Instructions

For the Carolina Slaw

1. Assemble the vegetables on a cutting board or in a large bowl. Working in batches, transfer a few cups of the vegetable combination to a food processor at a time and pulse 3-4 times to a rice-like consistency. You want the slaw to be fine enough to hold together on a slider bun, but be careful not to over-process. Transfer all the processed vegetables to a large bowl.
2. In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together the remaining ingredients and pour over the processed vegetables.
3. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. The slaw can be made a day ahead.

For the Tarheel Sliders

1. Prepare a sheet pan lined with parchment or waxed paper.
2. Put the ground beef in a large bowl and sprinkle the Tarheel BBQ Rub over the top. Gently knead the spice into the meat and divide into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten into a 4" patty. Line up the prepared patties on the sheet pan.
3. Preheat your grill to high heat.
4. Grill the patties about 6 minutes total, flipping once or twice during the cooking time.
5. Serve immediately on slider buns with Carolina slaw, ketchup and a pickle.
