As you might've predicted, it's time for another Tempting Tuesday!
This week's recipe comes from one of my favorite human beings ever, my cousin, Jodi! The girl is famous for this dish, and it's requested often! It was passed down to her from her Grandma Judy, a rancher's wife with experience in cooking for a crowd. It's real live ranch hand food, so whip up a batch of these temptin' vittles and pretend yer down on P-Dubb's ranch brandin' cattle and ridin' the range! Yeehaw!
Too schmaltzy? Sorry...it really is good!

(serves 8-10 city slickers or 1-3 cowboys)
Ingredients
- 1 box : Hot Roll Mix
- 2 lbs. : Ground Beef, browned & drained
- 1 pkg. : Dry Spaghetti Seasoning Mix
- 1 can (8 oz.) : Tomato Sauce
- 1 pkg. (2 c.) : Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1 c. : Water
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Grease a 9x13 casserole dish and set aside.
- Prepare the Hot Roll Mix according to the instructions on the box.
- Combine browned hamburger, spaghetti mix, tomato sauce, and water in a skillet.
- Split the dough from the Hot Roll Mix in half, one for the top layer, one for the bottom.
- Press half of the roll dough into the greased 9x13 pan until it evenly covers bottom of the pan.Pour hamburger mixture over the bottom layer of dough.
- Top hamburger mixture with shredded cheese.
- Roll remaining dough into rectangle large enough to mostly cover hamburger and cheese mixture.
- Carefully place top crust on mixture.
- Bake according to instructions on Hot Roll Mix (approx. 20-30 minutes) or until golden.
Helpful Hints
- On occasion I have had trouble finding "Hot Roll Mix." In a pinch, I've substituted Jiffy Pizza Crust Mix and it was just as good!
- We've tried this with mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar and it's still yummy! Gives it more of a pizza-y flavor!
- The bottom crust soaks up the juice from the hamburger mixture, so it is sometimes a little soft when you serve it...don't be worried if it happens to you...it's done!
- This refrigerates and reheats really well, so it's great for leftovers!
Hope you all love this one as much as we do! It's not uncommon for us to request Jodi brings this to Christmas dinner. What a spread...turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, and Spoon Burgers! MmmMmm!
Enjoy!

And you know that you always have a million friends who are willing to taste test for you!
This sounds like something that everyone in my family would eat....therefore it goes on my to-try-soon list! Thanks!
