Pimento Cheese Sausage Balls

Pimento Cheese Sausage Balls

When I saw @CookinWithBabe drop her version of pimento cheese sausage balls, I knew I had to make my own twist on it Blazing Star style! I took my creamy homemade pimento cheese and combined it with my classic sausage ball recipe, seasoned perfectly with our Blazing Star All In One Seasoning.

These bite-sized beauties are smoky, cheesy, spicy, and seriously addictive, I had to make two batches because they disappeared fast! Perfect for parties, BBQs, or gameday snacking.

🛒Ingredients

For the Pimento Cheese

  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup diced pimentos (drained)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp Blazing Star All In One Seasoning

For the Sausage Balls

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage (mild or hot)
  • 2 cups Bisquick or self-rising baking mix
  • 1½ cups prepared pimento cheese (from above)
  • 1 tbsp Blazing Star All In One Seasoning

🔥Instructions

  1. Make the Pimento Cheese:
    In a bowl, combine shredded cheddar, mayo, diced pimentos, garlic powder, onion powder, and All In One Seasoning. Mix until creamy and well combined. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Sausage Mixture:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the breakfast sausage, baking mix, pimento cheese, and All In One Seasoning. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly incorporated.
  3. Form the Balls:
     Roll the mixture into bite-sized balls (about 1½ inches each) and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake:
    Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 22–25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve:
    Let cool slightly and serve warm. These are perfect on their own or with a dipping sauce like Blazing Star BBQ Spicy Sauce for an extra kick!

💡Pro Tips
