Serve these meatloaf sliders at your next party and everyone will be asking you for the recipe. Made with a unique way of baking the meatloaf seasoned burger and topped with french fried onions, cheddar and a sweet and tangy sauce.
Meatloaf sliders are a crowd-pleaser for sure. I made these with football season in mind. Can you say Super Bowl party food? But these little sandwiches would be welcome at any gathering – even a family dinner. My son in particular loved these meatloaf sliders.
Watch how to make Meatloaf Sliders:
I saw this specific technique for cooking ground beef for sliders HERE and really thought it was so smart! But instead of just a plain cheeseburger slider I wanted to create something a little more unique. Lots of people like meatloaf. That sweet and tangy ketchup sauce served on top of a traditional meatloaf makes a really tasty topping for sliders. Add some fried onions and cheddar cheese and we’ve got some seriously delicious sandwiches.
These meatloaf sliders take practically no time to throw together which is my kind of party food – quick and simple but with a WOW factor. Sliders are pretty standard these days – ham and cheese, meatball, buffalo chicken. But I hadn’t tried a meatloaf slider until now. Put these on your menu for your next gathering.
