Ingredients
Scale

- 1 lb sausage
- 1 lb Velveeta
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 24 slider buns
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and sausage until browned. Drain off the grease.
- In a saucepan, combine the cooked meat, Velveeta, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir on low heat until the cheese is fully melted.
- If using a crockpot instead of a saucepan and the mixture turns out too thick, add a splash of milk to adjust the consistency.
- Serve the cheesy mixture on slider buns and enjoy!
Notes
Preparation Tips
- Meat Mixture: Use fresh ground beef and sausage with moderate fat content for the best flavor and texture.
- Cheese Melting: Stir the Velveeta cheese over low heat to avoid curdling or separation.
- Toast the Buns: Lightly toast the buns to keep them from getting soggy and to add a slight crunch.
Customization Ideas
- Add jalapeños, pickles, or crispy bacon for extra flavor.
- Swap Velveeta for sharp cheddar or pepper jack for a different cheesy twist.
- Experiment with alternative meats like turkey sausage for a leaner version.
Serving Suggestions
- Pair with potato chips, fries, or coleslaw for a complete meal.
- Serve warm for the best experience; the cheese mixture is at its creamiest when freshly made.
Storage and Reheating
- Store leftover filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
- Reheat in a saucepan over low heat, adding a splash of milk to restore the creamy consistency.
- Reheat assembled sliders wrapped in foil in a 350°F oven for 10–15 minutes.
