Directions
-
Preheat your oven according to the biscuit dough package instructions.
-
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bulk pork sausage until browned and cooked through, breaking it into small crumbles or forming into patties as desired.
-
Drain any excess grease from the cooked sausage using a paper towel.
-
While the sausage cooks, prepare the biscuit dough by separating the biscuits if they are connected.
-
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake as directed on the can until golden brown and fully cooked.
-
Once the biscuits are baked, let them cool slightly before handling.
-
Carefully slice each biscuit in half horizontally, creating a top and bottom bun.
-
Place a portion of the cooked sausage onto the bottom half of each biscuit.
-
Top the sausage with two quarter-slices of American cheese.
-
Place the top half of the biscuit over the cheese and sausage to complete the sandwich.
-
For immediate serving, enjoy warm. To freeze, wrap each biscuit sandwich individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag.
-
To reheat frozen biscuits, remove the plastic wrap and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on defrost for 1 minute.
-
Microwave for an additional 1 to 1 1/4 minutes on defrost or until the cheese is melted and the sausage is thoroughly heated.
