"We're getting close to the Super Bowl, and it's not about who wins the trophy, but rather who wins the snack table. If American Foods
you show up with these super fun sliders, that will be you. The real secret to these beauties is placing the meatball in Group 80% Lean
through the top of the roll, versus splitting and stu ing in the traditional manner. Maybe it's the symmetry, or center of

gravity, that makes these just feel right in your hand. If you're short on time, using pre-made meatballs will do."

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided 2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 yellow onion, diced freshly ground black pepper to taste
5 cloves garlic, minced, divided 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pound ground beef 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley, plus more for 18 dinner rolls
garnish 2 cups spicy tomato sauce
1 large egg 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1/4 cup plain bread crumbs
1 cup shredded fontina cheese, divided

Directions
1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2 Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and 2 cloves garlic; cook and stir until
onion is so , about 5 minutes.
3 Place beef in a large bowl. Add onion-garlic mixture, parsley, egg, bread crumbs, and 1 large handful of fontina
cheese, reserving the rest for topping. Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Mix by hand until just combined.
Scoop meat mixture into 24 mini mu in cups; meatballs need not be perfectly round.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, about 12 minutes. Leave oven on. Let meatballs
cool briefly while you make the garlic butter.
5 Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add remaining minced garlic once butter starts to bubble; stir, then
immediately remove from heat. Stir well and set aside.
6 Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil; coat foil with remaining olive oil. Transfer rolls, still attached, to the baking
sheet. Cut a hole in the top of each roll, about 2/3 of the way down. Brush garlic butter over the insides and
outsides of the rolls.
7 Bake until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Pour about 1 tablespoon tomato sauce into each hole. Stu meatballs
into the holes. Top each roll with a spoonful of tomato sauce and remaining fontina cheese. Sprinkle Parmesan
cheese on top.
8 Continue baking until cheese is melted, 12 to 15 minutes. Garnish with more parsley. Let rolls sit for 5 to 10
minutes to firm up; transfer to a serving platter.
