*BBQ Beef Sliders with Caramelized Onions* Makes 12 These are simple to make and oh so delicious. A real family and crowd pleaser. 1 TBS flavourless oil 2 large onions, peeled and thinly sliced 130g BBQ sauce (1/2 cup) 73g mayonnaise (1/3 cup) 1 TBS creamed horseradish sauce 1 package of soft dinner rolls (12 count) 12 slices deli roast beef 120g grated 4 cheese blend (1 cup) 2 TBS butter, melted 1/2 TBS Worcestershire sauce 1/4 tsp each garlic and onion powders 1 tsp dried parsley To caramelize the onions, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium/high heat. Add the onions, reduce to medium low and cook, stirring frequently until golden. Preheat oven to 190*C/375*F/ gas mark 5. Have ready a 13 by 9 inch baking dish with sides. Lightly butter. Set aside. Whisk together the mayonnaise and horseradish sauce. Slice the buns in half through the middle, keeping both halves in one sheet. Place the bun bottom sheet into the prepared baking dish. Cover with the caramelized onions. Divide the BBQ sauce amongst each bun section, smoothing it over with the bottom of a spoon. Top with the sliced roast beef and sprinkle the cheese over top of the beef. Spread the mayo/horseradish sauce on the inside of the top bun halves and place over all, sauce side down. Whisk together the butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic and onion powders and dried parsley. Brush over the tops of the buns. Cover loosely with aluminium foil. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until heated through, the cheese has melted and the tops are golden brown, uncovering for the last 5 minutes of bake time. Cut into individual sliders and serve with your favourite accompaniments. |
