Recipe Courtesy of Paula DeenServings: 5 dozen sausage balls, about 1 cup dip
Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 20 min
Difficulty: Easy
4 cups grated sharp Cheddar cheese
3 cups Bisquick baking mix
1 1-pound package ground sausage
1/8 tablespoon Pepper
Dip:
1 tablespoon mustard
1 cup mayonnaise
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray.
Combine all ingredients in a large glass bowl. Mix well with your fingers. The mixture will be very crumbly.
Form into 1 inch balls, squeezing the mixture so it holds together, then rolling it between the palms of your hands to form balls.
Place the balls on the baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown. To prevent sticking, move the balls with a spatula halfway through cooking.
To make the dip, combine mustard and mayonnaise. Serve with sausage balls.

I have been trying to find a recipe I saw you and your son make last week. You used 3 cups biscuit flour, 4 sausage link, 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese. You put 1/2 tomato on top. After baking 12 mins. you put oven on broil to toast tomatoes last few mins. I could not get it all to stick together. I added skim milk to help hold it together. It turned out ok. I just wondered if I did not write something down. I will wait on reply. Thank you.

There has got to be some missing bit of instructions or ingredient on this. I tried making last night and it being 'crumbly' is a HUUUUGE understatement. It was terrible to work with. The ingredients would not come together at all and it came out so dry once I cooked them. I give it two thumbs down.

These came out so dry and bland. I was thinking that if I put them in a sauce to reheat -chili sauce or raspberry chipolte or???? I made them two days early to freeze until party time. How long can they be in the sauce -ie just hours or the day before?? Help

I have had these once before. I had seen the recipe on the Food Network and my family and I loved, loved, loved this recipe. I am doing a brunch this weekend with my toughest critic...My Dad and Step-Mom. Dad is funny about trying different takes on things but I am confident that he will love these.
By Terri Jeffcocat on April 26, 2012
These turned out delicious! A helpful hint is to have the sausage and cheese at room temperature before you mix with Bisquick. This makes it easier to mix in the Bisquick. The mixture will still be a little crumbly but the heat from your hands when forming the balls will help keep the mixture together. I bake them for 30 minutes as we like them crispy. Just make sure you don't burn on bottom. Paula's recipes are true authentic southern comfort food.

Love these sausage balls and the recipe is perfect as is! I have made them many times and they are always perfect. I bake them on my Pampered Chef stoneware bar pan which really helps keep them from browning too much on the bottom. Please just try the recipe as is before you attempt to tweak it, you will not be disappointed!

i just made the sausage balls ,very good my family really enjoyed them ....thanks so much
By dawn clemens-true on November 29, 2011
Lisa it calls for 3 cups of Bisquick not 4. That is probably where ya went wrong. I looooove them!!!

Does anyone actually try these recipes before reviewing? I made exactly as Paula suggested and the consistency was literally so dry that I had to throw it away. There is no way you used 4 cups of bisquick and 1 lb of sausage and were able to form balls!!
By Lisa on September 03, 2011
The first time I made these I could have kicked myself for listening to one of the reviews and using 1.5 cup of Bisquick instead of the 3 cups Paula recommend. Won't do that again, EVER! The second time I made them I followed the recipe to a T and they were gone in a flash!! Thanks, Paula.

Made this for my sons baseball celebration party for 60 people and modified the mozzerella cheese for the cheddar and served with a marinara basil sauce. WOW what a hit with the whole team. Thanks again for sharing such good delights

Paula, you are my "go to girl" anytime I need a recipe. I've never been disappointed in anything, even this one. My absolute favorite is the recipe for your "Orange Coffee Cake" (which I call a "Sunrise Coffee Cake" because it looks like a sunflower). You're AWESOME!
By Pam Holt on April 04, 2011
WOrks better with 1.5 cups of Bisquick.
