Over the years I’ve learned the secret to an easy weeknight meal, EASY IS BEST! I LOVE making Budget Friendly Meals that are quick and easy and best for busy weeknights, because we are always busy it seems.
I truly believe that it’s sooo important to have good healthy meals and snacks throughout each day to keep strong and healthy bodies going. Here’s the thing…I simply get tired. It’s exhausting cooking so much every day, especially after a busy weekend of sports!
Cheesy Sloppy Joe Hamburger Patty Casserole with Frozen Hamburger Patties
For this super Easy Sloppy Joe Hamburger Patty Casserole I’m using Hunt’s Manwich Sloppy Joe sauce and oooh how the fam. loved it! Hunt’s Sloppy Joe Sauce also has new flavors too, Thick and Chunky and Bold! YUM! I used Bold to make this hamburger patty casserole but you can use whatever you like best!
This recipe doesn’t call for hamburger buns and is one of those easy dinners with simple ingredients!
Handy tip: Make This Your Own!
As mentioned above, use whatever flavor you like for the Sloppy Joe Sauce. I want to encourage you to make this the way your family will love it! You can have veggies, different kinds of cheeses, and even a different kind of biscuit/bread topping. Also, you can use Ground Turkey Hamburger Patties for this recipe! So you see you can easily make this a family favorite!
Did you know that National Sloppy Joe Day is March 18?!
Yep, it is…so let’s get our Sloppy on and make something wonderful and easy today!
Ingredients:
- Frozen Ground Beef Hamburger Patties
- 1 – 2 Cans Hunt’s Manwich Sloppy Joe Sauce (Use any of the 3 yummy flavors!)
- 2 Cups Cheddar Cheese (you could use any kind)
- 1 Can of Large Buttermilk Biscuits
Directions:
Spray your baking dish with cooking spray…I’m all about easy cleanup! Place your Frozen Hamburger Patties in a Casserole Dish (any size, depending on how many Patties you use)
Then pour 1 to 2 cans of Hunt’s Manwich Sloppy Joe Sauce over your Frozen Burgers. If you run out of Sloppy Joe Sauce you can add some plain tomato sauce.
You can use a Homemade Sloppy Joes Recipe for this Hamburger Patty Casserole!
Just make sure that you make at least 2-4 cups of your favorite Sloppy Joe mixture though. That way this casserole recipe will be nice and saucey.
If you are feeling super creative you can add a small amount of brown sugar (no more than 1/4 cup) and a little bit of green bell peppers. We’ve added both many times and it’s delish…but unnecessary for this recipe.
Cover your casserole dish with aluminum foil and cook at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
While frozen hamburgers are cooking, cut up biscuits into fourths. You’ll be adding these to the top of your burgers as seen in the picture above.
After cooking at 400 degrees for 20 minutes remove your baking dish from the oven. Then carefully remove the foil (be careful of steam). Add 1/2 of your cheese on top of the burgers then add biscuits then add the other half of the cheese.

Now cook an additional 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
Very Important Baking Tip!
Be sure and check your Biscuits to see that they aren’t getting too dark in the last 15 to 20 minutes. If they seem to be getting darker than you would like, simply put foil over the top. Don’t stop the baking process as the hamburgers need this additional time to finish cooking.
That’s it! Not only does this Easy Sloppy Joe Casserole Recipe have only 4 simple ingredients, but it’s also ready in 35 – 40 minutes! This is one of those easy recipes you’ll want to make again and again. Maybe even switching it up!

The burgers really need to be cut up, otherwise you end up searching for meat and lots of sauce. The biscuits weren’t cooked all the way so I had to add an additional 15 minutes.
Could you do this recipe with already cooked dinner rolls?
Thanks!
Hi Hannah! Sure, I think you could do this with already cooked rolls. I would only put them on at the very end of your cooking time, like last 5-8 minutes and watch carefully so they don’t burn. 🙂 You could put foil over them to make sure they don’t burn.
Love this, but when I tried it, the meat was totally raw and the biscuits only cooked on top.
Hi Paige,
I am so sorry to hear about this! Hmm I’m wondering if you had the temp right? Also sometimes oven temps vary..or was the oven pre heated first? Sometimes if it looks like my biscuits are going to be done before cooking time, I will put foil over the top so they don’t burn or cook to fast. I’m not sure of any other reason. Many have enjoyed this easy meal 🙁 If you try it again I would love to know what you may have done different. I soo appreciate you communicating this to me. Have a blessed week!
This looks great. I was wondering how to use some frozen hamburger patties in my freezer. I didn’t have any Sloppy Joe Sauce so I used regular Pasta Sauce and added brown sugar, garlic, Worcestershire Sauce and tomato paste. Really good!!
On another subject: I fully understand the need to have advertising on your website. It’s how you finance having a website and make some money – hopefully. I DO look at the ads because there are a lot of “goodies” there that I might not have thought about. However, I draw the line at pop-ups that suddenly appear while I am reading and block me from seeing anything at all. It breaks my concentration and is very frustrating. I feel that it is as rude as interrupting someone who is talking. I usually don’t come back to sites that repeatedly get in my face.
Just some “food” for thought. You can take it or leave it – – – and so can I.
What a great casserole and I can’t wait to try it! Happy St. Patrick’s Day and thanks so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday!
