Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup sweet bell pepper, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 can (16.3 ounces) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). This ensures the oven is ready once the casserole is assembled.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, chopped onion, and bell pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and the vegetables are soft, about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally and use a spatula to break up the beef.
  3. Add the minced garlic, tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 3-5 minutes to blend the flavors.
  4. Pour the Sloppy Joe mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish. Spread it evenly across the bottom.
  5. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the Sloppy Joe mixture in the baking dish.
  6. Cut each biscuit in the can of refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters. Arrange the biscuit pieces evenly over the casserole to form a top layer.
  7. Brush the biscuit pieces with the melted butter using a pastry brush. This will help give them a golden, crispy finish.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the biscuit pieces.
  9. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are cooked through and golden brown.
  10. Let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes before serving. This will make it easier to cut and serve.
