INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 1/2 cup prepared BBQ sauce
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 can refrigerated flaky buttermilk biscuits
- 5 slices cheddar cheese quartered
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat oven to 400. In a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef, celery, onion, and bell pepper 6 mins or until outside of surface of beef is no longer pink, breaking beef up into 1/2 inch crumbles. Pour off drippings.
- Stir in BBQ sauce and salt. Simmer, uncovered 2 to 3 mins, stir occasionally.
- Meanwhile, place 1 biscuit into each of 10 ungreased standard size muffin cups; press dough firmly onto bottoms and upsides of cups. Spoon about 1/4 cup of beef mixture into each biscuit cup.
- Bake at 400 in oven for 10-11 min or until edges of biscuits are golden brown. Arrange 2 pieces of cheese on top of each biscuit cup. Continue baking for 1-2 min or until cheese is melted.
- Let stand one minute. Loosen edges of biscuit cups before removing from pan. ENJOY!
Fry Fam’s TIPS
- Best served with a side of french fries or coleslaw!
- I personally recommend and have had the vest success using Pillsbury biscuits, but any biscuit brand should work just fine.
