• 1 tablespoon burger seasoning

Burger Sauce

• ¼ cup ketchup
• Black pepper to taste
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• ½ teaspoon dehydrated chopped onions
• 1 teaspoon pickle juice
• 1 tablespoon mustard

How to Make Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Sliders

Step 1: Prep Fries and Sauce

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook shoestring French fries until crispy following package instructions.
2. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, pickle juice, dehydrated onions, and black pepper until smooth. Set aside.

Step 2: Cook the Beef

Cook ground beef and diced onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Season with burger seasoning and cook until no longer pink. Drain excess grease, then stir in ¼ cup ketchup and mix thoroughly.

Step 3: Prepare Rolls

Slice the slider rolls horizontally and place them face up on a baking sheet, keeping the top and bottom halves separated.

Step 4: Layer the Sliders

Layer the bottom rolls with cheese slices, seasoned ground beef, burger sauce to taste, another layer of cheese, and top with crispy French fries.

Step 5: Add Tops and Butter

Cover the fries with the top halves of the rolls and brush with melted butter for golden and flavorful buns.

Step 6: Bake and Serve

Bake at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and rolls are golden. Allow to cool briefly before cutting into sliders. Serve hot with additional burger sauce for dipping.

Storage Tips

To store the leftover double cheese fry burger sliders, cover them and place them in the refrigerator. They can be stored for up to two days, but it’s recommended to enjoy them fresh for the best taste and texture, especially to retain the crispiness of the shoestring fries. When ready to eat, reheat the sliders in a preheated 300°F oven for about 10 minutes to warm them through without drying out the rolls. This will help revive the flavors and make them enjoyable again.

These sliders make a great party food option since they can be kept warm in a low oven for gatherings. Serve them hot from the oven with extra burger sauce on the side for dipping. For a complete meal, pair them with a simple coleslaw or potato salad as a delicious side dish. Whether serving them for a game day event or a casual gathering, these sliders are sure to be a hit with their indulgent flavors and convenient, handheld format that makes them easy to eat and share.

Ingredient Substitutions

If you don’t have savory butter slider rolls on hand, you can use soft dinner rolls or brioche buns as a substitute. While they may not have the exact same buttery flavor, they will still provide a delicious base for the sliders. Make sure to lightly toast the rolls before assembling the sliders to add a bit of crispiness.

For a vegetarian version of these sliders, you can swap the ground beef for plant-based alternatives like Beyond Meat or Impossible Foods. These meat substitutes mimic the texture and flavor of real beef, providing a tasty alternative for vegetarians or those looking to reduce their meat consumption. You can also experiment with different types of vegetarian cheeses to achieve a similar cheesy and melty topping for the sliders.

Serving Suggestions

For a fun and interactive serving suggestion, set up a DIY slider bar at your next gathering. Arrange all the components separately – seasoned ground beef, melted cheese, crispy shoestring fries, savory butter slider rolls, and tangy burger sauce – and let your guests build their own double cheese fry sliders to their liking. This not only adds a personal touch to the meal but also allows everyone to customize their sliders with extra toppings like bacon, jalapeños, or sautéed mushrooms for a truly unique eating experience.

To elevate the presentation of these double cheese fry sliders, consider serving them in mini fry baskets lined with checkered deli paper. This nostalgic and playful presentation mimics the feel of a classic diner or sports bar, adding an extra layer of fun to your meal. Complete the look by serving the sliders alongside mini buckets of crispy fries and ice-cold drinks for a casual and festive dining experience that’s sure to be a hit with friends and family.

FAQs for Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Sliders

Can I use a different type of cheese for these sliders?

Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese to suit your taste preferences. Cheddar, pepper jack, Swiss, or even blue cheese can all work well in these sliders.

Can I make these sliders ahead of time for a party?

While these sliders are best enjoyed fresh when the fries are crispy, you can assemble them ahead of time and store them covered in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to serve, simply reheat them in a 300°F oven for about 10 minutes to warm through.

Can I omit the pickle juice from the burger sauce?

If you’re not a fan of pickle juice, you can certainly omit it from the burger sauce. You can adjust the other seasonings to taste or add a splash of vinegar for a touch of acidity.
