These Sheetpan Burger Sliders are a game-changer for easy weeknight dinners or gatherings. Enjoy juicy mini beef patties on soft buns, topped with melty cheese, all baked on a single sheetpan for minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 to 2 pounds of 80/20 ground beef
  • Slider buns (Hawaiian sweet rolls, potato rolls, or brioche slider buns)
  • American cheese slices (or cheddar, Monterey Jack, or provolone slices)
  • Onion (optional, finely diced or thinly sliced)
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • ½ teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon of onion powder
  • A dash of smoked paprika
  • Your favorite burger toppings (lettuce, tomato, pickle chips, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise)
  • Ingredients for special sauce (mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, hot sauce)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine your ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. If using diced onion, add it now. Mix gently to combine.
  3. Transfer the seasoned ground beef to the center of your prepared sheet pan. Press the beef evenly across the entire surface of the pan, aiming for a uniform thickness of about ½ to ¾ inch.
  4. Place the sheet pan with the beef patty into your preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through to your desired doneness.
  5. Immediately after draining the fat, arrange your cheese slices over the hot burger patty. Return the sheet pan to the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
  6. While the cheese is melting, toast your slider buns by splitting them and arranging them cut-side up on a separate baking sheet. Toast in the oven for 2-4 minutes until lightly golden.
  7. Once the cheese is melted, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Slice the giant patty into individual slider portions and lift them onto your toasted buns. Add your favorite toppings and condiments. Serve immediately.

Nutrition

Keywords: Avoid overmixing the beef to keep the patties tender. Toasting the buns adds great texture and prevents sogginess. Customize your cheese and toppings for a personal touch.
