Main Ingredients:
1 lb. lean ground beef
1/4 c. onion, finely chopped
1/4 c. celery, finely chopped
1/4 c. green bell pepper, finely chopped
1/2 c. prepared barbeque sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 can (12 ounces) refrigerated flaky buttermilk biscuits
5 slices (1 ounce each) Cheddar cheese, quartered
Directions:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. In large nonstick skillet, brown ground beef, celery, onion and bell pepper over medium heat 6 minutes or until outside surface of beef is no longer pink, breaking beef up into 1/2-inch crumbles. Pour off drippings. Stir in barbecue sauce and salt. Simmer, uncovered, 2-3 minutes; stir occasionally.
- Meanwhile place 1 biscuit into each of 10 ungreased standard-sized muffin cups; press dough firmly onto bottoms and up sides of cups. Spoon approximately 1/4 c. beef mixture into each biscuit cup.
- Bake in 400 degree oven 10-12 minutes or until edges of biscuits are golden brown. Arrange 2 pieces of cheese on top of each biscuit cup. Continue baking 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Let stand 1 minute. Loosen edges of biscuit cups before removing from pan. Makes 10 biscuit cups.
Recipe Tips:
- You can use your favorite beef barbecue sauce (sloppy Joe) recipe if you would like instead of using prepared barbecue sauce.
- American cheese (5 slices) may be substituted for cheddar cheese.
- To reheat one biscuit cup, place on microwave-safe dish. Microwave on HIGH 30-45 seconds.
- Use your favorite cookie cutter to cut out the cheese into festive shapes!
