, should you double the amount of spices & mayonnaise?
Just want to make sure
Hi Mary, we make the recipe as written in this post and love it! I recommend making the recipe the way it’s written the first time around, and making adjustments in the future if need be.
Regarding the make ahead, do you cook them completely or just put them together with cooked hamburger meat.
Hi Dianna! Yes, you can assemble and refrigerate them a day ahead and then bake them. They also reheat well.
I struggle not to make these weekly! Absolutely delicious and my whole family loses their minds over them. Quick, easy, moist and delicious. One of our fav recipes ever.
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a family favorite, Shelley! Thank you for sharing your awesome review with me!
I made these tonight and dinner was perfect! The only change I made was to sprinkle everything bagel seasoning instead of just sesame seeds. Delicious! Thank you for a simple and easy recipe perfect for a cold night!
Yum! That sounds like a great addition! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
Making these tonight with deer burger for my entire family before we head out to see Christmas lights. They should be a hit.
I hope you love this recipe! Deer hamburger sounds amazing!
These were so good! I love the comment about adding steak sauce-I’ll try that next time
I’m so glad you loved them!
Just made these and they are super easy and delicious! Love your recipes; everything is always good. I will be making these for our next family gathering.
Thank you, Denise! I’m glad you loved it.
Can you make these ahead of time – the day before planning to eat?
Hi Laura! These reheat really well, so yes, you should be able to make them ahead.
If you do not like Mayo, is plain yogurt or sour cream better to sub?
Hi Matt, yes, that could work. 🙂
I am a cook at at a high school and made these for my students. They loved them. I enjoy all of your recipes. Thank you.
Hi Maria! That’s wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
These are so delicious! We have made them multiple times. One option we add is 1# bacon fried then crumbled or chopped added over the hamburger mixture. No other changes. Best bacon cheeseburger sliders ever! 🙂
Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Debby! I’m so glad you gound a favorite!
Hi! Have you tried the recipe with American cheese? I want to try these, but my son doesn’t like cheddar, prefers American on his burgers. Thanks! 😊
Hi Gary, I bet that could work! I hope you all love this recipe!
I made these last night when I had a friend and her very picky daughter over. They both loved them and it was a huge success. I definitely struggle a bit in the kitchen but these were so easy to make. My husband also loved them. I will be making them again in the future.
Wow! That’s so great, Kayla! You know its good when the picky eater loves it!
We LOVE these sliders!! I have made them several times for my family and friends and everyone loves them! They are so easy to make and this is such a simple recipe to customize to personal preferences! Thanks for another winner! ☺️
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Gina! I’m so glad this was a hit with your family!
Never leave comments but these were great. Made them ahead of time before a pool party and cooked them at the hosts’ place for mid afternoon snack at her pool. Served with dill pickle slices and Freddy’s sauce. I used cheddar slices and Gouda shredded. There were fantastic!! Not a crumb left! Perfect for 4th of July or church potluck too. Highly recommend
Thank you for your comments and review, Deena. We appreciate it!
Hi! How far in advance did you make these? How did you store it? I know the instructions states to chill the sliders in the fridge and add 3 extra minute souring cooking time but I’m wondering how it held up. Thanks in advance!!
We fixed these sliders for lunch today and they were just ok. I personally think there is too much cheese and the 90/10 ground beef turned out too dry. Only 1 out of 3 of my children liked it.
I agree Joanna, so I used 73/27 Lean ground beef and it was not dry.
We cut the recipe in half and absolutely loved them! Adding this to our rotation. Appreciate this very much!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Katelyn! I’m so glad you found a favorite on my blog!
Going to try tonight! Hope my husband and kids enjoy- Thinking about cooking some waffle fries too!
I hope they all love it too, Shayla!
OMG – I made this recipe on Friday. Soooooo good. My family loved them. Thank you for this recipe.
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Wanda!
I can’t wait to make these! The best part is that I already have all the ingredients including the slider buns!!! I will be back to tell how they came. So sure we won’t be disappointed. Thank You Natasha for sharing…
Hi Debra! Yes, I’d love your feedback. 🙂
Looks great but what can she substitute for mayo? Not a fan but love the rest. Thank you very much.
Hi Ken, the mayo helps with the creaminess and texture. Mustard may work as a substitute. One of our readers wrote in saying, “If you want to make it next level, use mustard instead of mayo. It gives the meat an even better flavor.”I hope this helps
Thank you for having the patience for doing all this! Too short! Ya gotta bd kidding me!
Hi Evelyn! Thank you so much for the support.
I made these for my 2 year old sons birthday party and they were a hit! So easy to make in large amounts and everyone was talking about how good they were.
Hi Amber! Thank you for the review, I’m glad they were a hit!
Made these last night. They are perfect for some football watching 😉 Easy, tasty and only a little messy. I made them by directions except for adding a little Worcestershire and mustard to the butter AND I added some dill relish to the beef for even more burger flavor. Thanks for the recipe!
You’re very welcome, Michele. Great to hear that you enjoyed the sliders!
Love these and so do many of my guests. Do these freeze well? I want to make in bulk but can’t eat them all in a day or two.
Hi Joan! I have not frozen these but one reader has mentioned these cheeseburger sliders freeze really well, even fully assembled. They reheat really well also.
LOVE THEM!!! We have made these 3 times now. The second time I did not dice up the onions small enough and my son didn’t like them. A texture thing for him. I dice them super fine and sauté them well. They are in our meal rotation for sure. In fact, these are what my son and his cousin requested for their first meal home from college. That speaks volumes!
Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Dana! I’m happy this made it into your regular rotation!
Tasty, but these are not sliders. These are more like Sloppy Joe’s
Complete family win! Will need to figure out how to make the plain burger slightly more exciting but whole family loved every morsel! Super easy and very tasy
I’m so glad this was a hit with your family, Monet! That’s so great!
We’ve had so many guests in the past month that I’ve made them about 5 times. I add a little Worcestershire sauce in the ground beef. They are delicious, a real crowd pleaser.
Hello Donna, that’s nice! It is great and my guests love this recipe too.
Instead of plain butter I brush the tops with spicy mustard, Worcester sauce and butter mix. Gives them a little zing!
Thanks for sharing!
Had family over for dinner last night and made these since I wanted to try something different. They all loved them and raves about them!! The only substitution I did was add less Mayo and added Dijon mustard to equal 1/4 cup and added garlic to the butter top…delicious!
So glad to hear that, Heather! Thank you for sharing. 🙂
How many sliders equal a serving? Is the calorie count for just one slider or two?
Hi Karin, the serving size is 1 slider.
I was looking in the review to see if anyone ever tried this using plant base instead of ground beef. I did not see nothing so i ask do recommend using plant base or would this be going into the unknown? Thanks
Hi Mike! One of my readers said this, “! I just made these delicious sliders for my 4th of July gathering…absolutely incredible taste!! And, I used Beyond Meat because we are on the plant based diet. I followed the easy directions and voila! A mega hit! Will definitely do again and again.”
These tasted great, however the rolls were a bit hard and dry after baking. I used the Hawaiian sweet rolls and baked as directed. Perhaps covering them with foil before baking would keep them softer?
Hi Jill! Did you have these sitting out uncovered for a while before baking that they dried out? Covering with foil during baking may help with that. Could it be that you left them longer than recommended in the oven? This would dry them out.
I did not leave them out, other than slicing prior to baking. Perhaps I need to bake at a lower temp or for less time. I could also add more cheese…that’s always a good idea, right??
Perhaps. I hope that helps! 🙂
My SUUUUUUPER PICKY 6 year old LOVES these!! So that is a HUGE win in my book. Thanks for the great recipe!
That’s wonderful, Jenna! Thank you for the review. 🙂
Natasha, I made these this morning because they are going to a family at my church. I just know that the kids will love them as much as yours did. The recipe was easy and fast. I did add Dijon mustard and garlic. Thank you for sharing your talent and the recipe.
Beats another casserole. 🤣
Aww, that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Del!
Worked nice as a base. Mayo is not my style on a burger, but…
Thank you for sharing! Some of our readers enjoyed it with mustard in place of mayo and loved it! I hope you give this another try soon!
Can you bake these the day before then how do you reheat them?
Hi Kristi, yes you can. Please check this portion in the recipe “Can I Make these Ahead?” and you can browse through the comments section at the bottom too for more tips.
Made these tonight, AWESOME!!
Will definitely make them again!!
Very easy recipe!!
Thank you for your good comments and feedback, Diane.
Hi. I don’t like Mayo. Once it cook. Will it still taste like Mayo?
Thank you.
Not too much but these taste great without mayo. Some of my readers use mustard in its place and even avocado. 🙂
ABSOLUTELY THEEEEE BEST!!!!! 🤩 I made this for my family tonight and they are begging for me. Lucky for the I have backup ingredients! Thanks for sharing this tasty recipe!
Love it! Thanks for sharing the awesome feedback with us.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR WONDERFUL RECIPES, AND YOUR AMAZING SPIRIT! YOU ARE NOT BORING, IN THE LEAST! I LOVE TO COOK, AND YOUR RECIPES ARE ALWAYS EASY TO FOLLOW, AND PREPARE! GOD BLESS YOU❤️🙏🌺🍾
Hello Carol, thank you for your good comments and feedback. It’s really inspiring for us!
Oh, my! I just made these delicious sliders for my 4th of July gathering…absolutely incredible taste!! And, I used Beyond Meat because we are on the plant based diet. I followed the easy directions and voila! A mega hit! Will definitely do again and again. Thank you, Natasha!
You’re very welcome. So glad they were a hit!
If I decide to not add the sesame seeds, would I still have to brush butter on the buns?
Hi Nancy, the butter adds flavor and color but you can choose to skip this if you prefer.
I wonder if you could omit the mayo!! Hubby wouldn’t eat them if he knew it was in the recipe
Hi Jackie! The mayo helps with the creaminess and texture. Mustard may work as a substitute. One of our readers wrote in saying, “If you want to make it next level, use mustard instead of mayo. It gives the meat an even better flavor.”I hope this helps
Are these slider buns or regular size. By name of recipe, I would think sliders
Hi Deb! We used slider buns. I have the exact kind mentioned in the recipe! See the “The Best Rolls for Sliders” section in the recipe. I hope this helps!
After baking, can these be frozen and reheated, or is that not recommended?
Hi Caroline, our readers have mentioned these cheeseburger sliders freeze really well, even fully assembled. They reheat really well also!
I’ve made these normally before and they were so quick and easy to make! I did have a question though as my friend is allergic to eggs. Is there a substitute for the mayo that you would recommend?
Hi Jasmine, the mayo helps with the creaminess and texture. Mustard may work as a substitute. One of our readers wrote in saying, “If you want to make it next level, use mustard instead of mayo. It gives the meat an even better flavor.”I hope this helps
Could you use pepper jack cheese when making the sliders? My family likes hot and spicy.
Yes, that would be fine! 🙂
What is the process for reheating? I am making these for fathers day and have a lot to do tomorrow so I want to get as much done tonight as I can
Hi Frank, see my recipe notes “Can I Make These Ahead” for instructions.
Love this recipe! Easy to make and taste delicious 😋. My whole family loved it. Followed instructions exactly. Thanks!
Glad to hear that your family enjoyed this recipe. Sonya. Thanks so much for the review!
Can I use something other than ground beef? And if so, do I need to change the spice?
Hi Pam! Yes, I think it would be just fine to use another ground meat of your choice and change the spice if you’d like.
So good. Made several times. Kids love them! 48 slider is a ton but they reheat and are great for lunch the next day!
Hi Justin, yes this is a great make-ahead recipe too! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
These sliders were absolutely delicious and a breeze to make. They will be perfect for tailgates or “team dinners” during football season, too. My boys devoured these. Thank you!
You’re very welcome. I’m happy to know you enjoyed this recipe.
Made these today. Delicious! Very flavorful. Only thing different I did was add the seasoning after I drained off the excess fat. Will make these for a potluck on Friday, think they’ll be a hit!
Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Jessica! I’m so glad this was a hit!
The Hawaiian rolls and mayo really are such a great idea. made this for my husband today. We used swiss (his preferred cheese)and they were fantastic! Had mushrooms on the side! Will definitely make again! Oh, I loved your video also. Thank you Natasha for sharing!
You’re very welcome! So glad to hear that. Thank you for the review.
These were so delicious and both of my super picky kids loved them too!
That’s wonderful, Melissa! It’s so good when the kids love what we make.
I hesitated to try these because they sounded too simple to have much taste. Boy was I wrong! These are certainly stress free to make. I made them ahead in the morning and then spent the day out doing errands. I just popped them in the oven when I came home and talk about delish! My husband and mother loved them. I did cut the recipe in half since there are three of us and then reheated the left overs in the micro for lunch! Now on to your grilled cheese~! Since summer is coming we are trying all of your sandwiches and salads.
So glad to hear that, Brenda! Thank you for sharing with us.
AMAZING! These came out so moist and delicious. Super easy to put together. I’m going to make them for my housewarming
That’s great! Thank you for sharing, Kesandra.
Boy O Boy! Those cheeseburger sliders are great! I’ve made them a couple of times and enjoyed them each time. I made them early in the week and had them for lunch with chips and fruit. Couldn’t ask for a better lunch. I love burgers so much I could eat them every day. those sliders are no exception. I will be making this recipe for some bigger occasions than just my lunch.
Hi Rick! Thank you for the wonderful review. So glad you enjoy this recipe.
What do I do with the Mayo and grease mixture? Does it go in the skillet or the grease I spoon off?
Hi Jeanie, I’m not sure which mayo and grease mixture you’re referring to? In step number 3, we instruct to spoon off and discard excess fat. Then you will mix the 1/4 mayonnaise into the beef. You can watch these steps in the recipe video. We discard the fat and mix the mayo starting at minute mark 1:09. I hope that helps.
I wondered the exact same thing! It’s not very clear – I would write it “add 1/4 mayo to the ground beef and onion”.
Pretty clear to me. Step 3, spoon off and DISCARD excess grease, then stir in 1/4 cup mayo. Not sure why anyone would think you stir the mayo into the grease when it’s been discarded.
Love Natasha’s recipes! I prepared it as written except I used brioche slider buns. They hold together well, but are not soggy either.
Hi Anne, I’m happy to hear that you’re enjoying my recipes. Thanks for the good feedback!
These were fantastic! I added about 1/4 cup finely diced pickles and 1 tsp. ground mustard.
Wonderful to hear! That sounds delicious! Thank you for sharing.
I made this for my big family and they loved it. My fiancé is extremely picky and is wary of trying new recipes, but he loved this. Today we ate a couple that were leftover with some slices of bacon. It’s a game changer, especially since my house is full of boys. Definitely making this again, thank you(:
That’s awesome! I’m happy to know that you family loved the recipe, thanks for the review, Brianna!
Absolutely delicious! I loved them a lot. (I don’t have anything else to say, but there’s a 50 character minimum.)
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Andrea!
I just love everything you make and these are my absolute favorite way to serve burgers and everyone who eats them LOVES them! I wanted to say that I used this slider technique to make sloppy joes (using your recipe of course!!) and they were absolutely delicious! I made sure to use sliced cheese on top AND bottom buns so they didn’t get soggy and they were perfect. I made them last week and my son already wants me to make them again. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your awesome review, Sara! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
