Step-By-Step Instructions To Make The Delicious BBQ Chicken Sliders:

Step 1: Preheat the oven.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) before you begin preparing the sliders.

Step 2: Prepare the chicken and buns.

In a large bowl, combine 1.5 to 2.25 pounds of shredded chicken with 1/3 cup of BBQ sauce and a sprinkle of BBQ rub. Split the 12 slider buns in half and place the bottom halves in a greased 11×7″ or 9×13″ baking dish.

Step 3: Build the layers.

Layer the bottom buns with 6 slices of Pepper Jack cheese, shredded chicken, and shredded red onion. Place the top buns back on.

Step 4: Butter and seasoning.

Brush the tops of the buns with 1/4 cup of melted butter. Sprinkle Everything bagel seasoning on top, ensuring each bun is nicely coated.

Step 5: Bake

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the buns become crispy.

Step 6: Serve

Once the cheese melts and the buns get crispy, remove them from the oven, and enjoy your delicious sliders!

Toppings galore: Customize your sliders with toppings like pickles, coleslaw, avocado, or crispy bacon to add extra layers of flavor and texture.
