Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 2 tbsp Tomato paste
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp Brown sugar
- 2 tsp Yellow mustard
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 6 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 12 Slider buns
- 3 tbsp Butter, melted
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all ingredients. Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
Place the bottom halves of the slider buns into the prepared baking dish. Spread the sloppy joe mixture evenly across the buns.
Lay the cheddar cheese slices over the sloppy joe mixture, overlapping slightly to ensure full coverage.
Place the top halves of the slider buns on top, creating sandwiches.
Brush the top of each bun with melted butter and sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the tops, if using.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the tops of the buns are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the Sloppy Castle cool for 5 minutes before serving. Pull apart the sliders and enjoy!
