🥘 Ingredients

15 items

• 1 pound ground beef
• 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 pieces slider buns

📝 Instructions

12 steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.

2. Divide the meat mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into small patties, slightly larger than the slider buns to account for shrinkage during cooking.

3. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the pan with a bit of butter or oil.

4. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through to your desired level of doneness.

5. Place a half slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.

6. While the patties are cooking, prepare the Cajun mayo by mixing mayonnaise and hot sauce in a small bowl. Adjust the heat to your taste preference.

7. Lightly toast the slider buns using 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet or griddle until golden brown.

8. Assemble the sliders by spreading a thin layer of Cajun mayo on the bottom half of each bun.

9. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top of the mayo layer.

10. Add a slice of pickle, a piece of lettuce, and a tomato slice on top of each patty.

11. Finish with the top half of the slider bun and secure with a toothpick if desired.

12. Serve immediately and enjoy!
