Step up your sausage ball game with these jalapeno cheddar sausage balls. Only three ingredients including Red Lobster biscuit mix to really mix things up.
Take a mixing bowl and take a sausage link and cut it down the middle of the casing and peel the casing away from the sausage and add the sausage to the bowl
Repeat the above step with all the sausage
Take the Red Lobster biscuit mix and add it to the bowl along with the seasoning it came with
Next add the shredded cheese to the bowl
Use your hands or a stand mixer and mix all the ingredients together really well
Take a large cookie sheet or 2 baking pans and spray with cooking spray
Take some of the mixer and roll into a ball to create 1 inch balls and set on the baking pan and repeat until all the mixture is rolled allowing the balls to be spaced out some
Put in the oven for 20-25 minutes
Let cool on a plate that has some paper towels on it to soak up some of the grease

Notes
Set the sausage out of the refrigerator 30 minutes to an hour before mixing together. Makes it easier to mix
Use fresh grated cheese. I've noticed using pre shredded cheese can make the sausage balls go flat when cooking. Something to do with the preservatives used in the cheese
You can also use a stand mixer to mix all the ingredients together. I usually use my stand mixer
You can use a cookie scoop to make even sized sausage balls
In order to fit all the sausage balls on one pan I use a huge cooking sheet. Other wise you will have to use 2 pans
After cooking lay some paper towels down on a plate to let some of the grease soak up after placing the sausage balls on top
