Carne Asada Slider Recipe
Disclosure: This Carne Asada Sliders recipe post was sponsored by KING’S HAWAIIAN® but the opinions are all my own.
This Carne Asada Slider recipe is perfect for your home tailgating game day party.
What is the one food that shows up at almost all game day celebration?
KING’S HAWAIIAN® buns that are stuffed full of mouth watering fillings.
Sliders are my favorite food to serve on game day.
We eat sliders all the time, not just on game day, but they make a perfect game day food.
While we cheer on our favorite team I love to have easy to serve food on hand.
I can make up a big platter of sliders and my guests can help themselves when they are ready to eat.
My favorite place to shop for game day supplies is at Walmart. I know I'll be able to save money at Walmart and I will be able to pick up all my ingredients and game day party supplies.
Walmart carries a large selection of King's Hawaiian buns and rolls.
It is the only store I have been able to find the King's Hawaiian slider buns in an 18 pack, which is the perfect size package of slider buns for a game day party.
Carne Asada Sliders are so easy to make.
It takes a little prep but is so worth it.
Thinley sliced steak is marinated in a Mexican carne asada marinade then grilled over high heat.
Carne Asada literally means grilled meat.
The day before you plan to grill the meat make the carne asada marinade and marinate the meat overnight.
If you need to you can cut the marinating time down to a few hours but when you marinade the meat overnight it really soaks up the flavors of the marinade and helps tenderize the beef.
Carne Asada Sliders are perfect any time of the year but make a great game day sandwich!
How to throw a Game Day Home Tailgating Party
The trick to pulling off an awesome Game Day extravaganza is in the planning.
Planning and prepping your game day menu in advance lets you enjoy the game and your company without having to spend the day of your home tailgating party in the kitchen.
Head out to Walmart and pick up all the ingredients and game day party supplies in advance.
Waiting until the day of the game can really put unnecessary stress on yourself.
The idea is to enjoy yourself not drive yourself crazy rushing around because you didn't plan in advance.
Prepare any food that can be made in advance the night before like dips and a homemade Pico de Galo salsa.
Marinade the meat the night before.
Set up a table for all your food.
