Tasty Tailgate: Barlow’s Foods’ Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
No football tailgate is truly complete without a tasty dish to complement the gathering. Luckily for you, top Dawgs in the food and beverage industry have put together some recipes to enhance your tailgating experience.
Today’s recipe comes from 2023 Flavor of Georgia grand prize winner, Barlow’s Foods. Founder and CEO Tiffani Neal owns Barlow’s Foods, a beloved packaged foods company based in Atlanta, Georgia. Tiffani’s passion for food has been a lifelong journey since she was a child.
Barlow’s Foods, named in honor of Tiffani’s grandfather, Arthur “Barlow” Harris, is well known for its versatile 3-in-1 pancake, biscuit, and waffle mix. Additionally, their seasonal breakfast offerings include their award-winning Peach Cobbler Syrup, which pairs perfectly with their Southern Buttermilk Biscuits.
Ingredients
1 bag / 3 cups Barlow’s Original Pancake Mix
1 1/4 cup buttermilk
3/4 cups butter, cubed and chilled
1/4 cup egg wash (optional)
1/4 melted butter
Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Set oven to 450 degrees and place your mixing bowl in the freezer approximately 10-15 minutes prior to using. Do not freeze butter but make sure that it keeps a very cold temperature.
- Cube butter, cut into small squares. Once the mixing bowl is nice and cold, pour the Barlow’s Original Pancake Mix into the bowl.
- Put butter into the bowl and combine flour and butter with your fingers. The goal is to combine without melting – you still want to see pieces of butter.
- Pour buttermilk into the bowl and mix until a sticky dough forms.
- Scoop dough onto a floured surface or parchment paper and fold over 3 times.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough to about 1″ flat and cut out circles to the size of your choice. 2 1/2″ is a great size.
- Lay rounds on a non-stick pan or parchment and place in the freezer about 10-15 minutes.
- (optional) Brush top of biscuits with egg wash.
- Pop into the oven for about 15 minutes or until high and golden brown.
- Remove from oven and brush with melted butter, sprinkle with salt and enjoy!
Tips
When making biscuits, you want to keep everything as cold as possible for as long as possible.
