NOTES: 

 

  • Jalapeño Pepper Jack Sausage Balls can be prepared in advance and frozen or chilled. When ready to serve, warm in a 350°F oven for approximately five minutes after thawing if frozen.
  • These taste great either made with canned chopped green chiles or chopped pickled jalapeño, but we really enjoy them most with the pickled jalapeño.
  • The addition of jalapeño makes them somewhat spicier—just the way we like it.

FAQ’s And Questions 

How to Make Jalapeno Pepper Jack Sausage Balls:
  • Making Jalapeño Pepper Jack sausage Balls is not that difficult. While rolling them into balls can be a little laborious, it’s not hard at all.
  • To make a batch, begin by combining all the ingredients into a dough. The sausage is added raw, exactly as it is. — In the oven, it cooks while the sausage balls bake.
  • Next, roll the dough into tiny, one-inch balls. For this stage, I use a tiny 1-tablespoon cookie scoop. With the cookie scoop, the sausage mixture only needs a very small amount of manual shaping after it is scooped, almost already shaped into a ball.

  • Additionally, the sausage balls are all roughly the same size thanks to the cookie scoop.
  • Put the dough balls on a baking sheet covered with foil. They can be crammed together quite closely, with just enough room for them to puff up a little after baking.

 

  • It will take around 20 minutes to cook the sausage balls through and lightly brown when you place the skillet in the oven.
  • The baked bites can be eaten right away or frozen and then reheated at a later time. Either way, they’re excellent!

  • Baking mix Bisquick: Bisquick acts as a binder in the dough. In place of the cheddar cheese in the traditional sausage ball recipe, add some heat with pepper jack cheese!

 

  • The recipe’s fiery jalapeño component: is pickled jalapeño. In this use, pickled jalapeños are a superior source of heat than fresh ones. If preferred, you can use a can of chopped green chiles in its place. — We enjoy them even more when they’re a little hotter with the pickled jalapeño.
