11 Ways to Make a Better Burger

Purists will tell you these diminutive burgers are only sliders when they're steamed and covered in thinly sliced onions. Whatever you call them, though, mini burgers are a fun party food and the ideal addition to a buffet that already includes other mains such as grilled chicken or pizza. If you can't find buns that fit your burgers, cut standard hamburger rolls using a 3-inch round cookie cutter (you'll get two or three minis, depending on the size of the larger bun), or buy Hawaiian sweet rolls, which are just the right size.
