These Savory BBQ Beef Biscuit Cups are a delightful twist on a classic comfort food, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Prepare a standard muffin tin by lightly greasing 10 cups.
Use a non-stick spray or a small amount of butter for greasing.
In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, about 6-8 minutes.
Break up the beef into small pieces for even cooking.
Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, diced celery, and chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Stir in the barbecue sauce and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together.
Press a biscuit dough piece into each muffin cup, forming a cup shape.
Ensure the dough covers the bottom and sides evenly.
Spoon the beef mixture evenly into each biscuit cup.
Fill each cup generously but avoid overfilling.
Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the top of each filled cup.
This adds a savory crust to the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuit edges are golden brown.
Check for doneness by observing the biscuit edges.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top. Return to the oven for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
Melting the cheese creates a gooey topping.
Let the cups cool for 1 minute, then carefully remove them from the tin.
Use a small spatula to gently lift the cups out.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious BBQ Beef Biscuit Cups!
Pair with a fresh salad or steamed veggies for a complete meal.
