Ingredients

Beef Filling

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • ½ yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hamburger seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Garlic Butter

  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Assembly

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil. Once hot and shimmering, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
  • Add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it apart with a wooden spoon and cook until no pink remains, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  • Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, hamburger seasoning, seasoned salt, kosher salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt. Set aside.
  • Without separating the rolls, slice them horizontally through the middle. Place the bottom half into the prepared baking dish.
  • Lay 6 slices of cheddar cheese evenly over the bottom buns.
  • Spread the cooked beef mixture evenly over the cheese layer, gently pressing it into an even layer.
  • Lay the remaining 6 slices of cheddar cheese over the beef.
  • Spoon the prepared bacon jam evenly over the top cheese layer, spreading it gently so it reaches the edges.
  • Place the top half of the rolls over the bacon jam layer.
  • Brush the tops of the rolls generously with the garlic butter mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using.
  • Cover loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and heated through.
  • Remove the foil and bake an additional 5 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm.
