Ingredients
Ground Beef
1 lb (Fresh, unseasoned)
Breadcrumbs
1/3 cup (Plain or seasoned)
Water
3 tablespoons (Room temperature)
Fresh Ground Pepper
1/4 teaspoon (For seasoning)
Egg
1 (Beaten)
Lipton Onion Soup Mix
1 (1 ounce) envelope (Dry mix)
Pepperidge Farm Party Rolls
1 (24 count) package (Ready to use)
Hamburger Dill Pickles

Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, water, fresh ground pepper, beaten egg, and the Lipton Onion Soup Mix. Mix until well combined, but be careful not to overwork the meat.
3
Place the meat mixture between two sheets of waxed paper and roll it out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch, forming a rectangle approximately 10 by 6 inches.
4
Carefully transfer the rolled-out meat onto a greased cookie sheet, removing the waxed paper from both sides. Using your finger or the handle of a spoon, poke several holes in the meat to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
5
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through. Once done, remove from the oven and pour off any accumulated fat.
6
Cut the cooked meat into 20 smaller squares that will fit into the party rolls.
7
Assemble the sliders by placing a square of the meat into each party roll and adding a slice of dill pickle as a topping, if desired.
8
Serve the sliders hot and enjoy the delicious flavors!
