Burger Barn: Smalls Sliders coming to North OKC

Smalls Sliders is sliding into North Oklahoma City.

OKLAHOMA CITY (OBV) — Smalls Sliders is sliding into North Oklahoma City.

Local operator Kyle Abrusley and his Slide Thru group signed a multi‑unit development agreement to open several locations, extending their Oklahoma run after debuting the brand’s first in‑state “Can” in Tulsa in September 2025.

“From our first conversations with the Smalls team to opening our Tulsa Can, the brand has continued to exceed our expectations,” Abrusley said. “Signing a second agreement allows us to build on that foundation and thoughtfully expand into North Oklahoma City, bringing the Smalls experience to more communities we know and care about.”

Smalls Sliders serves cooked‑to‑order cheeseburger sliders, seasoned waffle fries and hand‑spun shakes out of its signature “Smorange” shipping‑container restaurants, called Cans. The company says the streamlined model has powered growth to more than 375 Cans open or under development across 30 states.

“Kyle and his team are exactly the kind of operators we look to grow with,” said Clint Penfield, Chief Operating Officer for Smalls Sliders. “Their decision to sign a second development agreement speaks volumes about their confidence in the Smalls model and the opportunity they see in Oklahoma. We’re proud to support their continued expansion in North Oklahoma City.”
