Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 12 slider buns
  • 6 slices American cheese, halved
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • Dill pickle slices, ketchup, mustard (optional)

Method
 

  1. Mix the beef, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then form into 12 even balls.
  2. Sear the balls on a hot griddle over medium-high heat, smashing each into a thin patty. Cook 2 minutes per side.
  3. Flip the patties, top with cheese, cover, and cook 1 minute until melted.
  4. Brush the cut sides of the buns with melted butter, toast in the pan for 30 to 60 seconds, then assemble sliders and serve hot.

Notes

If you cannot fit all 12 patties in one batch, cook in two rounds and keep the first batch warm on a sheet pan in a 200°F oven. The sliders are best right after assembling, while the buns are still warm from the toast and the cheese is fully melted.
