Main Ingredients
- 1 lb pulled pork
- â…” cup barbecue sauce
- 1¼ cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- 2 (6-oz) cans refrigerated biscuits (10 biscuits total)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Lightly spray a regular muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Pulled Pork Filling: In a large bowl, combine the pulled pork, barbecue sauce, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is evenly blended.
- Prepare the Biscuit Cups: Open the cans of refrigerated biscuits and separate them into 10 individual biscuits. Using a rolling pin, roll each biscuit into a larger circle to fit the muffin pan cups. Firmly press each rolled biscuit into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup to create a cup shape.
- Fill the Biscuit Cups: Spoon the pulled pork and cheese mixture evenly into each biscuit cup, filling them generously but not overflowing.
- Add Cheese Topping: Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tops of the filled biscuit cups.
- Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 17 to 20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, sprinkle dried parsley over the biscuits for a pop of color and mild flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- You can substitute pulled pork with shredded chicken for a different protein option.
- Adjust the barbecue sauce amount to taste if you prefer a more or less tangy flavor.
- For extra crispiness, brush the biscuit edges with melted butter before baking.
- These biscuits are best served fresh but can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes if needed.
- Using a nonstick muffin pan or properly greasing the pan ensures easy removal of the biscuits.
