⅓cupminced cilantro
2tablespoonshoisin sauce

Easy Spicy Mayo:

Instructions
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Clean grill grates well to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, stir together pork with garlic, salt, hoisin, soy, and sesame. Stir together well.
Make meatballs by portioning out 2.5-3 ounce portions of mixture and shape into an oblong oval. Skewer each meatball to make for easier grilling. You can probably fit two meatballs on each skewer.
Repeat until you run out of meatball mixture.
Add meatballs to pre-heated grill and grill for 5-6 minutes per side until meatballs are cooked through and charred in spots on the outside. Remove the meatballs and make sure they are cooked through by cutting one in half.
Make sauce by stirring together ingredients in a small bowl.
To make slicers, smear on some sauce onto your slider bun. Add lettuce and cucumber. Top with grilled pork meatball (one per slider) and add more sauce.
Serve immediately.
Leftover pork meatballs keep great in the fridge for 4-5 days. They reheat well in the microwave and can also be served over rice as a meal.
