Heat oven to 400°F.

Pour off drippings. Stir in barbecue sauce and salt. Simmer, uncovered, 2-3 minutes stir occasionally.

Meanwhile place 1 biscuit into each of 10 ungreased standard-sized muffin cups press dough firmly onto bottoms and up sides of cups. Spoon approximately 1/4-cup beef mixture into each biscuit cup.
