Ingredients

Scale

Meat Mixture

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 pound 90% lean ground beef
1 sweet onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Cheese and Batter

1 cup freshly shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
½ cup Bisquick baking mix
2 large eggs

For Serving

Ketchup
Mustard
Shredded lettuce
Diced tomatoes

Instructions

Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan to prevent sticking and set it aside.
Cook the Meat Mixture: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook while stirring and breaking up the beef, until the onion is translucent and the meat is thoroughly browned.
Season the Meat: Stir in the ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cook the mixture for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Assemble Meat and Cheese: Transfer the cooked meat mixture into the prepared pie pan. Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the meat.
Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, Bisquick baking mix, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
Pour Batter over Meat: Slowly and evenly pour the batter mixture over the meat and cheese in the pie pan, ensuring it covers the filling evenly.
Bake the Pie: Place the pie pan on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set.
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite burger toppings such as ketchup, mustard, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes.

Notes

Use 90% lean ground beef for less fat but good flavor.
Bisquick baking mix acts as a quick and easy crust/batter—do not substitute with regular flour without adjusting liquid.
Be careful not to overbake; the pie should be golden but still moist inside.
For extra cheesiness, sprinkle additional cheddar on top halfway through baking.
Customize the toppings to your liking—pickles, onions, or jalapeños make great add-ons.
