I made these for a recent party, bringing some trial samples over to my neighbor the day before and he walked in the door asking for them. They were tasty but difficult to remove from the baking sheet, even with greasing; the cheese and sausage sizzled and spread so much that a good portion of the balls were left attached to the foil I coated my baking sheets with. Still, they were easy to make and inexpensive, and probably preferred over the "ball" recipes I served at the party. I would try them again with low fat ingredients next time.

This is great! I've made this for years. While it is time consuming, I make a huge batch and freeze them. I also use sage and hot flavored sausaqe!

I agree with the user MAMA GRETCH in what she said about the entire process of baking the cheese balls and cleaning afterwards. Although mine came out crispy, this recipe wasn't that great. Edible but not what I would call delicious.

Tried making these for my husband. I wasn't impressed, but he said they were good. I found that they did need to cook a little longer (25 mins instead of 15 mins). I would also recommend cooking these on a rack instead of just on the cookie sheet as they are really greasy, but of course using sausage and cheddar cheese that's to be expected. I'm not sure if I'll make these again using this recipe or if I'll try and find another one.

At a party these will disappear fast, so make sure you get a few before they are gone! If you want the grease to drain away, cook them on a rack over a 13 x 9 or larger pan. Spray the rack with non-stick spray. When the sausage balls are done, use a fork to take them off the rack. I also add two eggs to the recipe so everything stays together better and improves the flavor as well.

My stepmom used to make these for special holidays....I could eat all of them myself!! I made the for the Super Bowl yesterday, they were a big hit! I did change the recipe just a little...I added a splash of milk and left out the celery. I will make these again!

I made this recipe using 1 lb. of the sausage, 3/4 cups of the baking mix, 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 tsp. garlic powder and about 1 tbs. of milk. Delicious & Moist.

This was a wonderful recipe. They were gone in a flash. Highly recommend!

This is a great and easy recipe for parties. The sausage balls were excellent.

Good, but next time I will leave out the celery and add about 1/4 cup of milk to make it easier to work with.

I MADE THIS FOR A PARTY AND THEY WERE GONE IN MINUTES.EVERYBODY LOVED THEM.I FOUND IT TO BE A QUICK&EASY RECIPE.

They were good and everyone enjoyed them, but they were a mess to make. There was so much grease! I was glad I lined my baking sheets with tin foil and was lucky they had sides or I would have been in for a disaster with grease everywhere. Good, but I think I will search for a better recipe next time.

Greasy, but oh so good!!

This recipe for sausage balls has made my holiday/party list. It is much easier to mix than other recipes I have tried, it freezes well and will be used again and again.

These were a big hit at my Christmas party. I substituted sweet italian sausage for the pork sausage, and offered a sweet mustard as a dip.

I thought it was very hard to blend the ingredients - dry flour, cheese and ground pork sausage require a LOT of manipulation!! I think it would be better to bake these in a Pyrex dish instead of a cookie sheet - they produce a lot of grease when they bake and I ended up with a very smoky oven when the grease overflowed my flat cookie sheets. The balls were very hard to remove with a spatula and I had to throw away the cookie sheets afterwards - too hard to clean, too much baked-on residue. As for the finished balls, I thought they tasted OK, a little tough/chewy, not crisy as I had imagined. My guests at them all up, so I guess it wasn't a total loss!

This was a wonderful buffet appetizer item. I used half Italian sasuage and it gave it a nice flavor.
