Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the onion for about 3 minutes until softened.
Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into small crumbles.
Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Flatten each biscuit into a circle about 4 inches wide.
Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center.
Top with half a slice or one slice of cheddar cheese.
Fold the dough around the filling and pinch the edges tightly to seal.
Place the sliders seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops with beaten egg.
Brush lightly with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
Brush with additional melted butter after baking and garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve warm.
Best Tips
Allow the beef filling to cool slightly before assembling the sliders to prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
Seal the biscuit dough completely to keep the cheese from leaking during baking.
Use freshly shredded or sliced cheese for the best melt and flavor.
Avoid overfilling the biscuits to ensure they bake evenly.
Best Ingredient Options
Swap cheddar for Colby Jack or Monterey Jack for a creamier filling.
Use ground sirloin for extra-rich beef flavor.
Replace biscuit dough with homemade biscuit dough if preferred.
Add diced jalapeños for a spicy kick.
Recipe Variations
Mix cooked bacon into the beef filling for bacon cheeseburger sliders.
Add sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese.
Include diced pickles inside the filling for authentic burger flavor.
Use pepper jack cheese for extra heat.
Top with garlic butter instead of plain butter.
What to Serve With
French fries make the perfect classic side.
Potato wedges pair beautifully with the cheesy filling.
A fresh green salad balances the richness.
Coleslaw adds a refreshing crunch.
