Ingredients
The following ingredients have 8 Servings
- 1/2 cup Kaukauna® Cheese Spread (Port Wine flavor)
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 Tbs sun-dried tomato in olive oil (finely chopped)
- 1 lb ground beef
- kosher salt
- fresh cracked pepper
- green leaf lettuce (torn into slider-sized pieces)
- red onion (thinly sliced)
- barbecue sauce of choice
- 8 slider buns
Instruction
- Heat the oven broiler to high heat.
- In a bowl, combine the Kaukauna® Cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and sun-dried tomato. Set aside in the refrigerator.
- Divide the meat into 8 portions. Take a portion, divide, and press onto a rimmed bake sheet to form 2 very thin patties (~3-inches wide; using the bake sheet makes this easy). Repeat with the rest of the meat. Season with salt and pepper.
- Scoop ~1/2 Tbs of cheese filling onto a meat pattie. Take another pattie and lay on top. Press around the edges to seal. Gently pick up the stuffed burger and shape into a proper slider. Repeat to end up with 8 stuffed burgers.
- Broil the burgers on the rimmed bake sheet 2-1/2 to 3-inches below the broiler, 4 minutes. Flip, and broil another 4 minutes. Remove from the oven.
- Serve the Port Cheese Stuffed Sliders in little buns with lettuce, red onion, and BBQ sauce. Yields: 8 sliders.
