I created this recipe for Sweet and Smoky Juicy Lucy BBQ Sliders for the Budweiser Sauces Ultimate Blogger Recipe Challenge. I received complimentary product to do so, however the opinions are mine alone.

Sweet and Smoky Juicy Lucy BBQ Sliders can be prepared in advance then cooked when ready to serve.

I had never heard of a Juicy Lucy until talking to my best friend one day about grilling out burgers. You don’t know what they are either? Well, my BFF lives outside Minneapolis and the Juicy Lucy is Minneapolis’s claim to fame, along with the musician Prince, of course. When I started thinking about a second recipe to use the Budweiser Brewmaster’s Premium Sweet and Smoky Sauce, I couldn’t get a Juicy Lucy out of my head. When I started bouncing ideas off of my 13 year old son, we came up with this recipe.

Sweet and Smoky Juicy Lucy BBQ Sliders are perfect for lunch, dinner or game day.

This was my first attempt at a Juicy Lucy. I wanted a cheese that I knew would melt well. I picked a Vermont white Cheddar. Provolone cubes would be another good choice because it also melts well. These delicious sliders make the perfect game day snack, movie night food, easy lunch or dinner. If you have teenage boys and their friends like to hang out at your house, double or even triple, the recipe. You know how hungry teenagers can be!

  1. We love sliders in our family as well. I’ve never tried them with cheese inside, what a great idea. I have sliders on the menu for this week, I’ll have to try this trick. These look delicious!

  2. When I saw this post, I immediately decided to try these for dinner that night. These sliders did not disappoint! My family of 4 all loved these. The sweet flavor of the Budweiser BBQ sauce and the gooey cheese in every bite, was an instant hit with my crew. This was an easy recipe, that seemed to appeal to each of us. As a mom of a busy family, any recipe that my entire family can enjoy is a BIG win! Thanks for sharing!

  3. This is a delicious recipe! I made them myself and they were wonderful especially with the right BBQ sauce. The caramelized onions were delicious and although the lettuce was good, I would consider adding pickles to it for a little bit of tang. This recipe is one to remember and I will continue to mix and match ingredients in the future.
