All the negative comments made me want to try this for myself :
I followed the recipe exactly.
Yes it is crumbly but if your ingredients are room temp and you can crumble up the everything with a little patience.Then when you start forming balls it hangs together very well.
Took this dish to a New Year's Eve party - guests ate it all up with smiles and asked for the recipe.
Watch the video - it will give you confidence.

Add 1 cup of whole milk. Mixture is very thick and needs thorough mixing, either in a food processor or by hand. The added milk keeps these from being too 'doughy" and dry. Also, added some rosemary and parsley, and hot sausage. My family loves these!

I've made this twice, the first time by following the recipe and then modifying it the second time. The sausage balls were too dry because of the Bisquick so I made sure to cut back on it by a cup with the second try. This didn't help too much either. After cooking just a few balls, I added 1/2 lb of sausage to the batch and still no improvement. They were okay, but will try another recipe next time.

I modified this slightly by using only 2 cups of Bisquick and added minced onions, garlic powder, a little poultry seasoning, and about 1/4 cup milk. I also mixed this using the dough hook on my mixer. I used this at my New Year's Eve party and it was a hit!

I should have listened to the reviews and skipped this recipe. Even with the tweaking suggested by other reviewers the end result was pretty bad. Sorry Paula, usually love your recipes but this one is definitely not a keeper.

I don't understand people who give a 5-star review when they admit that the recipe needs major tweeking. I saw an average of 4 stars and assumed that the recipe was fine, as written. (We all know what happens when one assumes, don't we? Like so many others, my final product was a dry mess. Tasty, but dry dry dry. I won't be making this again.

I made them as the recipe stated. They were not fully cooked, raw meat. I would suggest cooking meat first and using eggs for binding.

Five stars but the proportions are a little off in this recipe - use 1 pound bulk sausage - Jimmy Dean Original, 2c Bisquick and 2c sharp cheddar. Mix together well - try your Kitchen Aid with the dough hook attachment. Line a 1/2 sheet pan with foil. Roll the sausage mixture into 1-inch balls and place on baking sheet, evenly spaced - yield should be about 80. Bake at 350 for 20-24 minutes - try broiling the last 2 to 3 minutes to bump up the flavor! These are always a huge hit...

These are really delicious, artery-clogging but delicious! :-I did take heed of several of the reviews and made some adjustments. I sautéed one small onion and 3 closves of garlic in a little butter. I used Jimmy Dean Hot sausage for a little punch. I cut the Bisquick to 2 cups and because the mixture still seemed dry, I also added about 1/3 c. of whole milk. For cheese I used 3 c sharp cheddar and 1 c mozzarella. In addition, I added about 1 tsp thyme. I baked them on parchment paper for about 19 minutes, turning once. They came out very moist and really delicious!
