Servings: persons

⅓ cups Pickled Jalapenos, Finely Chopped
3/4 cups Bread And Butter Pickles, Finely Chopped
3 Tablespoons Minced Red Onion
1 clove Garlic, Minced
2 teaspoons Pickle Juice
1 pinch Coarse Black Pepper
3 slices Cooked Bacon, Crumbled
1/2 cups Grated Smoked Cheddar Cheese
1 pound Ground Beef (use Beef With At Least 10% Fat, Preferably 20%)
1/2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
1/2 teaspoons Coarse Black Pepper
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
14 whole Slider Buns

1
In a small bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the jalapeno relish.
2
Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
3
In a small bowl, combine the crumbled bacon and grated cheese.
4
Use your hands to form the bacon and cheese mixture into 14 small balls.
5
Theyll be very coarse balls, but the heat from your hands will help them stick together.
6
Place the ground beef, salt and black pepper in a medium bowl.
7
Mix until just combined.
8
(Just use your hands, people.)
9
Now its time to make your slider patties.
10
Divide the beef into 14 balls (each should be about a heaping tablespoon.)
11
Flatten each ball into a pancake about 1/4-inch thick.
12
Place one of the bacon-cheese balls in the center of the beef.
13
Gently fold the beef around the cheese, making sure its completely sealed within the beef, and flatten the patty slightly.
14
(Each patty should be 1 3/4-inches in diameter.)
15
Heat the oil in large skillet or pan over medium-high heat.
16
Add the sliders and cook for about 1 1/2-2 minutes on each side until the beef is cooked through and the hidden cheese has had time to melt.
17
Depending on the size of your pan, you may find it easier to do this in two batches.
18
If you like toasted buns (who doesnt?
19
), now is the time to throw them on the grill or under the broiler for 30 seconds.
20
Place each slider on a bun and add a dollop of ketchup, if youre into that.
21
Top with jalapeno relish and go to town!
