Ingredients

For the Cheeseburgers
• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ½ white onion diced
• 8 Turano Sesame Seed Hamburger Bleacher Buns
• 12 Slices of Cheddar or American Cheese
• 16-20 pickle slices
• 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Bun Glaze
• ¼ cup unsalted butter melted (½ stick)
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard


Directions

① Preheat oven to 350°F
② Combine the beef and spices in a bowl (2 pounds lean ground beef, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 2 teaspoons ground black pepper)
③ In the large skillet set over medium-high heat, cook beef mixture until crumbled, browned and cooked through. Cut 4 cheese slices into squares and toss into the pass with the cooked beef. Mix together until the cheese has melted. Remove the beef mixture and set aside.
④ In the same large skillet set over medium-high heat add the olive oil. Add in the diced onion and stir to coat. Season with salt, pepper, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 2 tbsp brown sugar. Mix together and cook until onion is translucent and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
⑤ Separate the top and bottom buns. Keeping the grouping of 4 together, place the bottom half in the baking dish. Repeat for the other set of buns so there are 8 buns in the bottom of the pan.
⑥ Top the bottom half of the rolls with the cooked cheesy beef, then the onions, then slices of cheese in a single layer and pickles. Top with the top half of the buns.
⑦ For the glaze, in a small bowl combine melt ¼ cup unsalted butter, then mix in ½ teaspoon kosher salt, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard until well combined. Brush the tops of the buns liberally with the glaze mixture.
⑧ Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melty.
⑨ Slice into individual sliders and serve hot. Enjoy!
