Description

Stuffed Sloppy Joe Bombs are soft biscuit rolls filled with a savory sloppy joe mixture and melted cheese, baked until golden brown. Perfect as a fun appetizer, snack, or dinner option.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter (for brushing)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and diced onion until beef is browned and onions are soft. Drain excess fat.
  3. Add ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. Flatten each biscuit dough round and place about 2 tablespoons of the sloppy joe mixture in the center.
  5. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, then fold and pinch edges to seal into a ball.
  6. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with olive oil or melted butter.
  7. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown.
  8. Serve warm, optionally with extra sloppy joe sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for beef.
  • Shredded mozzarella or pepper jack can be used instead of cheddar for a different flavor.
  • Best served fresh, but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
