How to Make Southern Style Cheeseburger Pie
Prepare the beef filling
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with diced onion and garlic until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat, then stir in Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
Layer in the baking dish
Spread the beef mixture evenly in a greased 9-inch pie dish. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese generously over the top.
Make the crust batter
In a medium bowl, whisk together Bisquick (or self-rising flour mix), milk, and eggs until smooth. The batter will be pourable—perfect for creating a light crust that bakes right into the pie.
Pour and bake
Pour the batter over the beef and cheese, making sure it covers the top evenly. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Serving Tips
Southern Style Cheeseburger Pie pairs beautifully with fresh sides like coleslaw, sliced tomatoes, or collard greens. For a true diner-style experience, serve with pickle slices and a drizzle of ketchup or spicy mayo on top.
