How to Make Barbeque Beef In Biscuit Baskets

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1.5 lbs ground beef and 1 medium onion (chopped) to the pot. Brown the beef, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in 1 ½ cups of your favorite barbecue sauce, 1 tablespoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  6. Open a can (16.3 oz) of refrigerated biscuits. Separate the biscuits.
  7. Microwave biscuits on 50% power for 30-40 seconds to soften (adjust time as needed).
  8. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
  9. Gently flatten each biscuit and press it into each muffin cup, forming a basket shape.
  10. Bake the biscuit baskets for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. Once removed from the oven, immediately use the back of a spoon or ice cream scoop to gently press the biscuit baskets down into the muffin tin to flatten and create a deeper basket.
  12. Divide the barbecue beef evenly among the biscuit baskets.
  13. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) over the beef.
  14. Bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
