What Type Of Ingredients Should I Use

For the best taste, use fresh ingredients. Choose lean ground beef for a juicy patty. Look for fresh slider buns that are soft and fluffy. If you can, buy whole pickles and chop them yourself for better flavor. Fresh lettuce adds nice crunch, and American cheese melts perfectly.

When handling meat, make sure it stays cold until you cook it. If you use frozen beef, thaw it overnight in the fridge before cooking. Always drain any fat from the cooked meat to keep your sliders from being greasy.
