    • Reviews

  • “This is an excellent casserole dish!I usually leave out the chiles because I don’t often have them and don’t miss them. Also, I just press the raw biscuits into my pan to cover the bottom, pour the meat mixture over it, top with the remaining biscuits, then the cheese.Bake it altogether.I gave my friend this recipe and we renamed it after her husband because he likes it so much!”

  • “This is great!My kids decided that this should be called Awesome Sloppy Joe Casserole.The only change I made was to use homemade biscuits instead of the kind out of the tube.Very Good.”

  • “I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out very well.My husband enjoyed it the most – he said it reminded him of his mother’s cooking. I’m sure I will be making this again once the winter weather comes around again. Thanks.”

  • “I also noticed that the biscuits became too done with the amount of time directed, (but that’s the way baking goes sometimes!). I baked the first layer of biscuits for a few minutes before adding the other ingredients, which worked well. Due to some dietary issues, I omitted the tomato, the chiles, and most of the sour cream, and the casserole was still yummy. (I bet it is divine with all of that, though!) I may try the recipe again, adding a creamy sauce of some kind for moisture (my version was a little dry). Thanks!”

  • “I love this recipe and so does my family! My mom would make this when I was growing up and I was delighted to find it here! Thanks for the post DiB!”

  • “EDITED REVIEW: This has a nice flavor.I must have misunderstood the “slightly brown” the biscuits part and when the casserole was finished completely, the biscuits were way too done. What I did was take the total stated 55 minute cooking time listed and subtract the 35 minute cooking time (as listed after you put the topping on) for a total of 20 minutes to “slightly brown” the biscuits.Next time, I will just set the biscuits before spooning the mixture on (maybe 5 minutes)and use the cooking time of 35 minutes for the ENTIRE cooking time.This recipe is worth making again to figure out the correct cooking time/temp for the biscuits to be done, yet still tender.”

  • “Very easy and very good casserole. I made this for my grandmother and my parents. They all seemed to like it. Will make this again but next time I will use hotter chili powder since I like spicey foods. Thanks for the recipe!”
