I was thinking about a heavy appetizer for a small church group and ventured into searching for some ideas. Found these sliders, did some swaps... Bing Bang Boom - Yum.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These aren't your typical sliders. They're hearty and meant for a meat lover. Nothing skimpy about them, they bake into big, thick cheesy sliders. The ranch is a nice complement to the shredded chicken. The mound of bacon is held down by a thick gooey cheese layer. You get a bit of tang from the Dijon mustard. Brushing melted garlic butter on at the end is the perfect last touch. Serve these to friends and watch them disappear.
