Step-by-Step Method

1. Preheat the Oven

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish or a similar casserole dish. Greasing the dish helps prevent the beef mixture and biscuits from sticking and makes serving easier.

2. Brown the Ground Beef

Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef.

Cook for approximately 5–7 minutes, breaking the meat apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Continue until the beef is browned and no longer pink.

If there is a large amount of excess grease in the skillet, carefully drain it before continuing.

3. Add the Onion and Garlic

Add the diced onion to the browned beef.

Cook for another 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion begins to soften.

Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. The garlic should become fragrant without browning too much.

4. Build the Cheeseburger Flavor

Stir in the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Mix thoroughly so the seasonings coat the beef.

The combination of ketchup and mustard gives the filling that unmistakable cheeseburger character, while Worcestershire sauce adds a deeper savory flavor.
