Storage and Reheating Tips
If you have any leftover sausage balls, you're in luck! They store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Simply reheat them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through. This ensures that they retain their crispy exterior while remaining moist inside.
For longer storage, consider freezing the uncooked sausage balls. You can prepare them ahead of time, freeze them on a baking sheet, and then transfer them to a freezer bag. When you're ready to enjoy them, just bake them from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time. This makes it easy to have a delicious snack or appetizer ready at a moment's notice!
