One evening I sat wondering WTF I should make for dinner. I had some hamburger and some cheese. I spotted a can of Grands biscuits in the back of the fridge, and I knew I had the makings for BBQ sauce. Light bulb moment.
At first I thought about sloppy joe empanadas or maybe tiny bbq pizzas. A quick look online steered me towards BBQ Pie.
1 can Grands flaky biscuits
1 lb hamburger
Your favorite bbq sauce (or whip up some like I did - I'll tell you how below)
1 cup or so of colby/jack cheese
Spray an 8x12 baking dish with PAM and press the biscuits into the bottom, around the edges, and up the sides. Be patient and smoosh all the seams together. Pop into the oven at the recommended temperature for about 10 minutes. You want to give the biscuits a bit of a head start so they won't be raw on the inside.
Brown the hamburger and season with salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder (or dried onions) and drain completely. While the meat is cooking heat up your BBQ sauce or make your own. I use about a cup of ketchup, about a 1/4 cup of light brown sugar, a tablespoon or so of apple cider vinegar, and salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder. I also include a few splashes of green chili sauce. Add all ingredients into a sauce pan and heat. Be sure to give it a taste...you can adjust according to your preference of heat, tang or sweetness.
When you're happy with the sauce, pour it over the meat and drizzle a couple of teaspoons of yellow mustard into the mix. Stir well.
Take the now somewhat-browned biscuits out of the oven and pile on meat mixture. Spread evenly around the dish and top with cheese. Return the dish to the oven for another 8-10 minutes or until the edges of the biscuits are brown and the cheese is bubbly hot.
Serve with dill pickles and baked beans. So stupidly easy.
