How to Make Hungry Man Casserole

  1. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Stir in 1 tsp salt, 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce, and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Pour the beef mixture into a greased 2-quart casserole dish.
  4. Cut 1 (16.3-ounce) can of refrigerated biscuits in half to create 20 half-circles. Arrange the biscuits, cut-side down, around the edge of the casserole dish, pressing gently into the meat mixture.
  5. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the biscuits.
  6. Bake, uncovered, in a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
