House Barbecue Biscuits With Cranberry-Jalapeno Jam
makes 4 dozen
Game Changer
Any of your favorite jam flavors may be substituted for equally tasty results.
4 3/4 cups soft-wheat flour
2 Tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 cup cold butter, cut into small cubes
1 1/3 cups plus 1 Tbsp whole milk
Melted butter
Party Pimiento Cheese
1 1/2 lbs warm shredded & chopped Sweet Chili-Lime Smoked Pork Shoulder
Cranberry-Jalapeno Jam
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Whisk together the flour, the baking powder & the salt in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender until it resembles the size of small peas. Blend the milk into the flour mixture just until a sticky dough comes together.
Turn the dough out onto a heavily floured surface & knead 2 to 3 times. Pat the dough to 1/2-inch thickness & portion with a 2-inch round cutter. Place on a lightly greased half sheet pan with the edges just touching. Reroll the dough & repeat. The pan will be full. Brush the remaining 1 Tbsp milk over the dough tops. Place in the oven & reduce the temperature to 400 degrees. Bake on the middle oven rack 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Brush with melted butter. Cool 30 minutes.
Split the biscuits & spread a generous portion of Party Pimiento Cheese on the bottom halves; top with warm Sweet Chili-Lime Smoked Pork Shoulder & Cranberry-Jalapeno Jam. Add the biscuit tops & serve.
The Extra Point
An old-fashioned breakfast of bacon, eggs & grits upgrades instantly with a few of these southern favorites on the plate. Split the biscuits & spread with blackberry preserves or drizzle with sorghum.

How To Make Entertaining Biscuits
Southerners have long been known for offering biscuits to guests when grand or small gatherings are in order. They can either bridge a lavish meal of beef tenderloin & holiday cocktail nibbles or accompany classic brunch favorites when spring celebrations are planned. Tailgating & football socials make them a natural fit for menus as they can accompany main dishes or be filled with a variety of mainstays.
The Technique
Prepare the biscuit dough & cut as directed. Place them onto a lightly greased half sheet pan. Freeze 4 hours. Place the frozen pieces of biscuit dough into a zip top freezer bag. Store in the freezer up to one month. To bake, place the biscuits 1/2-inch apart on a lightly greased half sheet pan. Bake according to recipe instructions adding a few additional minutes, if necessary.
