Cheeseburger Sliders
By James Brace
- Serves
- 2

Ingredients
- 1 packet Hawaiian rolls
- 750 g–1 kg beef mince (20% fat)
- 1–2 packets sliced burger cheese
- Salt, to season
- 50 g unsalted butter
- 14 rashers streaky smoked bacon
Directions
- Preheat your griddle to medium–high heat.
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally to create a single top layer and a single bottom layer.
- Add a little butter to the griddle and lightly toast the cut sides of both the top and bottom rolls. Set aside.
- If your Hawaiian rolls came in a tray, keep it—you can use it as a guide for shaping your burger patty.
- Form the beef mince into one large patty, slightly larger than the surface area of the rolls. Season the top generously with salt.
- Place the bacon rashers onto the griddle and cook until crisp, turning once. Remove and set aside.
- Place the beef patty onto the griddle, seasoned side down. Season the top while it cooks.
- When ready to flip, turn the patty into the bacon fat left on the griddle for extra flavour.
- After flipping, layer the patty with slices of burger cheese. Cover with a Blackstone cloche or hood and allow the cheese to melt completely.
- Carefully transfer the cheesy beef patty onto the bottom layer of the toasted rolls.
- Chop the cooked bacon and evenly distribute it over the melted cheese—make sure every bite gets bacon.
- Add the top layer of rolls, pressing gently to set. (You can do this final step on the griddle if desired.)
- Slice into sliders, serve, and enjoy the compliments.
