3 reasons why biscuits are a back-of-house game changer

When patrons want comfort food, there’s one surefire way to give them a meal to remember: mouthwatering biscuits. But that’s not all biscuits can do.

The efficiency potential is off the charts, especially when operators are regularly purchasing fewer ingredients, training staff less often, making fewer mistakes—the list goes on.

With hearty biscuits, however, operators can build to-go meals with peace of mind knowing that they’ll meet and exceed expectations.
