Cheddar Bay Biscuits (Red Lobster Style)

These are so good, you’ll slap your mother and ask yourself why in the hell you wasted so much time at Red Lobster when you could have been making these delicious cheesy morsels at home! I am so serious. That is not a joke.
Anyway, just about everyone I know who isn’t a Red Lobster’Nazi is obsessed with their delicious Cheddar Bay Biscuits. People order extras just to bring them home and savor the flavor a day later. I’m know I’m guilty of that right there…
I mean, they’re the kinda biscuit that after sitting down at your table at Red Lobster, you get a little perturbed if your waiter hasn’t stopped by to take your drink order because that’s usually when they bring the biscuits….with your drinks. Unless you get one of those “in the know” waiters who bring those babies immediately. But you’re usually just sittin there, toe tappin’, thumb-twiddling, gazing across the room looking for your waiter with your basket of Cheddar Bay biscuits wrapped so adorably in their white napkin to preserve heat. Awww yeah! Here she comes. Must calm down. She sets the basket down, and you immediately unwrap the one item that would bring tears to a unicorn. You reach for the one in the middle because you know it’s the warmest…and you take that desperate first bite and feel your tongue pop’lockin and hittin it’s dougie. Finally. Relief. You’re happy as hell you finally got your Cheddar Bay biscuit. All is right with the world.
What if I told you that you could have that same satisfaction at home?
Yes, you can…and best of all, it doesn’t come with batteries.
This recipe can be switched up so that you’re able to use any cheese you’d like. Try gruyere, fontina, gouda, pepperjack, or parmesan instead of cheddar, for example. Yum.

CHEDDAR BISCUITS (RED LOBSTER STYLE)
 

 
PREP TIME
COOK TIME
TOTAL TIME
 
inspired by Red Lobster
Serves: 10-12 biscuits
INGREDIENTS
  • 2 cups Bisquick mix
  • 3 tbsp cold butter, cubed or grated
  • 1½ cups cheddar cheese, finely shredded
  • ⅔ cup cold milk
  • 1 pinch garlic salt
  • 1 tsp granulated garlic (or garlic powder)
Garlic Herb Butter to brush on top:
  • 4 tbsp butter (salted)
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ¼ tsp dried oregano
  • ¼ tsp granulated garlic (or garlic powder)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
For the Garlic Herb Butter
  1. In a microwave safe bowl, melt the 4tbsp of butter and mix in the dried parsley, dried oregano, and granulated (or garlic powder). Mix well and set aside.
For the biscuits
  1. Spray cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray, or use a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the bisquick, butter, garlic salt, granulated garlic (or garlic powder) together. Add the cheese and toss with the dry mixture to coat. Add the milk and mix with a large spoon or your hands. The dough will be somewhat sticky, which is perfect for that "drop biscuit" appearance.
  3. Spoon the biscuits onto your cookie sheet about 3 inches apart.
  4. Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes, then remove from oven and brush them with the garlic herb butter.
  5. Put them back in the oven for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
  7. Try not to slap your mother.

Homemade Beef Taco's

So I'm from Buffalo, and as the world know we had a snow storm that shut the city down for a week and a half. The only thing that kept me from getting cabin was these that i made. No  amount of snow was gonna stop me from making it happened. You already know how I feel about tacos. They’re my little pieces of heaven in a cruel and cold dog-eat-dog world. Tacos…are everything. These tacos are completely homemade. No kits. No seasoning packets. No boxed taco shells — which I’d still eat, but only in a pinch. There’s nothing better than frying your own corn tortillas for a taco, and this method I learned makes life so much easier. It takes just a few minutes to fry up the taco shells, and the crunch they provide is out of this world. These tacos are perfect — no orange grease running down your arm, perfectly seasoned, just hands down delicious. Once you make these, you won’t bother with the box kits…nothing beats the taste of homemade. Plus, you’ll feel so special knowing that ...

Pineapple Salsa

Yea…I do realize that it’s no longer summer, but when I have a craving for something…then I have to have it. I wanted a fresh, cool, sweet yet spicy burst of summer despite it being “ugg season”… This is delicious. It’s a very basic fruit salsa recipe that you can alter to make your own. You can add additional fruits if you want, different peppers, beans — anything you want. Make sure you use a red onion though, don’t use any other kind because it won’t taste right. Fruit salsas are excellent over savory meats such as chicken or steak, but they’re even better on seafood. This baby here provides you with freshness, brightness, sweetness and heat. I used 2 very tiny Serrano peppers for this recipe, and I left some of the seeds from one in and removed the rest. I wanted a balanced heat, one that would compliment the natural sweetness of the fruit. I didn’t see any whole pineapple’s at Whole Foods today, but they did have these cup size “to go” packets of fresh pineapple an...

Salmon BLT With Cornmeal Onion Rings

I love seafood. I could legit live off seafood..... well actually, throw in some turf beef  and maybe that’ll be a reality. I love my cow, but we’ll get into that later. Anyway, yea…seafood is my boo. I also love sandwiches. Big and small, wide and tall, I love’em all. Almost anything between two slices of bread is probably gonna put you two steps closer to God, but this sandwich might get you there a little faster. I cried a salty tear of bliss as I ate this sandwich in the fetal position of my living room. Don’t judge me. This delicious sandwich starts with a slice of toasted perfection, basted with a garlic infused herb oil, then followed by a thin layer of spicy lemon-caper mayo, arugula, bacon, juicy tender salmon, sweet roma tomato slices, crispy onion rings, another thin layer of spicy lemon-caper mayo, and the final slice of toasted bliss. Add that all up and you have sex on a plate. But the only protection you’ll need is a bib. If you’re absolutely not about that sal...
