Barbecue Meatloaf & Cheddar Oven Sliders

Ingredients

2 lb. ground beef

2 eggs, beaten

15 saltine crackers, crushed

1 1/2 tsp. creole seasoning

4 tbsp. Worcestershire, divided

1 (8oz) can tomato sauce

1 C. ketchup

2/3 C. brown sugar

1 tsp. mustard

5 slices cheddar

9 slider buns

1 small red onion, sliced into rings (if desired)

Mayo & mustard (optional)

Directions

1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed sheet pan with foil.

2) Mix beef, eggs, cracker crumbs, seasoning, 3 tbsp. Worcestershire, and tomato sauce until combined. Do not over mix.

3) Form into 9 small patties. Press your finger into the center of each patty to form an indentation. This minimizes shrinking while cooking.

4) Place each patty onto foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 35 minutes.

5) While patties are baking, make sauce by mixing ketchup, brown sugar, mustard and 1 tbsp. Worcestershire.

6) Remove patties from oven and baste each one using all of the sauce. Bake for 10 more minutes.

7) Remove from oven. Place half of a cheddar slice onto each patty. Top with a few red onion rings. Place onto slider bun. Secure with a toothpick, if desired.

When I did this I actually was able to get more than 9 sliders made. So depending on how big or how much beef you use depends on how many. Since most slider packages come with at least 12 buns I was able to get that made without any issue. They came out great and taste just as great too...
