Ingredients:
For the Beef Patties:
- 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
- Salt and pepper to season
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
For the Cheese:
- 4 small pieces of your preferred cheese (e.g., cheddar, Swiss, American), about 1/4 inch thick
For the “Buns”:
- 8 slices of halloumi cheese, approximately 1/4 inch thick
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, and season it with salt and pepper. Form the mixture into small, slider-sized patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.
- Preheat a grill or a stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Make sure it’s hot before you start cooking.
- In a separate skillet, heat it over medium heat and add the halloumi slices for the “buns.” Cook them for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and have grill marks. Set them aside.
- Place the beef patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your burgers more well-done.
- During the last minute of cooking, add your preferred cheese on each patty to melt.
- Take a slice of halloumi as the bottom “bun.” Add a beef patty with your chosen melted cheese on top.
- Place another slice of halloumi as the top “bun.”
- Secure each slider with a toothpick to hold everything together.
- Serve your delicious Double Cheese Beef Sliders, and enjoy!
