Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons butter divided
- 2 large sweet onions sliced
- 1 tablespoon water optional
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 2 tablespoons beef base such as Better than Boullion®, divided
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce divided
- kosher salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 24 slider buns
- 12-16 ounces Gruyère or Swiss cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter.
- Add the onions to the melted butter, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly caramelized, about 25-30 minutes. If the onions start to look dry or burnt, add the water.
- In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with 1/2 of the beef base and 1/2 of the Worcestershire sauce.
- Season the beef mixture with the salt and the pepper.
- Add the beef mixture to the onions.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and cook the beef mixture, breaking it up and mixing it into the onions, until browned.
- Drain the excess grease from the beef mixture.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Lightly grease a large baking sheet.
- Separate the tops from the bottoms of the slider buns.
- Arrange the slider bun bottoms tightly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Evenly distribute the beef mixture over the bottom buns.
- Top the beef mixture with the cheese and cover with the top buns.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the remaining butter with the remaining beef base in the microwave.
- Stir the remaining Worcestershire sauce into the butter mixture until it is well-combined.
- Use a pastry brush to brush the butter mixture evenly over the top buns.
- Sprinkle the buns with the sesame seeds, the thyme, the onion powder, and the garlic powder.
- Bake the sliders until the cheese fully melts and the bun tops are lightly brown, about 20 minutes.
- Serve.
