These black bean sliders are designed to be a fun dish that could be shared at a party as a heavy appetizer and are a perfect accompaniment to fries and a cold beer. Set them next to the plate of hot wings so that no one’s carnivore-nature feels threatened.

Black Bean Sliders

If you want to make a Southern carnivore squirm, give them a veggie burger. The veggie burger came to fame in the late 60’s (made popular by the late John Lennon), but bean patties have been around for generations in other cultures (Falafel, anyone?). Nothing relays the stereotype of the crunchy, hippie lifestyle like a sandwich with no meat in it, and it makes some people very uncomfortable. I can’t figure why exactly. To me, there is nothing wrong with not having meat with every meal. Quite frankly, it’s a heck of a lot cheaper to put down the beef and pick up a can of beans every now and then.

I should state at this point that my carnivorism is well documented. I am a lover of a perfectly roasted chicken, an expertly grilled steak, and a beautifully smoked pork butt, but a perfectly seasoned black bean patty can be a thing of perfection. It’s like eating that seven-layer bean dip in sandwich form. It’s savory and satisfying with all of those Latin flavors that my whole family craves. Black beans and cumin? Maybe one of the world’s best flavor combos.

How to Make Black Bean Sliders

Black bean sliders come together really fast, but giving them at leas a little bit of time in the fridge will help them to hold together while cooking. Flipping the burgers is the hard part. I like to use the two-fork method, which is basically using the forks like your fingers so that you’ve got support on both sides when you flip. This way you reduce your chances of a patty breaking up on you.
