Storage and Reheating Tips
If you have leftovers (though they might not last long!), these sausage balls store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheating them is a breeze; simply pop them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through. This method helps retain their crispy exterior and soft, cheesy interior.
You can also freeze these sausage balls for longer storage. After baking, allow them to cool completely, then place them in a freezer-safe container or bag. They can be frozen for up to three months. When you're ready to enjoy them again, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat as mentioned above. This makes them a convenient option for busy days or unexpected guests.
