31 Things To Put Between Slider Buns

October 20, 2022 By Hadley Maxwell Leave a Comment

Get your mind out of the gutter, will you? We’re talking sliders here.

31 Sliders To Make For Labor Day

It’s almost Labor Day, folks, and we’re celebrating all of your hard work with these delicious slider recipes!

Labor Day is all about celebrating the working people in the world – teachers, bankers, custodial staff, software developers, scientists, artists, writers, everyone who works a day job or, if you’re lucky, your dream job.

To make things a little more fun, we’re matching delicious slider recipes to popular careers, underrated ones, and ones that require hard work and long hours. Bet we can guess what you do based on what you like to eat!

(Or maybe not. But it’s still fun to try!)

These are 31 things to put in between slider buns, serve on a platter and enjoy with your friends and family in the sunny outdoors!

1.  for the Software Developer

Pork Chorizo Sliders With Eggless Chipotle Mayo

I’d like to think I know your taste because I lived in San Francisco – land of software developers and gourmet food. These pork chorizo sliders are gourmet, yet simple enough to be enjoyed by everyone. If you’re looking for a good slider recipe, you’ve found it in this juicy chorizo patty, fresh avocado and pretzel bun slider.

2. for the Architect

Fried Shrimp Biscuit Sliders

You like building things – obviously – so when you see something that is just as beautifully crafted as a skyscraper or vacation home, you definitely appreciate the artistry behind it. These sliders capture the art of food perfectly by building a delicious slider with a perfectly breaded shrimp on top of a delicate little biscuit.

3. for the Food Critic

You’re adventurous, know your way around good food and can spot the next big food trend in one bite. This BBQ eggplant slider is all that and more – it’s daring (I mean, BBQ’d eggplant? C’mon), it’s tasty, it’s vegan, and we can guarantee it will be the next big thing in food.

4. for the Construction Worker

Just because you’re a big dude doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy small things. Thankfully, these sliders are bursting with BIG flavor and hearty ingredients. The beef sirloin in this recipe is cooked to perfection, the mushrooms add another layer of indulgent meatiness and the bearnaise sauce is perfect for bringing all of those flavors together and accentuating them with a slight tanginess that will make your taste buds work harder than you. (Just kidding – we know that’s not possible.)

5. for the Mathematician

Jerk Chicken Sliders With Grilled Pineapple Relish

image via Chef De Home

Mathematicians get a bad rap. People usually think they’re either boring, too smart to be socially adept, or…boring. But little do people know that being a mathematician is one of the most exciting jobs in the world! You’re solving problems, looking at formulas, and are well-versed in the universal language that is math! Because mathematicians are exciting human beings, I figured they’d like a slider recipe as equally exciting. Like this jerk chicken slider with grilled pineapple relish.

6. for the Nutritionist

Salmon Sliders With Garlic Slaw

image via Good Habits & Guilty Pleasures

C’mon – you’re a nutritionist so you’re top priority is being healthy! This slider recipe is about as healthy as it gets without being tasteless. Salmon is a rich source of omega-3s, garlic is great at cleaning out the digestive system and preventing cancer and gluten-free buns because…well, why not?

7. for the Athlete

Cheddar & Bacon Stuffed Sliders

image via Kelly & Cricket

Being an athlete is difficult, but if you take away all the hubbub that surrounds it, these guys are getting paid to play games we used to play in elementary and middle school and that’s awesome! But even if they’re playing games, being an athlete is one of the most physically-intensive jobs there is. That’s why these bacon and cheddar stuffed sliders are for the athletes who are burning calories faster than we can eat them! (And that’s saying a lot.)

8. for the Urban Gardener

Mushroom & Lentil Sliders With Hummus

Yup, urban gardening is one of our dream jobs but that has nothing to do with this slider now, does it? This slider recipe is made with the freshest of wholesome ingredients and will leave you glowing from the inside out. For someone who works around vibrant, organic produce all day, this recipe is right up their alley.

9. for the Firefighters

You might not know when you’ll be called to action, but you do know that meatballs are always delicious regardless of whether they’re in between slider buns or topped on spaghetti. This is for the hard-working firefighters who deserve something as ridiculously delicious and messy as this recipe.

10. for the Food Truck Restauranteur

|

image via Brazilian Flair In The USA

The best part about the food truck craze, aside from seeing regular folks share their love of cooking, has been the utterly whacky concoctions that are created. This chicken and waffle slider recipe is just as whacky as the stuff we’ve seen served at food trucks (bourbon pecan pie, sisig nachos, it never ends!), so this is for you food truck restauranteurs! You pioneers of the future!

11. for the Painter

You found inspiration in everything life has to offer and that includes food. So, with that said, what better recipe to feel inspired by than with this cuban slider that’s topped with creamy, tangy cilantro mayo? Go ahead – feel free to paint it.

12. for the Nurses

Work hard, play hard – that should be the official motto for nurses. You guys work long, crazy hours, are always on your feet and do things other people don’t have the guts to do. This slider recipe also works hard and, because of its crazy fusion of flavors, knows how to play hard too.

13. for the Customer Service Reps

Fried Chicken Sliders

Every day for a customer service rep is a hard day. You’re dealing with irate people who, more often than not, do not display very courteous manners (and that’s putting it nicely). But don’t worry, guys, because this fried chicken slider is here to give you a big hug after a long day. These sliders are made of garlicky mashed potatoes, pepper gravy and crispy, yet tender fried chicken.

14. for the Animal Rights Activist

You don’t partake in the consumption of animal products and we respect that. With beet patties as delicious as these, why would you need to? This burger is made with fresh ingredients and made for the animal rights activist who strive to make this world a better place for animals every day.

15. for the Teacher

Prawn Sliders With Lemon Fennel Slaw

image via Spicy Ice Cream

Planning out an entire city isn’t easy. Which is also very much the case when creating new recipes – constructing flavors, bringing them together and layering them in a way that’s harmonious is downright difficult! That’s why this recipe that features bold flavors like spiced prawn, lemon and fennel deserves some kind of shout out. As unique as the flavor profile might seem, much like a well-planned layout, everything works together perfectly.

22. for the Personal Trainer

While being a curator has more to do with history than food, couldn’t one say that food is a part of history? You curate important artifacts, artwork, and documents and in a way, this recipe does the same by curating wonderful flavors that go together, and define and celebrate the flavors that make up a specific culture’s cuisine.

If you’re a writer, the “starving artist” life is all too real.

Spicy Peanut Butter Bacon Sliders

Being a florist is SO much harder than it looks. You’re not only arranging flowers, you’re keeping an eye out for composition, colors, even floral types! That’s why we had to dedicate this burger to you. At first glance, jalapenos, BBQ sauce, peanut butter and bacon SEEM like a strange combo, but you’ll understand after one bite.

31. for the Cashier

Next time you’re at the counter, be nice, will you.

It’s not everyday you get to watch Gordon Ramsay cook. Enjoy!
