Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound ground pork sausage (16 ounces)
  • 2 cups baking mix or homemade Bisquick mix
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons jalapeño optional, finely chopped
  • 1 pound cheddar cheese shredded (16 ounces, sharp
  • cup pecans finely chopped or pecan chips

Instructions

  1. Allow the ground sausage to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire baking rack onto the lined pan. Spray the rack with nonstick cooking spray. This step will allow the grease to drip off onto the pan below.
  3. Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl. Use clean hands to evenly combine the mixture. Do not worry about there being too much baking mix; it will incorporate as you mix everything together. You can speed up this process by using your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. 
  4. Use a medium cookie scoop (1 1/2 tablespoons) to portion the mixture. Roll each portion into a ball and place onto the prepared baking rack. 
  5. Bake the sausage balls for 18-22 minutes.
  6. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as homemade ranch dip.

Notes

  • For a mild version, use mild pork sausage. For a spicier version, use medium or hot pork sausage.
