How To Make texas style manicotti

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 350*. Spray a 9x13 pan with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a skillet, brown ground beef, onion, and garlic until there is no pink left in the beef. Drain, and place in bowl.
Step 3

While ground beef is browning, prepare the manicotti shells by boiling them in salted water until tender, but firm. DO NOT OVER COOK. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Step 4

Add 3/4 cup BBQ sauce and 1 cup cheese to the beef mixture, and blend well.
Step 5

Stuff manicotti shells with the beef/cheese mixture, trying not to split the shells. Be sure that the shells get full.
Step 6

Place in prepared baking dish. Top shells with any left over beef mixture, spread remaining BBQ sauce over top of shells, and cover with 1 cup of cheese.
Step 7

Bake 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and just beginning to brown. Serve hot.
