Units of Measurement:
Biscuits
2 Cup all-purpose flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
1 Tablespoon Traeger Rub
8 Tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 Cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 Cup buttermilk
Topping
4 Tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1/4 Teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 Teaspoon onion powder
Flaky sea salt

Steps

  • 1

    Step 1 Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Preheat the Traeger with the lid closed to 450°F; this will take about 15 minutes.

    450 ˚F / 232 ˚C

  • 2

    In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and Traeger Rub.

  • 3

    Add the butter and, using a pastry cutter or fork, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it forms small crumbs and stays together when pinched. Add the cheese and mix until well combined. Slowly add buttermilk and mix until the flour is fully incorporated and a sticky dough forms. Do not overmix.

  • 4

    Using about one scant 1/4 cup of dough per biscuit, roll the dough lightly in your hands to make rough rounds (do not compact them). Place the rounds on the prepared baking sheet with about 2 inches between.

  • 5

    Transfer the baking sheet to the grill, close the lid, and cook until light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

    450 ˚F / 232 ˚C

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the melted butter, parsley, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  • 7

    While biscuits are still hot, brush them with the butter mixture and finish with a little flaky salt. Serve warm. Enjoy!
