I had B&G at the Shack a couple of weekends ago and it was horrible. They even screwed up the hash browns.

Also, my lady made biscuits with cheddar cheese in them the other night and it was

Not a fat-ass fyi. This was a total coincidence that I had biscuits twice in a month.

i was initially repulsed and enraged by the square biscuits so i took a step back for a day.

tempers have cooled and i have had time to process my emotions.

Pretty rich food appearance criticism from you. Also, square biscuits are superior. Round biscuits lead to extra dough which must be reworked and cut into round 2 biscuits which are tougher and worse.

I use the deformed wad of balled together circle scraps to snak on prior to the main biscuit course

also good for taste testing to see if your biscuits are good enough without taste testing a fully formed biscuit

ill try square next time and see how i feel

i just imagine the corners being burned before the insides are cooked

I see. These are pretty small, ~2” x 2” so no burning problems. Could be if they were bigger though.

I used mine to make a salt crust for prime rib. Threw the sea salt, rosemary, etc. in that S.O.B. and let 'er rip. I had to sacrifice a load of coffee beans to clean it out, but it was worth it.

I would have sex with that. Nice work, 8man.

Hoo baby hot diggity dog look at those beegees

That looks 10/10, 8man. I love B and G.

Does anyone use syrup on their B and G? Mrs SSOC's dad likes to put butter and syrup on his biscuits before applying the gravy. It tastes pretty good but ventures a bit far into the realm of "Using Your Body as a Trashcan" for me.

8mp puts gravy on his biscuits like a responsible adult

Far too conservative there with the gravy. I need leftovers on the plate.

Agree with this. The gravy should be the star of the plate IMHO.

I could go for some B&G rn

You guys need to make better biscuits then.

Where's the hot sauce though?

Stupid Fitz · « **Reply #521 on:** February 01, 2021, 08:49:48 AM »

Haven't had B&G in years, but this thread reminded me of this tiny cafe where I grew up in whitetrashville. In HS we would skip first hour and go there for breakfast every one in a while. At the time it was the best B&G and best food on the planet. It was probably not great at all and I was just a stupid kid, but who knows.

Sandstone Outcropping · « **Reply #522 on:** March 13, 2021, 09:32:17 AM »

Nothing like homemade B&G and black coffee to reboot the brain after perhaps too many whiskey and sodas:

Hell yeah

BIG APPLE CAT · « **Reply #524 on:** March 13, 2021, 05:54:21 PM »

8mp and sandstone would just have this unspoken bond that they could trust one another to fix a plate of b&g for the other with 0% concern that the g to b ratio would be off kilter
