Party Sliders

When you want smash-burger flavor without the fuss, Century Farm ground chuck makes the perfect party slider. Set up a slider bar so everyone can build their favorite — and keep plenty of lettuce on hand for a bun-free slider salad. Allow 2–3 sliders per person.

Ingredients

• Century Farm ground chuck (2–3 sliders per person)
• Hawaiian slider buns, buttered
