PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the bacon in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium, cooking until the fat renders and the strips are perfectly crispy.

• 2

  Divide the ground beef into two equal portions and form into small patties, seasoning both sides with sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  Remove the bacon from the skillet and wipe out the excess grease, leaving just a thin coating or adding the avocado oil if needed.

• 4

  Sear the beef patties over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and they reach your desired doneness.

• 5

  During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with the sharp cheddar cheese and cover the pan briefly to melt.

• 6

  Lightly toast the slider buns in the same pan until warm and slightly golden.

• 7

  Assemble the sliders by layering the lettuce, tomato, cheesy beef patties, and crispy bacon between the toasted buns.
