Grilled Honey Biscuits With Thyme Food

GRILLED HONEY BISCUITS WITH THYME

Steps:

• Heat grill or Big Green Egg to 450°F. In the Egg, put the convEGGtor (legs pointing up) under the grill grate.
• Add the cold butter, flour, baking powder, salt, and thyme to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the butter is broken down into pea-sized bits in the flour.
• Pour the butter-flour mixture into a mixing bowl. Add the buttermilk and honey, and use a fork to stir until just incorporated.
• Pour the biscuit dough onto a floured surface and sprinkle flour over top. Quickly form into a ~1 to 1-½-inch thick disk. Use a 2-1/2 inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits by pushing - not twisting - the biscuit cutter down straight into the dough. Put the biscuits in a cast iron pan.
• Bake in the grill or BGE at 450°F for 12-15 minutes over indirect heat (i.e. over the convEGGtor in a BGE or over burners that are off in a grill) or until biscuits are cooked through and golden on top.
• Brush melted butter over the tops of the biscuits and serve.

GRILLED HOT HONEY BISCUITS WITH THYME-ROASTED PEACHES

Steps:

• To make the Thyme-Roasted Peaches:.
• Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. Cut the halves into 4 wedges each. Lay half of the peaches in two rows on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to fold over them on both sides.
• Scatter one tablespoon of the butter, half of the thyme and 1 tablespoon of honey over the peaches. Repeat this process with another piece of foil and the remaining peaches and ingredients.
• Lightly sprinkle salt over the prepared peaches. Bring the long ends of the foil to meet over the peaches and fold over to seal. Bring the short ends over and press together to seal. This will create two flat packets.
• Place the packets, seam-side down on a grill set to medium heat. Cook with the grill cover on for 5 minutes. Flip the packets and cook for another 5 minutes until the peaches are tender when pierced with a fork but not over cooked. Let rest.
• To make the Grilled Hot Honey Biscuits:.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and lemon zest. Add the butter and work it into the dry mixture with your fingers until the butter forms small pea-sized clumps. Stir in the buttermilk and gently knead the dough until it comes together.
• Roll into a 3-inch-thick log and cut into 8 even pieces. Press the biscuits into 1/2-inch thick disks. The biscuits should be flatter than normal to enable them to be cooked on the grill.
• Spray both sides of the biscuits with nonstick spray and place on the grill set to very low heat. Cook for 5 minutes on each side with the grill cover on. The biscuits are done when they are firm and not squishy in the middle. (NOTE: due to the inconsistent heat of grills, it's important to monitor the biscuit's cooking. If needed, flip the biscuits more than once to ensure they are cooked through without burning them.).
• Once the biscuits are done, remove from the grill and drizzle with the hot honey. Set aside to cool slightly.
• To assemble:.
• Top the biscuits with 3 or 4 pieces of peaches, making sure to include any delicious juices that seeped out and garnish with a dollop of crème fraiche or unsweetened whipped cream.
