Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

In a bowl, combine 3 cups of biscuit mix and 1 pound of ground sausage.

Use your hands to mix the biscuit mix and sausage together, ensuring the heat from your hands breaks down the sausage.

Add 4 cups of shredded white cheddar cheese to the mixture and continue to mix with your hands until well incorporated.

Pinch off pieces of the mixture and roll them into balls about the size of a small walnut.

Place the sausage balls on a prepared pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 18 minutes, checking after 10-12 minutes for doneness based on your oven.

While the sausage balls are baking, mix together mustard and mayonnaise in a container for dipping sauce.

Once the sausage balls are done, let them cool slightly before serving with the dipping sauce.
