BBQ Cheeseburger Sliders: Add BBQ sauce to the ground beef mixture instead of ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Top the cooked beef with American cheese slices or cheddar cheese along with chopped crispy bacon. Drizzle more BBQ sauce on top of the sliders before putting on the top half of the rolls.
Bacon cheeseburger sliders (without the BBQ sauce): Add crispy bacon slices or bacon bits to the slider after adding in the cheese.

Different types of cheese such as Pepper jack cheese, blue cheese or whatever cheese is your favorite or you’re in the mood for that day would be a yummy twist on this easy cheeseburger sliders recipe.
