Indulge in quick Korean BBQ Beef Sliders with spicy kimchi aioli for a dinner bursting with flavor and texture. Perfect for a quick comfort fix!
Ingredients
- • Ground beef: 1 lb (80/20 blend for juiciness)
- • Soy sauce: 2 tablespoons
- • Sesame oil: 1 tablespoon
- • Brown sugar: 1 tablespoon
- • Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Ground ginger: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Slider buns: 8
- • Butter: 2 tablespoons (for toasting buns)
- • Kimchi: 1/2 cup (finely chopped)
- • Mayonnaise: 1/2 cup
- • Sriracha: 1 tablespoon
- • Green onions: 2 (thinly sliced)
- • Fresh cucumber slices: 1/2 cup
- • Fresh cilantro: 1/4 cup (chopped)
- • Salt and pepper: to taste
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. This ensures a quick and even sear on your beef patties, locking in the juices.
- 2 In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic powder, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- 3 Form the mixture into eight small patties, approximately the size of your slider buns. Press your thumb into the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.
- 4 Grill the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. The sugar in the marinade will help create a caramelized crust.
- 5 While the patties are cooking, prepare the spicy kimchi aioli by mixing the chopped kimchi, mayonnaise, and sriracha in a small bowl. Adjust the sriracha according to your spice preference.
- 6 In a separate pan, melt the butter and toast the slider buns until golden brown and crisp. This step adds an irresistible crunch to each bite.
- 7 To assemble the sliders, spread a generous amount of kimchi aioli on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a grilled beef patty on top, followed by cucumber slices, a sprinkle of green onions, and a few cilantro leaves. Cover with the top bun and serve immediately.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Korean BBQ Beef Sliders pair perfectly with a side of crispy sweet potato fries or a refreshing Asian slaw. Complement the meal with a cold lager or a light, fruity soda to balance the spicy and savory flavors. For a fun twist, serve with a side of pickled radishes or kimchi to add a crunchy, tangy contrast. These sliders are also great for a casual dinner party or a game-day feast where you want to impress your guests with something truly unique.
Storage Tips
If you have any leftovers, store the cooked beef patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them on a skillet over medium heat or in a microwave until warmed through. The kimchi aioli can be stored separately in the fridge for up to a week. Toast fresh buns before serving again to maintain the desired crunch.
