I’ve never been big into sports, but I have always been a fan of game day grub. If you manage to catch me watching a game it’s safe to say that I’ll have a cold beer in one hand and a plate of food in the other.
It’s safe to say that nothing pairs quite as perfectly on game day than buns and beer. Whether it’s a burger, pulled pork, or a slider. Honestly, I’m a fan of sliders because they’re smaller, and that means I don’t feel as guilty about eating so many. Being the fan of spicy food that I am these Buffalo Chicken Sliders will make for the perfect addiction to any game day activities that I find myself a part of.

I served these sliders with Warsteiner Premium German Pilsener, but you could go with your favorite pilsner-style beer instead.

These look sooooo good Josh!
Thanks Shaheen! Definitely delicious, and the leftovers make for the perfect topping for pizza.
These sliders look incredible! I love anything and everything having to do with buffalo chicken…and that Bleu Cheese Broccoli Slaw? Sign me up for a whole batch of that one. Thanks for sharing! #client
Thanks David! They were definitely a hit.
These look delicious! I’m gluten free, but tempted to try the bleu cheese broccoli slaw on it’s own with some shredded chicken or pork.
I think that would be a great option! I had the chicken by itself without buns for leftovers the next day, and it was just as delicious!
You just inspired my dinner!!
Bleu Cheese Broccoli Slaw??? I’ll take 50 please and thank you. Game day be damned
