Bacon, mozzarella, cheddar cheese. Three ingredients that are pretty awesome on their own and can supercharge any dish into breathlessness. “You can’t go wrong putting them all together.” as Chef Brooke Higgins said to me.
That’s what she did to her biscuits at one of the Monday night BBQ buffets one night at Sweet Lucy’s. Putting the bacon, mozzarella, and cheddar cheese together in a biscuit is the perfect storm for wholesomeness.
The bacon was crisp. Chef Brooke cut them into relatively large pieces so each bite was substantial. You could really feel the bacon in your mouth. The mozzarella and the cheddar provided dueling flavors of sweetness and cheesiness to play with the salt, fat, and smoke of the bacon. This juxtaposition of flavors, taste and aroma was held together firmly by a yellow puff of golden biscuit holiness.
It is not a regular item on Chef Brooke’s buffet nor on the regular menu but I hope that this perfect storm hits more regularly.
