Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.75 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for spice)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (16.3 ounces) refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch by 13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Mix well to combine and let simmer for 3-5 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Transfer the sloppy joe mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and arrange the biscuits over the cheese layer, evenly spaced. Slightly overlap the biscuits if necessary to cover most of the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.
Allow the Sloppy Joe Bake to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
