Sliders with Spicy Berry Sauce image

For patriotic food, you can't beat a burger. My sliders have red tomatoes, white cheddar and blueberry sauce. For extra pop, I mix in ginger beer and chipotle. -Crystal Schlueter, Northglenn, Colorado

Yield 2 dozen.

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup ginger beer or ginger ale
1/2 cup balsamic ketchup
2 tablespoons steak sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
SLIDERS:
2 packages (12 ounces each) Hawaiian sweet rolls

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine the first eight ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 15-20 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Cool slightly. Transfer to a food processor; process until pureed. Reserve 1/4 cup sauce for brushing burgers., For sliders, split rolls horizontally in half. Spread bottoms with butter. In a large bowl, combine beef, salt and pepper, mixing lightly, but thoroughly. Shape into twenty-four 1/2-in.-thick patties, pressing an indentation in the center of each., In two batches, grill burgers, covered, over medium heat 3-4 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160°, brushing tops with reserved sauce after turning. Top with cheese; grill, covered, 15-30 seconds longer or until melted. Serve on rolls with onion, tomatoes and remaining sauce.

These sliders were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I will definitely be making these again, but I will use a milder sauce next time.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but I thought these sliders were great! The sauce was just the right amount of heat and the beef patties were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making these again.
