This one might be a problem. 😮‍💨

Baked sweet potato folded into the biscuit dough with cream and vanilla bean paste, baked until golden, butter-basted straight from the oven, then finished with warm praline loaded with butter, brown sugar, cream, and pecans.

The result: soft, buttery, sticky, nutty, and just disrespectful enough.

Sweet Potato Praline is coming to the next Soulfull Biscuit | Biscuits + Butter Saturday drop on October 3.

Lawd. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Crunch isn’t a flavor—but your brain treats it like part of the taste.

That crispy crust, toasted edge, crunchy topping or crackly bite adds sound, texture and contrast, which can completely change how satisfying food feels.

This is the kind of stuff I love talking about: not just what to cook, but why food works the way it does.

If you want to become a better cook by actually understanding your food, you’re in the right place.

Save this one for the next time your plate feels like it’s missing something—and follow for more Can We Talk About… food science, technique and culinary storytelling.

You probably don’t hate bourbon… you may have just been introduced to it badly.

The trick is balance: citrus for brightness, smoke for depth, sweetness without overdoing it, and bitters to season the drink the same way I’d season food.

For this one I used Bluegrass Bitters Spice Orange, Dark Cherry, Black Walnut, and their Smoky Simple Syrup to build something that’s bourbon-forward without being bourbon-aggressive.

Balanced. A little smoky. Citrus. Cherry. Walnut.

The bourbon is still there… it just learned some manners.

Maybe you don’t hate bourbon.
Maybe you just needed a better introduction.

Sometimes self-care is admitting you’re not leaving the house. 😂

Late-night craving + empty fridge = I let DoorDash handle the logistics.

Brown butter brownie s’more showed up at my door and, well…

Lawd!

COLUMBUS, OHIO — this one is for you. 🧈

The first Soulfull Biscuit | Biscuits + Butter Saturday Biscuit Drop is happening Saturday, September 12 — and I’m only making 25 boxes.

That’s it.

Because these are made by hand, in small batches, and I want every box to leave the kitchen exactly the way it should.

Inside this first drop:

✨ Sunday Best — my signature buttermilk biscuit
🧀 Old BAE Cheddah — sharp cheddar + Old Bay
🍯 Honey, Hush — brown butter, honey + cinnamon-sugar goodness

HOW TO ORDER:

1. Tap the link in my bio
2. Select the Soulfull Saturday — Sept. 12 Drop
3. Choose your biscuit box + any butter add-ons
4. Complete your preorder
5. Pick up your order in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday, September 12

Important: This drop is pickup only in Columbus. No shipping for this one.

And because there are only 25 boxes available, once all 25 are claimed, ordering closes.

No extra batch.
No pulling one out from the back.
No “Chef, I know somebody who knows somebody…” 😂

If the order button says SOLD OUT, somebody beat you to the biscuit.

This is the beginning of Soulfull Saturday — really good biscuits, really good butter, made with a whole lot of care and just enough foolishness.

25 boxes. Columbus only. September 12.

Tap the link in my bio to preorder yours.

Get in the box before I close it. 📦🧈
