Servings 6 sliders

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 tsp creole seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • salt + pepper to taste
  • Bag of slider buns
  • Bag of frozen onion rings
  • 6 slices swiss or white cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Start by warming 1 tbsp of cooking oil in your skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Begin seasoning your ground beef, then form 6-8 slider sized “meatballs” (you’ll be turning it into a patty soon).
  • Once you’ve assembled your “meatballs”, begin by placing a couple on your hot skillet and flatten into a patty with your spatula. This will give it a nice sear and help the burger hold together better.
  • Let cook on the skillet about 3-4 minutes per side or until fully cooked through. Optional - With about 1-2 minutes left (after flipping), place a small slice of Swiss or white cheddar cheese on top of the patty to melt while it finishes cooking.
  • While your burgers cook, throw enough onion rings into your air fryer or oven and cook according to packaged directions. (Roughly 8-10 minutes).
  • Once the patties are fully cooked, prepare your slider buns with a healthy swipe of your favorite bbq sauce. Top with your patty, onion ring and any additional topping you prefer. Serve & enjoy your at home rodeo burger dupe!
