For an extra smoky flavor, try using smoked bacon. If you don't have Gorgonzola, blue cheese or feta works well. The chipotle mayo can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground chuck with plant-based burger patties or grilled portobello mushrooms.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously spray two 6-cup cast iron muffin pans with cooking spray. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk together cornbread mix, flour, milk, sour cream, and egg until just combined. Gently fold in chives, crumbled bacon, and Gorgonzola cheese. (5 minutes)
03
StepFill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with the batter. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cornbread muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool slightly. (15 minutes)
04
StepWhile the cornbread bakes, melt butter in a large cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside. (10 minutes)
05
StepIn a large bowl, combine ground chuck, egg, bread crumbs, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and form into thin patties. (5 minutes)
06
StepHeat the skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of Cheddar cheese and allow it to melt. (10 minutes)
07
StepIn a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, chipotle pepper (finely minced), and adobo sauce until well combined. (2 minutes)
08
StepTo assemble the sliders, slice each cornbread muffin horizontally to create top and bottom buns. Spread a thin layer of chipotle mayo on both the top and bottom halves. Place a cheeseburger patty on the bottom bun, top with caramelized onions, and finish with the top bun. Serve immediately and enjoy! (5 minutes)

Jun 25, 2025I found the cornbread a little too crumbly. Maybe adding an extra egg would help?
