Ingredients
-
1 pound ground beef (or substitute with ground turkey)
-
¾ cup ketchup
-
¼ cup water
-
3 teaspoons brown sugar
-
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
-
2 teaspoons mustard
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
1 (12 oz) can Pillsbury biscuits (Grands Jr’s preferred), cut into quarters
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
-
Cook the meat: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef (or turkey) until no longer pink. Drain excess fat.
-
Make the sauce: Stir in ketchup, water, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to meld flavors.
-
Mix in biscuits: Transfer the meat mixture to a large bowl. Add the quartered biscuit pieces and gently toss to coat them evenly.
-
Assemble the casserole: Spread the biscuit-meat mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
-
Top with cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
-
Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
-
Serve hot: Let cool slightly before serving, then dig into this cheesy, bubbly goodness!
Notes
-
Don’t overmix the biscuits: Gently folding the biscuit pieces prevents them from becoming soggy or tearing.
-
Add veggies: You can sneak in finely chopped bell peppers or onions while cooking the beef for added flavor and nutrition.
-
Spice it up: A dash of chili powder or hot sauce in the sauce mixture adds a flavorful kick if you like heat.
-
Freezer tip: Assemble the casserole ahead and freeze unbaked. Thaw overnight in the fridge and bake as directed.
