Ingredients

To make these delightful Barbecue Beef Cups, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 package of refrigerated biscuit dough
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: sliced green onions or cilantro for garnish

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to whip up these delectable Barbecue Beef Cups:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the meat is browned and the onion is soft. Drain the excess grease if necessary.
  3. Add the barbecue sauce to the cooked beef mixture, stir to combine, and let it simmer for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. While the meat is simmering, prepare your biscuit dough. Open the package and separate the biscuits. You should have about 8 biscuits.
  5. Grease a muffin tin to prevent sticking. Take each biscuit and flatten it slightly with your fingers. Gently press each biscuit into the bottom and up the sides of the muffin cups to form a little cup.
  6. Once your biscuit cups are ready, fill each one with the barbecue beef mixture, ensuring you don’t overfill it.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously on top of each filled cup.
  8. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. After baking, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Use a knife to gently loosen the edges and carefully remove the cups.
  10. Garnish with sliced green onions or cilantro if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
