Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese)
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika until browned. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and remove from heat. Let it cool slightly before mixing in shredded cheese.
- Assemble the Bombs: Flatten each biscuit dough piece into a circle. Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center and pinch the edges together to form a sealed ball.
- Garlic Parmesan Coating: In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic. Brush the mixture over each dough ball. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and optional parsley.
- Bake: Arrange the bombs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with dipping sauces like ketchup, ranch, or garlic aioli.
FAQs:
1. Can I use different cheese?

2. Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! Prepare them up to the baking step, store them in the fridge for a few hours, then bake when ready.
3. Can I use homemade dough?
Of course! If you have the time, homemade biscuit or pizza dough can elevate this recipe even more.
