What Makes This Dish So Tasty
Pro Kitchen Tips
- Make a small test meatball first to check seasoning before shaping the rest.
- Cook the meatballs evenly by turning them gently in the pan or oven.
Step 1
Mix the ground meats with the egg, Romano cheese, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the breadcrumbs, then slowly add water a little at a time until the mixture feels moist but still holds together. Shape the mixture into patties, about 2 ounces each, and pop them in the fridge to chill while you get everything else ready.
Step 2
Heat up your grill or a grill pan over medium heat and lightly oil it. Cook the patties thoroughly on both sides. When they’re almost done, place half a slice of cheese on each patty and let it melt for about a minute. While the cheese is melting, toast the slider buns cut side down on the grill until they’re nice and crisp.
Step 3
To assemble, pile each cheeseburger with a couple of tablespoons of grilled onions and sun-dried tomatoes. Serve them up warm and enjoy!
