Hey guys! Since these aren’t my style (I don’t eat beef), I’m going to let my husband tell you how amazing this little guys were. Take it away, honey! 😉

It’s this simple: I grew up eating beef, until I met Caroline. Now, I love you, babe, but I’ve had to make a significant sacrifice to my meat-loving lifestyle. Beef is almost non-existent in our home and rare to enter my mouth. I can’t fully complain; Caroline does a wonderful job by providing plenty of protein-rich meals with the occasional beef substitute, turkey. Anyways, back to the sliders. Caroline surprised me one day with procuring a pound of organic beef. Heaven? Yes!

One step ahead of me, she also bought whole-wheat buns. Done and done! Hamburgers on the horizon for Logan. And just as I love whipped cream on any dessert, I’ll take a generous serving of barbeque sauce with most savory dishes. I’m currently loving Earthfare’s Backyard BBQ Sauce. With all the meat for me, I think I had three consecutive hamburger meals and I wasn’t complaining.

For any beef-lovers out there, take my word about the deliciousness of these sliders. Simple steak seasoning, cheddar cheese and a flowing river of BBQ sauce were the necessary accoutrements for this delectable hamburger dinner. The only missing player was bacon, of course.

Thanks for the special surprise, honey!
