John Wayne Casserole (Beef and Biscuit Casserole)Recipe

Honestly, I am not quite sure how this recipe got its name, but I think it’s because John Wayne loved casseroles too!

I know some people aren’t a huge fan of casseroles, but as a mom, I absolutely love them. It’s so nice to be able to throw something together and walk away and get more done while it’s cooking. 

Also, it doesn’t hurt that my kids eat this WITHOUT COMPLAINING! It is a hit in our house. I’ve even considered doubling the batch so I actually get to have some leftovers. That’s another reason casseroles are one of my favorite things to make, who doesn’t love leftovers?

How to make John Wayne casserole with Bisquick:

Begin by preheating the oven to 325 degrees and spraying down your 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. 

Skillet with ground beef and taco seasoning

Then, using your medium-sized pan, brown the ground beef and then add in the taco seasoning and ¾ cup of water to the pan and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until it begins to thicken up. 

Mixing bowl with sour cream , cheese and onions

Then, in your medium mixing bowl, stir together the sour cream, mayo, half of the cheese, and half of the onion and set it aside once it’s all combined. 

In another small mixing bowl, mix together the Bisquick biscuit mix and water to make the biscuit dough. Then, in the greased pan, press the dough into the bottom and about a ½ inch up the sides. 

Now, in another pan saute the other half of the onions and green peppers until they are just slightly tender. 

Then top the biscuits in this order:

  1. Cooked ground beef
  2. Diced tomatoes
  3. Sauteed green peppers and onions
  4. Can of green chilies
  5. Sour cream and cheese mixture
  6. Remaining cheese on top

    This post is suspect. How can you name it John Wayne and include "light" mayo? :) Just kidding. I'll give it a try when I feel adventurous. Go see an old John Wayne movie. He has some classics.

      Perhaps if The Duke has eaten more light foods he would still be alive. Or did he die from aids? I made it, served it, ate it and passed it along to all my friends - both of them. What a great recipe. John (The Duke) Wayne may have been the most prolific actor to ever hit Hollywood. He starred in movies with just about everybody who was anybody, including Rick(ie) Nelson in Rio Bravo. The first movie I saw him in was "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon". It was 1947 or 48 and cost 5 cents to see it in Republican City Nebraska. Popcorn was 2 cents as were Jujubees. What do they cost at the theatre today?

        John Wayne died from complications from years of smoking (lung cancer) like most of the old classic Hollywood be actors. They didn't know then what we know now. At least not till it was too late. Very little of his overall life was he over weight. He was just a big man.

          He, Susan Hayward along with the crew of filming of “Gengis Kahn”(?spelling) died from cancers. The filming site was in Nevada desert where early nuclear tests were done. At the time of filming took place no one knew of there was lingering danger. Wayne’s two older son’s, Mike and Patrick, that were at the filming site also battled cancer,

      I loved all John Wayne’s movies! Here in Texas we pretty much grew up with seeing him on the silver screen. I knew he smoked but I think a person can drive that weight and lite foods in the ground! My Grandma ate fried bologna (mainly because that’s all they could afford) fried chicken and used lard to fry everything. She lived to be well in her 90’s. Got my casserole in the oven now and can’t wait to try it with a side salad.

    Okay, I have become so addicted to your recipes!! I have just made this, just stuck it in the oven... and again tweaked for gluten free. I used the GF Bisquick. It does have more ingredients than regular Bisquick for biscuits, so I added those as well and will keep my fingers crossed!! So far all of my GF tweaks on your recipes have worked out so I am thinking this one will as well!!

      Hi Ruth, We have not made it the night before and cooked it the next day. But reading over it carefully I think it would work just fine. The dough goes on the bottom, so be sure that it comes up the side of the dish and is sealed well so that the other ingredients don't ooze down over the sides. That may cause it to be soggy dough. Let us know how it all turns out. It should work!! :)

    I almost never comment on pintrest recipes but felt that I had to add a note. We made this tonight and it was completely forgettable. Almost no flavor. The biscuit layer was bland. The meat was bland and all of the veggies should have been cooked before being added to any layer. To be clear. I added more taco seasoning and Sriracha to the meat and garlic to the pepper and onion mix and we still felt we could have take a pass. Better luck next time.

    I like the heartiness of this dish but I agree with Susan, this was very very bland. I added extra taco seasoning, seasoned salt and garlic to the ground beef, but my fiancé still said it had no flavor and had to add hot sauce to it. It may have more flavor if salsa was used in place of the tomatoes, or maybe even some Rotel. If I do make this again, major adjustments will be made.

    I liked it. I combined the peppers and onions with the ground beef when I put the taco seasoning in it. I put 2 packages of taco seasoning instead of one (1 packet per pound of ground beef is usual). I skipped the mayo and used 1 c sour cream. I used a can of diced tomatoes instead of fresh. Since several people are from outside of the country, here's a note on what Bisquick contains: Self rising flour consists of flour, salt, and baking powder. Bisquick contains all of these ingredients plus hydrogenated vegetable shortening. One cup of Bisquick can be substituted by a mixture of one cup of flour, 1½ teaspoons of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of oil or melted butter. And if you have self rising flour just add oil and you are good.

    Looking for a new casserole idea I came upon this recipe that sounded interesting. After reading the reviews I decided to make a few changes. I added a can of black beans drained I can of corn drained cooked the green peppers and onions with the meat once it was done in season that with adobo. Had about a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce to the meat mixture as well as additional half a packet of taco seasoning Mary had I also added a layer of sorrow and cream and onion mashed potatoes on top of the mayonnaise and sour cream mixture then top that with cheddar cheese cooked it and then broiled it at the end. Delicious! Reminded me of a Mexican style shepherds pie

    This would be good with a "pizza" slant, too. You could put some pizza sauce down before or after ground beef or mix it into the beef, and then trade out the peppers and stuff for olives, mushrooms and other things you like on your pizza.

    I could not find the amounts for this recipe so improvised. It better be good. When I finally scrolled down to make this comment, I found it. Way too much junk on this site to find the actual recipe!!!

    You stated you did not know where the name of the recipe came from. This is a quote from the "12 Tomatoes" website. John Wayne was asked to contribute a recipe for the cookbook, "Cooking with Love from Cara and Her Friends". Proceeds from the book were to benefit the American Cancer Society. The book was a compilation of recipes from celebrities and John Wayne submitted his favorite casserole. This recipe was released in the book in 1979, the same year that Wayne died from cancer.

    Also, this website gives a very tender story about the Cookbook. It was written and the recipes compiled by a 10 year old that wanted to do something to raise money for the American Cancer Society. John Wayne was only one of many celebrities that submitted a favorite recipe for Cara's book. https://deansfarmmarket.com/john-wayne-casserole-story/

    I made this for my husband and son, the loved it! I used the tubed pizza dough for the crust. It was faster and easier. I also used 2 cups of cheese. It's a keeper for sure.

    I want to try this recipe!! My question is can it be put together and refrigerated, then baked next morning? And would there be any change in the baking time?

      You can totally make this recipe the night before and bake the next day. The cook time may be just a bit longer where it has been sitting in the fridge all night. But cook until heated through and the edges are slightly browned.
