Sliders

I love a good Barbecued burger. The new trendy thing seems to be the slider, little mini hamburgers. I bought this handy slider making tool.
Of course you could easily form them by hand but seriously how fun is this thing. It also came with a little cutter, to cut full sized buns into smaller ones, but sliders are so popular now that you can find special slider buns right in the grocery store.

What you need,

1 lb. ground beef
1 egg
¼ cup bread crumbs

½ tsp season salt
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp dry mustard

1 tsp Montreal steak spice

Gently mix all the ingredients until just combined. Don't over mix!! This makes tough burgers.
Put a little ball of the mixture in the slider press to form the burgers.

So cute...


These would be so great for a party! But beware it is easy to eat 3 or 4 of these little puppies!
Happy Grilling!

    These are precious (and probably are a heck of a lot better than those nasty White Castle ones!)
    Where did you find the slider maker? I really love the colors, they'd go great with my kitchen

    I adore mini food. I had my eye on a similar burger press. I know you can do by hand but, yours look so great. Love the plate of food it screams summer time.

    Thanks guys for all the nice comments! Tiny things are better!

    Savannah, I got the slider maker at Gourmet Warehouse here in Vancouver. The brand is Charcoal Companion.
