I ask you WHY NOT? I have been on the search for grilled sides this spring, and I have tried this several times, but I now have it right. The answer was quite simple. All I needed to do was turn down the heat and rotate the pan… Dah…

I almost always have extra space on the grill for an easy side like this.
Use any drop biscuit recipe you want. I went with a simple one from an old Betty Crocker Cookbook that I have used for years.
Ingredients
2 cups AP flour
1 T baking powder
1 t salt
1/4 cup oil
3/4 cup buttermilk
Note on the buttermilk: You can use dried buttermilk which is what I do, or you can substitute for the buttermilk with 1 cup warm milk with 1-2 t vinegar added and set for 5 – 10 minutes
If the grill is not already on, preheat to medium.
First combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Brush a cast iron skillet with 1-2 t of oil.
Mix buttermilk and oil. Then wet into dry. Mix until moist.
Using a large tablespoon heaping with dough, make eight biscuits and place in pan.
Place on grill over medium heat. Rotate pan after 8-9 minutes.
Cook until browning about 18 minutes.

I can’t resist homemade biscuits – they look terrific (and so does the chicken down below).

Made these last night for dessert. Added some cinnamon and 1/3 cup white sugar. I Used 1/4 cup of butter (instead of the oil) and cut into the flour mixture before adding the wet. I used two square pans lined with foil and placed them on the top rack of the BBQ. These are wonderful turned into Strawberry short cakes for after supper. Thank You for the recipe and I will be useing it again.
