Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 4 oz Cheddar cheese, cut into small squares
- 12 Slider buns
- 12 Miniature dill pickles
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 0.25 cup Mustard
- 6 Lettuce leaves, cut into small pieces
- 12 Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 12 Mini skewers or toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat a grill, skillet, or stovetop griddle over medium-high heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Form the seasoned ground beef into 12 small patties, roughly 2 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch thick.
Cook the patties on the preheated grill or skillet for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
In the last minute of cooking, place a small square of cheddar cheese on each patty and allow it to melt slightly.
While the patties are cooking, slice the slider buns in half if they aren't pre-split. Lightly toast them if desired.
Assemble the burger bites by placing a lettuce piece on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the cooked beef patty with melted cheese.
Top each patty with a small dollop of ketchup and mustard, a slice of pickle, and a cherry tomato half.
Place the top half of each bun over the toppings and secure the burger bite with a skewer or toothpick to hold everything in place.
Serve immediately as a fun and flavorful appetizer or snack!
