Method
Prepare the Filling
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it is no longer pink, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain off any excess fat.
- Stir in the ketchup, water, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Assemble and Bake
- Transfer the meat mixture to a large bowl. Add the quartered biscuit pieces and gently toss until the biscuits are evenly coated with the sauce.
- Pour the biscuit and meat mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake for 28 to 30 minutes, until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown and the casserole is bubbly around the edges. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version. For extra flavor, add 1/4 cup diced onion and 1/4 cup diced green bell pepper while browning the beef. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat in the oven or microwave. To make ahead, prepare the filling a day in advance, then combine with biscuits and bake just before serving. Avoid overmixing the biscuit pieces to keep them tender. Serve with a side of roasted California artichokes or a simple green salad.
