Instead of making tiny individual burger patties on the grill, try a clever hack for serving up hamburger sliders at your next party using a sheet pan and then cutting them after baking!
It’s such a tasty and budget-friendly idea that’s super easy to throw together and bake in the oven for a simple dinner or fun game-day appetizer. Feel free to season the ground beef to your liking, as well as add desired cheese and toppings.
I’ve had people ask,“Does baking the beef give it a weird texture?” Honestly, no it doesn’t! It’s more like meatloaf, but it’s still just as tasty!

Tips for making cheeseburger sliders for a crowd:
- This recipe makes about 12 two-inch-sized square beef sliders, and King’s Hawaiian brand rolls fit perfectly. Try the King’s Hawaiian pretzel rolls with this recipe as a change of pace. My family loves them!
- You can easily double this recipe for a larger crowd. As far as what pans to use, I baked my sliders in a 10×15 sheet pan with a rim. You can use an 8×13 casserole dish instead if desired.
- Feel free to assemble each slider after cooking and serve them on a platter, or set up a buffet and let people add their own burger fixings.
- Consider making some easy copycat Big Mac sauce to go along with your sliders!

Here’s what my teammate Jenna thought of this cheese burger sliders recipe :
“Oh wow, I loved learning how to make sliders using the oven! My daughter was having a few friends over for a start-of-summer sleepover and these were the perfect entrée for a room full of teens watching a scary movie. They were so easy to throw together and fun! The kids all loved them and so did I, so I will absolutely be making these again!”
