- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 8 oz Velveeta-style cheese, cubed

- 1/4 cup pickled banana peppers (optional)
- For the buttery topping:
- 4 tbsp butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and turkey sausage until browned. Drain excess fat.
- Season meat with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir in diced onion and cook 2 minutes more.
- Slice slider buns in half horizontally and place bottom halves in the baking dish.
- Spread meat mixture evenly over the buns.
- Scatter cheese cubes and banana peppers over the meat.
- Place top halves of the buns on.
- Mix melted butter with garlic powder and parsley, then brush over the tops.
- Cover loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- Uncover and bake another 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and tops are golden.
- Rest briefly, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option, if desired.
- For extra heat, add sliced jalapeños or pepper rings.
- If Velveeta-style cheese isn’t available, use a similar processed cheese blend that melts well.
- Let the sliders rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep them together.
