Ingredients

• 2 pounds of lean ground beef

Tabañero Hot Sauce-Infused Spicy Ketchup

• 1 cup of ketchup
• ½ tablespoon of Tabañero Original Hot Sauce

Instructions

Warn everyone about Uncle Kenny’s antics before preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Add the lean ground beef, diced onion, and eggs to a large mixing bowl. Season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder and mix. Shape the beef mixture into 12 small slider-sized patties.

Coat a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease it with melted butter. Arrange the slider patties on a baking sheet, place them in the oven, and bake for 15 minutes.

While the beef slider patties are baking, make the Tabañero Original Hot Sauce-infused spicy ketchup. Combine the ketchup and Tabañero Original Hot Sauce in a small mixing bowl.

Coat the buns with the Tabañero Hot Sauce-infused spicy ketchup. Once baked, layer the beef slider patties and sliced cheese on the buns.

Serve the cheeseburger sliders warm with any remaining Tabañero Hot Sauce-infused spicy ketchup dipping sauce. Prepare for Uncle Kenny’s chaotic arrival at the tailgate.
