I read this hearing your voice. 😃

Sounds and looks like a great biscuit recipe. There's a local whiskey distillery here (Savage & Cook) that has the best biscuit I have tasted in my whole life. I sat there doing the same as you. The waitress gave me the recipe but it's huge. Like 9 pounds of flour at a time huge. And a "scoop" size unknown. I'll just go buy them again. lol 😂

There are some apps out there where you could enter that recipe and they’ll do the math for you to reduce the serving size. I use AnyList but I know there are others!

I’m excited to make these this morning! Question though…what size mason jar? Regular mouth? Wide mouth? I think it’ll make a difference in bake time. Thanks!!!!

Love this story!

Amazing! My family has been oohing and aahing over my biscuits for years and this is basically the recipe! Favorite trick of mine is to grate the butter and stick it in the freezer on a plate for a bit, while I'm gathering ingredients and heating the oven and my pizza stone. That super cold butter makes the best layers.

Not me trying to figure out where this restaurant is so when I go home to Tifton I can scoot down the road to go eat there! Heck fire! I have got to make these now!!

Nothing better in the world than watching my man eat something I have cooked for him. Well maybe not the best thing 😉😉😉

Have you ever considered writing steamy romance novels? If you haven’t, you should.

This was excellent writing. I was transformed to that diner and could practically taste the biscuits. I felt squishing that dough with my hands. Great job, Lilyloutay!

Please continue. ❤️

The secret to the top... brush with milk before you bake them!

You should write a book with you as the main character!! Reading this really took me back to summers with my Granny and her biscuits. The end left me wanting more! Love you!

It's always the little cafes, diners or country store kitchens that have the best, home cooking and baked goodies. Somebodies mama, maw maw or nanny is behind the history of the business, and a lot of times the men play a huge part too. I cannot wait for your cook book. I know I'm getting at least 2 of them. We love you & James in the Heart of Dixie
