Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Sausage Balls
Report
These Cheddar Bay Sausage Balls make a super cheesy and comforting appetizer, especially when enjoyed straight from the oven.

Ingredients
- ½ pound pork chorizo
- 2 cups pepper jack cheese (shredded)
- 1 cup Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
- ¼ cup sliced pickled jalapenos (optional)
- dipping sauce of your choice (pictured, Fiery Chipotle Gourmaise by Boar’s Head)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Put parchment paper on a baking sheet (for easy cleanup!).
- Add the pork chorizo, Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix, and sliced pickled jalapenos to a food processor. Pulse for 15-20 seconds, until combined.
- Add the shredded pepper jack cheese. Pulse for another 15-20 seconds, until combined.
- Use a tablespoon, overfilling it slightly, as a guide to help you achieve uniform balls.
- Roll the mixture between your hands to form round balls. Arrange balls on the baking sheet. Bake for 24-26 minutes.
- Remove from oven and immediately place on a cooling rack (so that any excess grease can drain off). Serve the Cheddar Bay Chorizo Balls on their own or with a dipping sauce of your choice.
- If there are any leftovers, store them in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Notes
- *Nutrition information is approximate and was calculated using an online nutrition calculator.
- Avoid "soupy" or overly greasy chorizo. I always reach for a pork chorizo for this recipe since pork tends to be leaner than beef.
- Bake safely. Bake sausage balls at 350°F (175°C) until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
- Size your balls. I usually get 18 decent-sized sausage balls from this recipe, using a tablespoon to measure out even sizes. If you prefer a smaller size, go for it! As long as you focus on making your balls the same sizes they should cook evenly. Just check earlier, around 18-20 minutes of baking, to make sure smaller balls don't overcook.
