Add the chips to a food processor, process until just crumbs remain.
Add the chips, crab meat, salt, pepper, cayenne, Old Bay, egg, chives, and bell pepper, mix to combine.
Lay a sheet of aluminum foil on a flat surface. Form the crab cake mixture into a long log down the center of the aluminum foil, roll the foil around the log until tightly covered, twist the ends.
Place the log in the freezer for 15 minutes (to make this in advance, refrigerate for up to 24 hours, then freeze just prior to use).
Remove from the freezer and slice the log into 12, 1-inch slices.
Heat the butter in a large skillet. A few at a time, gently press the circles with a flat hand to make them slightly thinner and more compact.
Place the crab cakes in the skillet, cooking on both sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Remove from the skillet, place on a stack of paper towels.
Stir together all the remoulade ingredients until well combined.
To assemble the sliders add a piece of lettuce, and a crab cake to the middle of each bun, drizzle with remoulade, serve immediately, with a pilsner.
