Cook techniques

Cooking Sausage Patties

Shape the ground pork sausage into equal-sized patties and cook over medium heat until they’re fully done. This ensures even cooking and maximizes flavor.

Layering for Flavor

When assembling the sliders, layer the scrambled eggs, cheese, and sausage strategically. This allows the flavors to meld together as they bake, creating a harmonious bite.

Making the Glaze

Combine melted butter and maple syrup to create a sweet glaze. Brushing this mixture over the buns adds flavor and a beautiful finish.

Baking Technique

Bake the assembled sliders until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This not only helps to hold the layers together but also enhances the overall texture.
