# What You'll Need:

→ For the Sliders

01 - 1 lb ground beef
02 - 1 lb sausage
03 - 1 lb Velveeta cheese
04 - ½ tsp black pepper
05 - ½ tsp onion powder
06 - 24 slider buns

# Let's Cook!:

01 - In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and sausage until browned. Drain off the grease.
02 - In a saucepan, combine the cooked meat, Velveeta, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir on low heat until the cheese is fully melted.
03 - If using a crockpot instead of a saucepan and the mixture turns out too thick, add a splash of milk to adjust the consistency.
04 - Serve the cheesy mixture on slider buns and enjoy!

# Cook's Notes:

01 - Use fresh ground beef and sausage with moderate fat content for the best flavor and texture.
02 - Stir the Velveeta cheese over low heat to avoid curdling or separation.
03 - Lightly toast the buns to keep them from getting soggy and to add a slight crunch.
04 - Add jalapeños, pickles, or crispy bacon for extra flavor.
05 - Swap Velveeta for sharp cheddar or pepper jack for a different cheesy twist.
06 - Experiment with alternative meats like turkey sausage for a leaner version.
07 - Pair with potato chips, fries, or coleslaw for a complete meal.
08 - Serve warm for the best experience; the cheese mixture is at its creamiest when freshly made.
09 - Store leftover filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
10 - Reheat in a saucepan over low heat, adding a splash of milk to restore the creamy consistency.
11 - Reheat assembled sliders wrapped in foil in a 350°F oven for 10–15 minutes.
