Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1 (1 oz) packet ranch seasoning mix, divided
• 2 jalapeños, seeded and finely diced
• 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
• ¼ small red onion, thinly sliced
• 12 slider buns
• 2 tablespoons salted butter
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Step by Step Instructions

STEP ONE – Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet or 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.

STEP TWO – Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.

STEP THREE – Stir the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper into the beef until evenly combined. Remove from the heat.

STEP FOUR – In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth with a hand mixer. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and ¾ of the ranch seasoning until well combined.

STEP FIVE – Slice the slider buns in half, keeping the tops and bottoms together if possible. Place the bottom half on the prepared baking sheet.

STEP SIX – Evenly spread the seasoned ground beef over the buns. Sprinkle with the diced jalapeños, crumbled bacon, and sliced red onion.

STEP SEVEN – Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the top buns , then place the top buns on.

STEP EIGHT – In a small bowl, melt the butter. Add the remaining ranch seasoning and chopped parsley, then whisk together. Brush generously over the tops of the buns.

STEP NINE – Cover loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 to 8 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the filling is hot and melty.

STEP TEN – Let the sliders cool for 2 to 3 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
