Ingredients

1 pound ground pork sausage at room temperature
2 cups biscuit baking mix
12 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Combine room temperature sausage, biscuit mix, and shredded Cheddar together in a large bowl; mix with your hands until well combined.
Roll mixture into about 30 walnut-sized balls; transfer to a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and sausage is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.

Notes

Try other cheeses for different flavor variations. Pepper Jack cheese is great for parties. You can shape the balls, refrigerate up to 24 hours, then bake, or freeze unbaked sausage balls and bake straight from frozen (increase bake time by 5 minutes).
