LIGHTENED-UP ASIAN TURKEY SLIDERS

Steps:

• Special equipment: a 10-by-15-inch broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet
• Position an oven rack 4 to 5 inches from the heating element, and preheat the broiler. Brush a 10-by-15-inch broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet with the oil.
• Put the turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, scallions, fish sauce, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl, and mix gently, just enough to incorporate evenly. Drop mounds of the mixture all around the prepared baking sheet, and press them into an even layer. Score the meat into 24 even squares, cutting down almost all the way. Brush the top with the hoisin sauce. Broil until the meat is browned and glazed and registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 8 to 9 minutes.
• Carefully pour off any excess liquid from the cookie sheet. Rescore the meat into 24 sliders, then follow the score lines with a spatula to divide. Top each slider with a cucumber slice and a cilantro leaf.
• While the sliders are cooking, arrange the lettuce, remaining cilantro, carrots, onions and lime wedges on a serving platter. Put the peanuts and Sriracha if using in small serving bowls. Slide a spatula in the pan and let guests build their sliders with their desired toppings.

PULLED BRISKET SLIDERS

Steps:

• With a stovetop burner set to high, use tongs to hold each chile about 3 inches from the flame and toast until slightly puffed and aromatic, about 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining chiles, transferring them to a large bowl as toasted. Cover the chiles with about 1 quart boiling water. (If the chiles float, puncture each with a small knife to let the water inside.) Steep the chiles until soft and pliable, about 30 minutes. Drain and let cool. Once the chiles are cool enough to handle, remove the stems and most of the seeds and transfer to a blender or the bowl of a food processor.
• While the chiles are soaking, arrange a rack about 6 inches from the flame and preheat the broiler. Arrange the tomatoes on the broiler pan or a baking sheet and broil, flipping several times to expose all sides, until the entire surface is charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Let the tomatoes cool slightly then remove and discard the charred skin. Add the tomato flesh to the chiles in the blender or food processor. Add the garlic, oregano, cumin, cloves, and 1 cup water and process until smooth.
• Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 300°F. Cut a piece of parchment into a round the same size as a large Dutch oven.
• Season the meat with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven over moderate heat, heat the oil until hot but not smoking. Working in batches, sear the meat until brown on all sides, about 4 minutes per side. As browned, transfer the meat to a plate.
• Once all of the meat is seared, return it all to the pot and add the reserved chile-tomato purée. Bring to a boil and then place the parchment round over the meat. Cover the pot with a lid and transfer to the oven. Cook until the meat is very tender and falling apart, about 3 hours. Discard the parchment then transfer the meat to a cutting board and use two forks to shred it into small pieces, discarding any excess fat. Skim any excess fat from the braising liquid then return the meat to the pot and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: The brisket can be made ahead and stored with its braising liquid, in an airtight container in the refrigerator, up to 3 days. To reheat, place the desired portion in an appropriate-size skillet over moderate heat and cook until warmed through.
• To serve:
• Divide the pulled brisket evenly among the buns (about 2 tablespoons per bun) and serve immediately.

Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until meat is tender. , Remove brisket and keep warm. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into cooking juices. Cover and cook on high for 30 minutes or until thickened. Meanwhile, in a large skillet or wok, stir-fry the carrots, peppers and onions in remaining olive oil until crisp-tender.

HAWAIIAN ROAST BEEF SLIDERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Slice Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Open the rolls like a book, and place the bottom halves, cut-sides up, on the prepared baking sheet.
• Place 1 piece Provolone cheese on the cut side of each bottom roll. Spread 1 teaspoon mayonnaise on the cut side of each top roll.
• Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, chili-garlic sauce, and ginger in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and is reduced by half, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Dip one slice of roast beef into the sauce, coating both sides. Place on a bottom roll, folding to fit. Repeat with remaining beef slices until all rolls are covered. Place top halves of rolls on top of beef. Cover with foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and sliders are heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Secure a pineapple tidbit on top of each slider with a toothpick and sprinkle with chopped green onions for garnish. Serve warm.

SPICY PORK BELLY SLIDERS

Steps:

• To make the marinade, put the onion, gochujang, soy sauce, garlic, sugar, sake, mirin, and sesame oil in a bowl and mix well to combine. Add the pork and turn to coat the meat. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, set a large sauté pan over medium heat. Once it's hot, add the pork, working in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan and leaving any liquid in the bowl. Cook, stirring occasionally and flipping the meat, until lightly caramelized and golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. (If you overcrowd the pan, the meat will steam instead of sear.) Transfer to a platter.
• When the meat is cooked, open the buns, butter the interiors, and toast them until they are a light golden brown.
• To serve, spread both cut sides of each bun with a healthy smear of mayo and pile the spicy pork generously on the bottoms of the buns. Top with the sliced cucumbers. Serve immediately.
• Cooks' Note:
• The pork belly must be marinated overnight. You can also grill the pork on an outdoor grill over a high flame. The sugars in the marinade will char and caramelize, giving you a more interesting texture and flavor, but be careful not to burn the pork.
