In a large bowl, gently combine the ground beef, minced yellow onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the patties tough. Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and form into small, thin patties, roughly 2 inches in diameter.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd it (cook in batches if necessary). Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a quarter slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty to melt.

While the patties are cooking, prepare the sriracha mayo. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha, and lime juice until well combined. Taste and adjust sriracha to your preference.

Steam the bao buns according to package directions. This typically involves steaming them in a bamboo steamer over simmering water for 3 to 5 minutes, or until soft and fluffy.

To assemble the Spicy Sriracha Cheeseburger Bao, open each steamed bao bun. Spread a generous amount of sriracha mayo on the inside of the bun. Add a small lettuce leaf, then top with a cheesy mini burger patty, and a few dill pickle slices. Serve immediately and enjoy!
