Sausage Balls

No wonder these classic savory Sausage Balls are a hit at all the fall functions and games. Who doesn’t love sausage and cheese?

These savory Sausage balls are generally served during the big game, but why stop there? You could serve these tasty hours d’ oeuvres anytime. They are stick to your ribs delicious and everyone just loves them.

The original recipe for these savory treats has been around since the 1960’s. There are now so many variations to choose from. You could change up the sausage or cheeses, anything goes. I like mild sausage but you could make it with the hot stuff. I also like to grate my own cheese. I like the texture of cheese I grate myself. You could add some herbs and spices too. You could also change up the cheese and see how you like it. either way take this recipe and make it your own.

The dipping sauce is fantastic if you have all the ingredients. Sometimes I just love to dip them in some good old barbecue sauce!

If you are wondering how to make these delectable treats here is how I did it.
