Air Fryer Frozen White Castle Sliders Guide (Crispy Buns, Juicy Beef)

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 2 minutes. Line the bottom of the air fryer basket with a small piece of aluminum foil folded with edges raised slightly.

Remove the frozen sliders from packaging. Separate the top bun from the meat patty. Set the 4 top buns aside at room temperature for later. Keep the bottom buns attached under each beef patty.

Place the patties (with bottom buns underneath) on the foil in the air fryer basket. Drizzle 2 teaspoons of water directly onto the foil around the sliders. Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. The water turns into steam, heating the beef and re-hydrating the onions.

Open the basket and place the top buns back onto the hot beef/cheese patties. Close the air fryer and cook at 350°F for an additional 60 to 90 seconds until the buns are warm, soft, and lightly toasted on the crown.

Use tongs to lift the sliders out. Tuck one cold dill pickle chip under each top bun and serve hot with Düsseldorf mustard or BBQ dipping sauces in under 10 minutes!
