Taste a Restaurants Recipe
You’ll Have to Agree...
It's Homemade !


This restaurant Biscuit Recipe creates a light, tender, mouth-watering bread for any time and any meal!


homemade buttermilk biscuits

This is not bragging. It’s reporting! Restaurant customers (I call them guests) think their grandmothers are working for me! :-)

Actually, this recipe was one of my grandmother’s originally. I tried it when I opened the restaurant for breakfast and have used it ever since.

    Split these and ladle my hot sausage gravy over them! This is really goooood!

    Some of my restaurant customers (guests) order two of these with jam or honey in the morning with a cup of coffee or tea. It serves as their breakfast. But these are so good, you can enjoy them at lunch or dinner or as a snack. I do!

    You might consider serving these with a hot bowl of soup or delicious beef stew.

    This bread item, especially when served with certain other items, is truly a comfort food.

    Where, besides my grandmother, do I find "recipes that work" with the restaurant guests?
