  • 2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 0.5 white onion diced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Combine the beef and spices in a bowl.
  • Press the beef into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish into a flat and even layer.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Drain the liquid and set aside.
  • Slice the rolls in half lengthwise. Place the bottom half in a lined baking pan.
  • Top the bottom half of the rolls with the cooked beef.
  • In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Add in the diced onion and stir to coat. Cook until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
  • Top the beef with the cooked onions, cheese, and top half of the bun.
  • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and all other ingredients for the butter topping.
  • Brush the tops of the rolls liberally with melted butter (or pour it over) mixture and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
  • Bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melty.
  • Slice into individual sliders and serve hot. Enjoy!

Notes

Check the internal temperature of the meat in the center of the pan with an instant-read thermometer.
