Plymouth's Best Sliders

Everybody loves a burger, but they sure can be awkward to eat. Some are such heavyweights they require serious strategic thinking before you can even attempt a first bite. Enter the slider. Sort of like the baby sister to the classic, colossal burger, these dainty, manageable minis are easy to consume. You can hold them in one hand. The filling doesn’t slide out the other side as you eat them. And these burgers in miniature have become all the rage on bar menus throughout Plymouth.

Cajun Gator Sliders

Joe Senser’s

In the “sports theater” environment for which Joe Senser’s is known, sliders serve as the perfect snack food for sitting in the bar and catching a game. The menu also offers an alligator burger, but manager Deann Wies says the Cajun gator sliders ($10.95) are popular for people who are a little gun-shy about trying alligator. With three miniature sandwiches in an order, the meat is ground and seasoned with Cajun spices, then grilled and topped with pepper jack cheese, pico de gallo and a creamy gator sauce, served on a mini-bun with natural cut fries. You’ll also find mini Buffalo chicken sandwiches on the chalkboard menu in the bar ($5). 

Meatloaf Sliders

Cowboy Jack’s

From the popular slider menu at Cowboy Jack’s, the meatloaf sliders sell the most, says Jesi Mosny, director of marketing. Four sliders come in an order, topped with a house-made cowboy ketchup and seasoned tobacco onion strings. The sloppy sliders are a miniature version of a sloppy Joe, with a rich flavor and a bit of a spicy touch, while the braised BBQ chicken sliders are made with tender braised chicken and Cowboy Jack’s barbecue sauce. The regular price for all of the sliders is $9, but they sell for $4.50 during happy hour, which is daily from 3 to 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. to midnight. 

Mini Burgers

Woody’s Grille

The mini burgers at Woody’s Grille are just that, a classic cheeseburger done diminutively. They are topped with cheddar cheese, chipotle mayonnaise, onion straws and a pickle, and served on silver dollar buns. Three of the minis sell for $7 at happy hour, weekdays from 3 to 6 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The mini burgers on the dinner menu ($9.50) come four to an order, with the choice of homemade chips, fresh fruit or coleslaw (fresh-cut fries or sweet fries cost just a bit more). Executive chef Mark Stankey says they are about as generous in portion size as ordering a whole burger, but the ease of sharing makes them a hit.
