Time 40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 slices bacon
8 ounces 93% lean ground beef
½ cup panko bread crumbs
¾ cup barbeque sauce (such as Sweet Baby Ray's®), divided
1 tablespoon steak sauce
10 slices pepper Jack cheese
10 slider buns
10 slices cooked bacon
¼ cup slivered onion
¼ cup roasted red pepper, cut into strips

Steps:

  • Attach the meat grinder attachment to an electric stand mixer (such as KitchenAid®). Run enough bacon through the meat grinder to make 8 ounces ground bacon.
  • Combine ground bacon, beef, bread crumbs, 1/4 cup barbeque sauce, and steak sauce in a bowl. Mix until well combined and shape into 2-inch round balls. Set meatballs on a baking sheet.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake meatballs until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 25 minutes.
  • Place a slice of cheese on top each meatball. Toast slider buns if desired. Place a meatball between each slider bun. Top with cooked bacon slices, onion, remaining barbeque sauce, and roasted red bell peppers.

TANGY BBQ MEATBALL SLIDERS

Sure, you can buy frozen meatballs and bottled BBQ sauce, but homemade is well worth the effort. These sliders are great Game Day snacks or bite-sized party appetizers. We like our sliders with coleslaw, but a little cheese wouldn't hurt either.

Time 1h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 22

cooking spray
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups ketchup
⅔ cup molasses (such as Grandma's®)
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ tablespoons dry mustard powder (such as Colman's®)
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®), or to taste
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
½ pound ground beef
½ pound ground pork
¾ cup fresh bread crumbs
¼ cup milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
1 teaspoon grill seasoning (such as Montreal Steak Seasoning®)
1 clove garlic, minced
12 slider-size burger buns

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a baking rack sprayed with nonstick cooking spray onto a foil-lined baking pan.
  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and saute for about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add ketchup, molasses, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, hot sauce, and cayenne pepper; mix well. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes. Add a bit of water if sauce gets too thick.
  • Meanwhile, combine beef, pork, bread crumbs, milk, egg, mustard, steak seasoning, and garlic in a bowl. Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to form meat mixture into balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Place meatballs on the rack, leaving enough space between them so they'll brown on all sides.
  • Bake meatballs in the preheated oven until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Gently stir meatballs into the BBQ sauce. Simmer until meatballs are heated through, 10 to 15 minutes. Divide saucy meatballs among the slider buns.
