In
a conventional oven
To
get started, use two same size cookie sheets & 2- layers of aluminum foil.
2-
lbs. hamburger, (you can use ground chuck but 90% lean works just as well)
1-large
sweet onion (finely chopped or sliced into thin onion rings)
For
Mudflap Sliders use 3- tbsp. of my All Purpose Dry Rub or Prairie Dust. Or, use
my All Purpose Sugar Free, only 2-tbsp will be needed.
Mix seasoning & meat together before cooking
For
regular sliders only use salt and pepper to taste and mix seasoning meat before
cooking
Make
patties bun size (about 8 burgers) and make a dip in the center of the raw
hamburger patties (this will keep the burgers flat)
Preheat
oven to 400 degrees
Cover
the first cookie sheet with aluminum foil
Place
the 8-patties on the cookie sheet and cover with onions
Add
another layer of foil covering the patties and the entirety cookie sheet (spray
bottom of this layer of foil with cooking spray to keep the onions from
sticking)
Place
second cookie sheet over top layer of foil (this works like a large hamburger
press)
Bake
for 35 to 45 mins. Carefully remove top cookie sheet and expose the patties of bacon
and remove top layer of foil (very hot)
Now
combine these two tips and you’ll have Mudflap’s Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders.
