Chipotle Mini Sliders

Mini Sliders a popular appetizer or for some a main course meal when they are out at many pub style restaurants. I decided to give this tasty treat a try at home and found that I created a very similiar style meal just like you would enjoy at your local local pubs and the best part is you can create as many as you like in the comfort of your own kitchen. Eggs are a key ingredient to create the sliders from scratch as this is the best binding agent and helps to keep the ground beef from falling apart. I would recommend that you use a lean ground beef and for some of the more self conscious meat eaters you can even try lean ground turkey or chicken. You can pick up medium (mini) buns at your local grocers and when you are making the patty you want to  get them to around the size of the palm of your hand. The cheese used should be natural cheese slices and you would cut them into four even parts to place on the burger patty. Chipotle sauce is a must have topping.
