I love a good meatball, I love BBQ sauce, & I crazy love coleslaw! Putting the three on a bun & making a sandwich is superb! I decided to make my own everything slider buns for this post, but you can use Hawaiian Rolls if you want.

 Doesn’t this recipe just make you crave Summer? Get to cooking it & let me know what you think!

BBQ Meatball Sliders

Created by Amber Brady
Yields12 sliders

Ingredients

For the Meatballs:

  • 1 lb ground beef, (I like 85/15)
  • ½ cup onion, minced
  • ½ cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 Tbsp skim milk
  • ¾ cup Favorite BBQ Sauce

For the Coleslaw:

  • 3 cups shredded cabbage mix
  • 4 scallions, sliced
  • 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ⅛ tsp celery seed
  • ½ Tbsp granulated sugar
  • ¼ tsp each Salt & Pepper

Additional Ingredients:

  • Cooking Spray
  • 12 dinner rolls or slider buns

Instructions
 

  • FOR THE COLESLAW (Prepare first): Toss the cabbage and scallions with the mayonnaise, cider vinegar, celery seed & sugar; season with salt and pepper. Allow to macerate & break down in the fridge while you make the meatballs.
  • FOR THE MEATBALLS: Combine all ingredients, except the BBQ sauce in a large bowl. Line a baking sheet with foil & spray with cooking spray. Form meatballs (about 2 Tbsp each) & place onto prepared baking sheet (makes about 12-14 meatballs.) Bake at 400˚F for 15-16 minutes, or until no longer pink. Heat BBQ sauce in a large saucepan, add baked meatballs & gently fold/toss in the sauce. Remove from heat when it boils/sizzles.
  • TO ASSEMBLE: Place a saucy meatball on the slider bun and top with fresh coleslaw.
