Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until evenly blended.
- Spread the beef in a single even rectangle on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, until the beef is fully cooked. Check with a meat thermometer (160°F/71°C).
- Remove the sheet and carefully drain any excess fat.
- While the beef bakes, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard in a small bowl. Stir in half the chopped onion if desired.
Assembly
- Slice the slider buns in half horizontally and arrange the bottoms on a second large baking sheet.
- Spread the sauce over each bottom bun.
- Place the cooked beef rectangle on top of the bun bottoms and layer cheddar slices, pickles, and remaining onion.
- Top with bun tops and brush with melted butter.
Baking
- Return the assembled sliders to the oven and bake an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese is melty and the buns are golden.
- Remove from the oven, let rest a few minutes, then cut into 12 individual sliders.
- Serve warm.
Notes
For a party, serve with extra sauce for dipping, pickles, and jalapeños. To make an appetizer platter, cut sliders into smaller bites.
