PULLED BBQ CHICKEN SLIDERS WITH A SPICY MAYONNAISE DIP

 Sliders are perfect to serve as appetizers or in entrées. Their versitality of size and taste makes them immaculate to eat at any time of day, all you need to do is change the size of the buns accordingly ! 

  

Some burger purists say that a true slider is only made this way (bun, patty, onion, pickle) and that anything else is a considered mini hamburger. But of course today the term slider is used to describe lots of mini sandwiches and you can find them topped with everything from fried chicken to pork belly.(extracted from 5280burgerbar.com)
