We’re talking awesome PORK SLIDERS that have been hand-formed with a mixture of ground pork (total fave) and awesome seasonings, and because, hey, we’re total chiliheads here, right? - I’m including a very spicy ghost pepper into the mix as well as my own homemade Ancho-Guajillo chili paste recipe that makes these sliders SERIOUSLY ROCK! These are great as a backyard BBQ party appetizer or serve up a few as the main course. Either way, you’ll get the party seriously started with these. Let’s talk about how we make them, shall we? Form the meat into 6 2-ounce patties. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. This will help them keep their form when they’re cooking up. You can skip this step if you use more breadcrumbs. When you’re ready to cook, heat a grill pan to medium heat and coat the pan with olive oil. Cook the sliders about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Learn more about How to Pickle Chili Peppers Here. BOOM! DONE! Super easy, right? Add the sliders to your slider buns, top with the Guajillo Mayo and lightly pickled peppers. Enjoy the heck out of these, my friends!
Adjusting the Heat Factor
As mentioned, these are VERY fiery with the inclusion of the ghost peppers, but if you’d prefer a milder version, skip the ghost pepper or replace it with something milder to your preference. A habanero pepper will still give you plenty of heat, or go with a similar amount of diced sweet pepper. You’ll get some decent heat along from the guajillo peppers, so plan accordingly.
