sliders on the grill w/ homemade buns

I'm writing this recipe down now as I prepare this delicious tiny hamburgers!  
What is better than a bacon cheddar cheese burger?  3 tiny bacon cheeseburgers!


Ingredients: (yields about thirty 3 ounce burgers)

5 lbs ground beef
6 cloves garlic (if you don't love garlic, like me, use 3)
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon pepper
1 tablespoon ground mustard powder
3 tablespoons steak sauce
1 generous squirt of Siracha ("cock sauce")
2 eggs beaten
1/2 cup bread crumbs

* For BUNS see homemade dinner roll recipe- Portion into 2 ounce balls*

Mash all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and knead for about ten minutes until fully incorporated.  Your hands will probably get cold from the beef so a break in between is suggested.  Portion patties into 2 1/2 to 3 ounces.  Grill to desired temperature on a gas or coal grill.

Here are just a few suggestions for the toppings bar:
crispy bacon
ranch dressing
caramelized onions
salsa
cheddar
swiss
pickles
mustard
bbq sauce

enjoy grilling! and sliders!

Nice birthday recipe for me. Are they better than the ones we ate at the old Del Ray? Hope you are well. Give me a call this weekend? Cathy
