Best ways to enjoy it
These Cheesy Bacon Ranch Burger Stuffed Biscuit Bombs are delightful on their own, but they also pair well with a variety of sides! Consider serving them with a refreshing side salad, crispy potato wedges, or sweet potato fries for a meal that feels complete. Don’t forget dipping sauces; ranch dressing or BBQ sauce makes for a fantastic addition!
Keeping leftovers fresh
If you have any leftovers (though they are unlikely!), store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop them in the microwave for a minute or two, or warm them in an oven preheated to 350°F until heated through. If you’d like to save them for longer, these biscuit bombs can be frozen before baking; just place them on a baking sheet until frozen, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag.
Helpful cooking tips
- Don’t overfill the biscuits; otherwise, they might burst while baking.
- For a golden finish, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
- Add some chopped green onions or jalapeños to the filling for an extra kick.
Creative twists
Feel free to get creative! Swap out the ground beef for cooked chicken or turkey, or try a vegetarian twist with black beans and corn for a meatless option. You can also experiment with different seasonings or cheeses, like pepper jack for a spicy kick or mozzarella for a gooey pull.
