Ingredients

Scale

  1. For the Biscuit Dough:

    • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tbsp baking powder
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 tbsp sugar
    • 1 ¾ cups buttermilk (or whole milk with 1 tbsp vinegar)
    • ½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted

    For the Beef & Cheese Filling:

    • ½ lb ground beef
    • ½ tsp salt
    • ½ tsp black pepper
    • ½ tsp garlic powder
    • ½ tsp onion powder
    • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
    • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or Colby Jack)

    For Topping (Optional):

    1. 2 tbsp melted butter
    2. ½ tsp garlic powder
    3. ½ tsp dried parsley

Instructions

  • Cook the Beef:
    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Drain excess grease and set aside.

  • Prepare the Biscuit Dough:
    Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir in buttermilk until just combined (don’t overmix).

  • Assemble the Biscuits:
    Pour the melted butter into an 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking dish. Spread half of the biscuit dough evenly over the butter. Sprinkle the cooked ground beef and shredded cheese over the dough. Spread the remaining biscuit dough on top, covering the beef and cheese as much as possible.

  • Bake:
    Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the biscuits are fully cooked through.

  • Add Garlic Butter (Optional):
    Mix melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley. Brush over the warm biscuits for extra flavor!

  • Serve & Enjoy!
    Let cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Beef and Cheese Butter Swim Biscuits!

Notes

  • Feel free to add crumbled bacon, jalapeños, or pepper jack cheese for extra flavor!
  • For a crispy, golden edge, you can add more melted butter on top before serving.
