An irresistible combination of Angus Beef, Jamaican jerk spices, and coleslaw, these Jamaican Jerk Beef Sliders with Citrus Coleslaw are great appetizers for both family gatherings or as a main dish any time of the week. They are tender, juicy and fragrant. My kids can’t get enough of them. Try them out!
Thank you to High River Angus® for making this recipe post possible. As always my comments, opinions, and love for enjoying tasty foods with my family are my own.
The first time I tried Jamaican jerk spices was at Mama Roomba, a fabulous restaurant offering a fusion of Caribbean, Latin, and Mexican dishes. I’d never tasted that pungent combination of spices before. I loved them and I’ve never forgotten that experience.
So when my friends at Colorado Boxed Beef asked me to create a recipe for their juicy, High River® Angus ground beef, I immediately thought Jamaican jerk sliders.
First, you add the Jamaican jerk spices to the already flavorful ground beef, then you grill the patties and top them with a generous serving of citrus coleslaw. Heaven!
This dish is ideal for a quick lunch, or snack after school. Add a serving of sweet potato fries and lime agua fresca and you have a scrumptious dinner.

Cooking Tip: Grilling is what I recommend for creating that distinctive char on the meat. When the temperature is right I use my outdoor grill; however, when I want to grill something fast, my cast iron grill pan is my best friend. If you don’t own one, I highly recommend getting one. You won’t regret it.
If you make these Jamaican jerk beef sliders, be sure to snap a photo and share it with us on social media using the #mamalatinatipsrecipes hashtag. I’d love to see it and have a chance to share it as well.
