Sometimes you have to eat biscuits.
Cheddar Bacon Buttermilk Biscuits to be exact. It needs to happen. I’ve had plenty of green smoothies this past week – so now it’s time to be a little decadent.
A few weeks back we went to dinner with some friends at MB Post. It’s this new-ish restaurant down in Manhattan Beach and I’m clinically hooked on it. The food there is like drugs. Well I actually have no idea what drugs are like, but if I were to guess, I’d guess that their food is equally as addictive. The menu is constantly changing so I never know quite what to expect when I’m there. However, one thing that is ALWAYS on the menu, is the Cheddar Bacon Buttermilk Biscuit. And man, is it good.
I’ve now had these a total of 3 times. And they basically blow my mind each time. They are laced with little bits of bacon, plenty of cheddar cheese, and then you dip them in the most unbelievable MAPLE BUTTER of all times.
I tried to make you maple butter for this post but it was an epic failure. The biscuits on the other hand were an epic win. I’m relying on the ever brilliant Adam Pearson to make the maple butter because he can basically make anything. I’ll bring the biscuits Adam. It will be a party.
One more thing before we get down to business. Want to take your biscuit making to a whole new level. Let me introduce you to a little thing called a grater. Why on earth would you need a grater to make biscuits you ask? Because we are going to GRATE the butter into the biscuits so that each and every bite of the biscuits is filled with buttery goodness that is going to make your mouth water. You can thank me later ![]()

Oh, this sounds so good. I’m glad you like MB Post because that’s real food in my hometown! Aside from tacos and a few comfort food diners, good food was few and far between growing up. Oh, and as for that maple butter, add in some pureed chipotles for some awesomeness!
These seriously sound terrific! Now if only you could come over and make them for me since I am a terrible baker
The grated butter trick is genius! Love these biscuits!
