Sloppy Joe Sliders

These sloppy Joe sliders have all of the original flavors of classic sloppy Joes but in slider form. Browned beef is mixed with a slightly sweet and tangy sauce before being baked on buttery slider buns.

Ingredients :
  • 1.5 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 cup white onion , chopped
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 12 slider buns
  • 16 ounces mild cheddar cheese , shredded
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon homemade Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds
Directions :
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.

  2. Cut the slider buns lengthwise using a serrated knife and place bottoms on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy clean up.

  3. In a large skillet over medium high heat, saute the onions and ground beef until the beef is no longer pink and the onions soften.

  4. Stir in the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce is combined with the meat and it starts to thicken. Remove from the heat.

  6. Sprinkle half of the cheese on the slider bun bottoms. Top with sloppy joe mixture evenly between the buns and top with remaining cheese. Add the tops of the buns back.

  7. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and add the Italian seasoning.

  8. Brush over the slider bun tops. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds.

  9. Bake for 10-15 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  10. Remove from the oven and serve warm.

  11. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
