I'm looking for some slider-esque hamburger buns. Anyone know of a store in the Slope that sells them? I'd prefer around GAP, but I'm willing to travel.

Thanks,

    I made these the other day. I used the tiny rolls in the bread section, 24 to a pack. I bought tiny pickles, cherry tomatoes I sliced in half and used american cheese cut out with a small juice glass.

    they have super yummy ones we use for our homemade sliders at Union Market in the fresh breads section. I am partial to the ones with assagio cheese - cheeseburger with a cheesy bun.... it's outstanding!

    :) It's cute and fun and great for parties. Obviously being so small they cook quickly.

  • brooklynpotter

    yea the other is in Jersey City. though that one is White Mana, only one "n". at one point had the same owners i think. i've never been to the JC one but i feel my only reason would be to say i have tried and to say "yea the Hackensack one is better..."

    White Manna (or as my friends as I lovingly call it "White Mamma's", something my parents coincidently called it as well when they were kids) in Hackensack is definitely still there and I think I need to pay a fare visit when i visit the folks next week for the holidays.

    8 no onions, fries, and a medium coke please. wow, i can't stop thinking bout it now. look at this goddamn jersey gem:

    I moved here circa 1990.
    At the time i was amazed at how much the neighborhood
    reminded me of bogota, and bergen county in general.

    back to the mini burgers ...
    Dinner rolls will do just fine.
    Suggest you dice an onion in a food processor.
    Use a teaspoon to grab a consistent amount of meat.
    Fry the onions and pickles on the same grill as the burgers.
    (the juices need to mix properly !!)
    Fold Kraft (whatever) cheese slices into quarters.
    Upon the lone flip of the burger,
    place the cooked onions and pickle on.
    Then , place cheese over the onion and pickle
    followed by a squirt of ketchup ... and you MUST
    place the top part of the roll on the STILL cooking burger.

    considering these are 1 or 2 bite jobs
    i insist on HOT onions pickes and ketchup.
    squirt cold ketchup on there and the whole burger is cold in 3 seconds.
    :wink:

    i used to get 50 cents each for em.(25 years ago)

    I make awesome BBQ ribs too :wink:
