Whenever I visit a barbecue restaurant, I'm always happy when I see buttermilk biscuits served on the side. Then the smile leaves me...because I'm shoving said biscuits into my expanding hamster cheeks.
It's the best idea ever and just one more reason why I'm in love with Southern food. I need a road trip!
I know I might upset some biscuit experts by adding the blueberries and rosemary but trust me on this. Plain biscuits are awesome but for me they really need something mixed through the dough, maybe some sweet apple butter, a hefty dollop of ricotta with honey or some grated extra sharp cheddar.
Like everything in life, there's rules and biscuits are no exception.
- Work them gently.
- Keep the butter cold.
- Pat them flat with your hand (not too thin though).
- Keep them close together on the tray (keeps your biscuits soft).
If you can keep to these biscuit commandments, you'll have light and flaky biscuits ready to fill with ridiculous things like fried chicken, meatballs and marinara or egg with avocado and cheese...yup amazing!
Biscuits are ultra easy to make so next time you have a barbecue, mix up a batch and tell you're friends it's a no-buns party!
