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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch by 13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

Transfer the sloppy joe mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Step 6

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.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.

Step 8

Allow the Sloppy Joe Bake to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
