Notes
Tips
- Always drain your beef after cooking it to avoid greasy sliders. Even lean ground beef releases some fat as it cooks.
- Stir your beef and onions frequently to prevent the onions from burning. The same holds true when sauteing your onions before adding them to the sliders.
- Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the rolls. This prevents them from getting smashed as you cut them.
- I recommend a glass baking dish for these sliders. If you use a metal baking dish, especially a dark one, reduce your baking time a bit.
