I’ve only had White Castle sliders once but I can tell you that if I lived in the USA instead of Canada, I’d be eating them all the time! For those like me, who love them but can’t just go to a local drive thru to get them, here is my amazing copycat recipe that tastes just like real White Castle Sliders! Honestly, they taste so authentic you’ll be looking around for Harold and Kumar. Enjoy!
Copycat White Castle Sliders
INGREDIENTS
2 pkgs Dinner Rolls (16 rolls)
1 lb Ground Chuck
2 1/3 cup Beef Broth
1 cup Dried Minced Onions
8 American (Processed) Cheese Slices (optional)
16 Hamburger Dills
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
DIRECTIONS
Line a 10×15 pan with parchment paper.
Mix ground chuck, 2/3 cup beef broth and salt and pepper together until mixture is easily spreadable.
Gently press and spread meat mixture into prepared pan until you form a thin even layer.
Using a knife, score each into 16 equal rectangles.
Use your finger to make 5 holes in each patty.
Place in freezer for at least 1 hour.
Remove frozen patties on parchment paper.
Preheat oven to 450.
Pour remaining beef broth (1 2/3 cup) into a baking sheet and spread minced onions over entire bottom of pan.
Allow to sit for 5 – 10 minutes.
Cut all dinner rolls in half to make buns.
Place frozen beef on top of onion mixture.
Place in oven for 10 minutes to allow burgers to steam cook (until they turn brown).
Remove and place cheese on each patty (if you are making cheese sliders).
Top each with a bun top and return to oven for 3 minutes.
Top each bun bottom with a dill pickle
Use a spatula to pick up each slider half and place on bun bottom.

I'm so confused, they're was so much liquid and onions, I had to use a different tray... did I do simmering wrong, do you put the buns on top of that??

Did you use dried onions or fresh? The liquid should all get cooked off/absorbed.

Did you mean 2/3 cup beef broth with the meat (and S/P)? or did you mean 1/3 cup? Just worried about consistency if I add more beef broth....

2/3 cup beef broth with the meat is correct, but you can use your best judgment and add less. The mixture should be easy to spread but still hold together.

O...M.. G!!!! I was born & raised on Central Ohio, the birthplace of White Castles!! I left Ohio in 2010 and haven't had a "rattburger" as we Ohio folks affectionately call them, since! I'd tried the frozen variety, but it lacked something! Seeing your recipe a couple days ago, I thought, "Yeah right!" bit opted to give it a try anyway!I had to sub out ground chicken for the beef ' hubby can no longer eat beef - and it STILL CAME OUT FANTASTIC!!! My hubby and I are now sitting here in food cona's because we ate SO MUCH!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
