Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon liquid smoke optional
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 slices deli style American cheese
  • 8 slider buns
  • 23 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt more or less to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder more or less to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, seasoned salt, and garlic powder thoroughly by hand.
  2. Divide the mixture into 8 equal parts and flatten each to a patty slightly bigger than the buns to accommodate shrinkage.
  3. Place patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer; cook in batches if necessary.
  4. Air fry at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, turning the patties halfway through until they reach preferred doneness, keeping in mind 160 degrees for well done.
  5. Cut each slice of cheese in half and place a half slice on each cooked patty. Return the basket to the air fryer with the heat off for 1 minute to melt the cheese.
  6. While patties cook, butter the slider buns lightly and toast them in a hot skillet until golden brown.
  7. For the sauce, whisk mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and white vinegar together, then season with garlic salt and chili powder to your taste.
  8. Assemble sliders by placing patties on buns, topping with desired condiments and sauce. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • To keep the burgers warm when cooking in batches, assemble them with buns and wrap in foil or cover the patties with foil if buns are kept separate
  • The second batch may cook faster since the air fryer will be preheated
  • start checking doneness around 8 minutes
