Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 mini hot dog buns (slider size)
  • 12 high-quality beef or chicken hot dogs, split lengthwise
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for toasting buns)
  • Shredded cheddar cheese
  • Sweet pickle relish
  • Diced white onions
  • Jalapeño slices (optional)
  • Coleslaw
  • Yellow mustard
  • Ketchup
  • Mayonnaise or garlic aioli
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Bacon bits (optional)
  • Secret Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon pickle juice
  • Pinch of smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Prep the toppings and sauce: finely chop onions, slice jalapeños, shred cheese. Whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, pickle juice, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Chill in fridge.
  2. Toast the buns: heat skillet over medium heat. Brush cut sides of buns with olive oil. Place cut-side down in pan and toast 2-3 minutes until golden and crisp. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
  3. Cook the hot dogs: add split hot dogs to skillet or grill pan. Cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until browned and heated through, about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Assemble the sliders: place each hot dog in a toasted bun. Drizzle secret sauce, then add cheese, relish, onions, jalapeños, and other desired toppings.
  5. Serve warm immediately. Optionally, melt cheese under broiler for 1-2 minutes before serving.

Notes

Toast buns carefully to avoid burning; split hot dogs lengthwise for better caramelization; prep toppings while cooking to save time; assemble sliders just before serving to prevent sogginess; melt cheese under broiler for 1-2 minutes if desired.
