Smashed Double Cheeseburger Sliders Recipe

Falafel Pita Sliders Recipe

We make falafel patties instead of balls because the wide, flat surface area gets extra crisp when seared and baked, a lighter approach to shallow frying. Use any stuffers you like for the sandwiches, or load up as the Israelis do with a chopped cucumber and tomato salad, pickled cabbage, and tahini sauce. This recipe goes with: Falafel Pizza, Falafel, Feta, and Tomato Salad

Instant Pot Pork Sliders with Watermelon Barbecue Sauce Recipe

This has all the flavor and tenderness of all-day barbecue, but comes together in a few hours. The watermelon juice replaces the stock usually found in Instant Pot or slow cooker pulled pork recipes, and the rind gives the sauce from extra body. The pork’s sweetness resembles that of al pastor, so it would work just as well in tacos as it does in sliders. 

Turkey Sliders Recipe

Light the grill for crowd-pleasing, mini turkey burgers — because size doesn't always have to matter. Patty on water rolls and top with pepperoncini peppers, if desired.

Country Fried Beef Biscuit Sliders Recipe

Buttery, tender biscuits are the perfect vehicle for Roast Beef Steaks and the Mustard sauce is just tart enough to balance the richness of the meat. This country spin on a slider is decadent, comforting, and crowd-pleasing; great for Super Bowl get-togethers, brunch, or a cold winter morning. We love adding Pickled Red Onion for added flavor and color. White Lily self-rising flour makes the biscuits a breeze, but if you need to save time, just use your favorite brand of frozen biscuit. 

Pork and Charred Pineapple Sliders Recipe

Hawaii’s traditional Kalua pork requires a beach pit, a whole hog, and a day’s worth of smoking. Our weeknight version delivers all the flavor with a fraction of the effort—no shovel required. Pineapple pulls double duty in this recipe—caramelized rings add smoky sweetness, while the just-tangy-enough pineapple juice makes the slaw a tasty stand-alone side dish. Save time by picking up a peeled and cored pineapple in the produce section—the flavor is far superior to canned rings.

Breakfast Biscuit Sliders Recipe

We took the classic sausage biscuit sandwich and made it mini. Adorable breakfast sliders, you have our hearts. 

Make a tray of small biscuits by baking the whole batch close together in a pan, then slicing the warm pastries into neat little squares. Next up: sheet tray eggs (add vegetables if you’re so inclined), then cover them with sliced American cheese. Cut the cheese-covered eggs into squares the same size as the biscuit, then assemble your sandwich—don’t forget the tiny sausage patty, and sides of Sriracha and mayo for dipping.
