Ingredients

✔️ 2 cups all-purpose flour – The biscuit base that holds all the magic
✔️ 1 tbsp baking powder – Fluffy lift, comin’ right up
✔️ 1 tsp salt – Gotta balance that cheesy richness
✔️ 1 tbsp sugar – Just a lil’ sweet to round it out
✔️ 1/2 cup shredded cheddar – Melty sharp goodness in every bite
✔️ 1/2 cup cooked ground beef – Savory, hearty, beefy love
✔️ 1 1/2 cups buttermilk – Tangy, tenderizing liquid gold
✔️ 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted – For that signature butter swim
✔️ Optional: chopped cooked bacon – Take it over the top, if you dare

How to Make It

1️⃣ Preheat oven to 450°F – We’re bringing the heat, honey
2️⃣ Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, sugar – Dry goods, mix ‘em up
3️⃣ Stir in cheese and beef (and bacon if using) – Savory surprises in every bite
4️⃣ Add buttermilk, mix gently – Dough will be thick, don’t overwork it
5️⃣ Pour melted butter into 8×8 baking dish – That’s your biscuit hot tub, baby
6️⃣ Drop spoonfuls of dough right into that buttery pool – It’s called “swim biscuits” for a reason
7️⃣ Bake 20–25 mins until tops are golden – Crispy edges, fluffy centers
8️⃣ Cool slightly and serve warm – With extra butter if you’re wild like that
