Preheat the oven to 350F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large stove top pan over medium-high heat, brown the ground meat until cooked through.
1 pound ground meat (beef, turkey, venison, or bison)
Add the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper to the browned meat and stir until combined. Set aside.
1/2 cup ketchup, 1 Tablespoon yellow mustard, 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Roll out the crescent roll dough on a piece of parchment or wax paper.
2 (8 ounces each) Crescent roll dough sheets
Top the dough with half the sloppy joe mixture. Evenly spread 1/2 cup shredded cheese on the meat.
1 cup shredded cheese
Roll up the dough and meat mixture lengthwise using the parchment paper to help, if needed. Cut the "log" of dough into 10 sections (about 1 1/2 inch “cups/pinwheels"). Repeat for the remaining meat mixture and dough.
Place each cup/pinwheel on the prepared baking sheets 2 inches apart. Bake for 22 minutes or until the dough of each cup/pinwheel is golden brown. Allow each pinwheel to cool for 15 minutes before eating.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Prep Tips - If the crescent roll dough breaks, gently press it back together before topping with the meat mixture.

This recipe makes 20 cups/pinwheels for a total of 5 cups/pinwheels per person.
