Living in sunny Florida, Fall is more of a date on the calendar than a change in the weather but it’s also the start of football season and that is reason enough to celebrate! These Burger Sliders For Game Day are simple and delicious, a crowd pleasing meal for tailgating or homegating.

Burger Sliders

We love college football in our family and it’s fun to create special snacks and meals to nosh on while we cheer our team to victory each Saturday! Easy recipes that get me out of the kitchen before the first play are the best and these yummy burger sliders are filling and tasty!

Burger Sliders

Creating sliders satisfies your craving for burgers and eliminates the need for you to run back and forth to the grill and miss a play during the big game! We’ve played with this recipe over the years and finally perfected for ultimate flavor and listed it near the bottom of our post so you can print a copy for yourself! I know, pictures of ground beef with minced onions aren’t a thing of beauty but when these burger sliders hit your tastebuds, you’ll be glad you made them!

Burger Sliders

After the meat is cooked, cut your burger sliders to fit your rolls, top with a variety of cheeses and set your family loose with the toppings bar!

Burger Sliders

One of our favorite traditions is creating a burger bar with our sliders because it’s a fun way to experiment with new tastes and flavors! Our choices were: The Italian- pepperoni, mozzerella cheese, & marinara; The Traditional- lettuce, tomato, & American cheese; The Smokehouse- sharp cheddar, fried onions, and BBQ sauce; and The Mexican- pepperjack cheese, salsa, & jalapenos. Of course, everyone can create new combinations and you’ll never have the same burger sliders twice!

Burger Sliders

With 4 kiddos, I can pretty much guarantee a mess is going to happen at some point during a meal and sure enough, one did! My hubs was actually the messmaker on this occassion; he was assembling a Smokehouse burger and looked up to catch a play and, whoooooops, BBQ sauce was all over the table. Luckily, I had a roll of Viva® Vantage® Towels nearby so clean up was a breeze! This paper towels are stretchy and don’t break easily so they’re perfect for cleaning up sticky messes like BBQ sauce and the ketchup that also made an appearance all over the floor in the 3rd quarter! I also love the convenient sizing of these towels because they’re great for cleaning up, the thickness provides strength, and I’m not wasting extra product because these Viva® Vantage® Towels are stretchy and tough enough to make the messes disappear!

Burger Sliders

I’m glad I picked up some of the Viva® Vantage® Towels on my last trip to WalMart! And now, you can save $1 on any Viva® Paper Towel or Viva® Vantage® Paper Towel 12-pack or larger! Be sure to print your coupon and grab these tough towels and keep cleaning a breeze while you’re cheering your team to victory!

Ingredients
  • Use these ingredients per 1 lb of ground beef:
  • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F
  2. Combine ground beef and all ingredients except minced onions in a large bowl, mix well.
  3. Spread beef mixture onto a cookie sheet with sides(otherwise the grease from the beef cooking will run off into the stove and cause a potential hazard and HUGE mess), pat down until evenly distributed on baking sheet.
  4. Sprinkle minced onions over the surface of the beef until evenly coated.
  5. Cook for 15-18 mins or until juices run clear & meat is cooked through. Blot away extra grease with paper towels.
  6. Cut into squares to fit the rolls, top with favorite condiments.

    These sliders look delicious. Also, we ONLY use Viva Vantage at our house – my husband insists that they are the best paper towels available and the one time I brought a different brand home he through them in the garbage!

Ever wonder what to say when your child is feeling Ever wonder what to say when your child is feeling left out?  A few years ago, I watched from my park bench as a young mother tried to console her sobbing daughter. “I’m sorry, honey. I don’t blame you for being upset.”  “I don’t know why they won’t let me be in their group for the talent show. They just said they already had enough people and their routine was done and there wasn’t anything they could do about it. I told them I would make a new one up, but they wouldn’t do it.”  I tried to focus on my kindle while occasionally looking for my kids to exit the school door. But as much as I tried not to eavesdrop, I had to admit I was interested to hear how the mom would handle this all-too-common situation of a child feeling left out.  “Well, they’re probably just jealous of you honey, because you are such a good gymnast and they aren’t. They probably don’t want you in their group because you’ll show them up,” the mom stated matter-of-factly. “You should do a solo routine. Or maybe one with Chloe.”  “You think?” the girl replied, her tears slowing down. “You think they’re just jealous of my tumbling?”  “Totally.”  Several minutes passed before my girls came out, but the interaction between the mother and daughter stuck with me for a lot longer.  Maybe the girls were jealous, or maybe they honestly had their routine finished.  To continue reading check the link in bio.
