"Why settle for one large burger when you can have three little ones? White Castle's founders were way ahead of the curve when they introduced sliders back in the early 1900s. This scaled-down format leaves room for mixing and matching, so you can sample a wider variety without committing to a full-fledged meal. It makes you want to build your slider flight to get in on multiple flavors at once, and that's exactly what I did - not at a restaurant"
"I rounded up seven different renditions, including burger, cheesesteak, and chicken sliders, to rank in a little taste test (emphasis on "little"). Considering most boxes only offered one cooking method (aka microwave zapping), that's what I went with across the board. Then I ranked primarily based on a balanced bun-to-filling ratio, tender and quality meat, and a bun that could survive a turn in the microwave without transforming into a chewy hockey puck."
Seven frozen slider varieties from brands including TGI Friday's, Tyson, and White Castle were evaluated using microwave cooking. Samples included burger, cheesesteak, and chicken sliders. Judging criteria emphasized balanced bun-to-filling ratio, tender quality meat, and buns that could withstand microwaving without becoming chewy. The small slider format allows mixing and matching multiple flavors in one meal. Many frozen options struggled to meet the criteria, with several buns and fillings deteriorating during microwave preparation and a few renditions performing notably worse than others.
