White Castle is ready to steal turkey’s thunder this Thanksgiving with the introduction of yet another fantastic stuffing recipe: the Kickin’ Southwest Stuffin’ Muffins.

This spicy take on the holiday staple continues White Castle’s long-standing tradition of providing unique and delicious stuffing recipes using world-famous Sliders.
The Kickin’ Southwest Stuffin’ Muffins are packed with corn, green onions, chili powder, a variety of peppers, and the main ingredient — Jalapeño Cheese Sliders, which can be purchased fresh from White Castle restaurants or frozen from retail stores across the U.S.
Baked in muffin tins to create individual-size servings, this peppery flavored stuffing will, no doubt, attract all of the attention once they’re pulled from the oven.
They’re so good, in fact, that some people might just choose them as their main dish!
White Castle’s Original Slider Stuffing originated when a White Castle team member enhanced her grandmother’s family stuffing recipe with a sack of Sliders.
Other varieties include the Impossible Slider Stuffing, which uses the Impossible Slider as the base, the Bacon Jalapeño Cheese Slider Stuffing and the Southwestern Jalapeño Cheese Slider Stuffing.
