Meat Mixture
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 lb sausage (any variety: breakfast, Italian, or mild)
Cheese Mixture
- 1 lb Velveeta cheese (cubed for easier melting)
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp onion powder
Assembly
- Cook the Meat: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and sausage together until browned and fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease to prevent the sliders from becoming too oily.
- Prepare the Filling: Transfer the cooked meat to a saucepan set over low heat. Add the cubed Velveeta cheese, black pepper, and onion powder to the meat mixture. Stir constantly until the cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Sliders: Split the slider buns and toast them lightly, if desired. Spoon a generous portion of the meat and cheese mixture onto the bottom half of each slider bun. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the sliders warm and enjoy immediately!
Notes
- You can choose any type of sausage based on your flavor preference: breakfast, Italian, or mild.
- To reduce grease, make sure to drain the cooked meats well before mixing with cheese.
- Lightly toasting the slider buns adds extra texture and prevents sogginess.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some chopped jalapeños to the cheese mixture.
- These sliders are best served fresh and warm but can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
