    Sliders With Bacon Recipe

    Don't you just love those itty bitty burgers they call sliders? Well, hang on to your seat because you haven't tasted anything until you've tasted Barbecue Bourbon Glazed Bacon Sliders!

    These mini burgers get their juiciness and lots of added flavor as the bits of chopped bacon cook* along with the burgers. Yes, the bacon is inside the burger!

    Serve these at your next party or football game day and they'll disappear before your very own eyes......which is why I highly recommend you make a double batch! Trust me, you'll thank me that you did!

    Sliders are cooked on the grill. I grill all year long but if you prefer to cook them on your stove top just follow the stove top directions in the recipe notes below!
