fucking PERFECT red lobster cheddar biscuits. i mean that.

I did it. I figured out the secret to making red lobsters' cheddar biscuits. most people think the secret everyone leaves out is old bay seasoning (yeah, its necessary), but not a single recipe i've looked at for them in the past ten years mentioned this one little detail, the TRUE key ingredient. BUTTERMILK instead of regular. HAHAHAHAHA! I win. I fucking win. Now you all can revel in the same glory I did when I tasted my victoriuous results.

The Ingredients:

Biscuits
- 2 cups flour

- 2 tsp baking powder'

- 1/2 tsp salt

- 1 tsp seasoned salt

- 1 tsp old bay seasoning

- 1 tsp garlic powder

- 1/3 cup COLD butter cut into small chunks

- 2 tbsp vegetable oil

- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

- 1/2 plus 1/3 cup buttermilk (divided)


Garlic butter sauce

- 3 tbsp butter

- 1/2 tsp garlic

- 1/2 tsp dried parsley


The Rundown:
- preheat oven to 400

- mix flour, garlic, old bay, salt, seasoned salt

- drop in cold butter chunks, mix in by hand

- add cheese and vegetable oil, mix by hand

- pour in first 1/2 cup of buttermilk, stir

- slowly add other 1/3 cup until dough is... well... doughy. so its a little sticky
but not TOO messy

- drop lemon sized amounts of dough onto ungreased cookie sheet (should make 12)

- bake 16-17 min

- in small saucepan, melt butter, garlic and parsley, spoon over biscuits as soon as you take them out of the oven

- serve those bitches warm!
