Why You’ll Love These Sliders

My family devoured a full tray in minutes—and that’s always the best sign. This recipe is fun, simple, and full of flavor.

The TABASCO® Honey BBQ Sauce adds a tangy, smoky sweetness that soaks into the bread just enough to create that finger-licking good experience.

You can even make them your own by adding:

• Sliced red onions
• Pickles or jalapeños for heat
• A sprinkle of cheddar or mozzarella

Tips for Perfect BBQ Chicken Sliders:

• Use rotisserie chicken for a shortcut—easy and juicy!
• Lightly toast the bottom of your rolls before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
• Brush the tops with melted butter mixed with garlic powder and dried herbs for that golden finish.
