How many of you are steak lovers? My family loves steak. Any time we have a cookout, my husband makes sure that he adds a couple of steaks to the grill. We usually pair our steaks with potatoes and veggies, but this time around I wanted to do something a little different, so I made Grilled Steak Sliders with Onions & Blue Cheese.
Anytime we grill, I like to head over to Sprouts Farmers Market. The butcher helped us pick out a couple pounds of all-natural USDA choice beef skirt steak, and we also grabbed some blue cheese, herbs and veggies. I chose skirt steak because they cook up perfectly and are easy to slice.

While the grill is heating up, I like to season my steak with a little Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper. I also like to slice my onions and prepare them to be placed on the grill.
It’s so much fun to come up with all sorts of slider toppings, but, somehow, we always end up adding blue cheese and onions to our sliders. These Grilled Steak Sliders with Onions & Blue Cheese were such a big hit. I think that these tiny sandwiches will definitely be added to our summer grilling menu.
