Description

These Sausage Rounds are a hearty, crowd-pleasing appetizer perfect for parties or game day gatherings. The filling combines ground beef and hot sausage for a savory, spicy kick, melted with creamy Velveeta cheese. Seasoned with garlic powder, oregano, and a dash of Tabasco, the mixture is spread onto slices of party rye bread. The sandwiches can be assembled ahead of time and frozen, then broiled until the cheese is bubbly and the bread is lightly toasted. The result is a warm, melty, and flavorful bite that balances heat and comfort. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Brown 1 lb ground beef and 1 lb hot sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until fully cooked.
  2. Drain the excess fat from the cooked meat mixture.
  3. Reduce heat to low and add slices of Velveeta cheese on top of the meat, covering the skillet until the cheese melts into the mixture.
  4. Stir in salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and 3 dashes of Tabasco sauce to taste.
  5. Slice the party rye bread rounds and spread the sausage and cheese mixture evenly onto each slice.
  6. Arrange the sandwiches on a baking sheet and broil at 400&# 194;°F (204ðC) for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the bread is lightly toasted.

Note

To freeze: Assemble the sandwiches on a baking sheet and freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. Broil directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time if needed.

Ingredient substitution: Use mild sausage instead of hot sausage for a milder flavor, or add more Tabasco for extra heat.

Cooking tip: Keep a close eye on the sandwiches while broiling to prevent the bread from burning.
