Blackstone Crispy Cheeseburger Sliders are tiny smashed burgers topped with shredded cheese that gets crispy for a unique and delicious slider
Cut a pound of ground beef into 12 pieces and roll each in a ball.
Preheat the griddle to medium high heat for several minutes. Once hot spread some vegetable oil and place the burgers on the griddle. Press very flat a few times with a burger press or hibachi spatula.
Season with kosher salt and pepper and flip them after 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle the cheese over top, some will get on the griddle to create the crispy cheese.
Note: I put the slider buns on the griddle cut side down for a minute to warm and toast them slightly.
Turn the griddle of right after sprinkling the cheese so the cheese on the griddle doesn't burn. Use a melting dome if you have one. Remove the burgers once the cheese has melted.
Note: The crispy cheese may stick the burgers together so I found it best to remove all of them and place on a baking sheet and cut them apart using kitchen scissors.
Serve the burgers with the crispy cheese on slider buns with toppings of choice such as burger sauce, ketchup, lettuce, and pickles.
