These sliders were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of brown sugar in the sauce next time. I still enjoyed them, though.

I made these sliders with ground turkey instead of beef, and they were still really good! I liked the tangy flavor of the sauce. I will definitely be making these again.
