These look really good. I'm partial to the Red Lobster Cheddar Bay biscuits or a good copycat, but I can easily see chowing down on a plate of these. I'm curious as to what beer is recommended to be used? I think this would work with a darker beer, but I'm open to experimenting with some lighter ones. I'd love to try incorporating a bit of sausage into this, since I think the result would be incredibly tasty. I normally use some stone ground mustard as a dipping sauce when I make sausage balls.

I was wondering if there was a substitute that would work instead of beer? Any suggestions?

1/2 cup of cheese is 2 oz. because it is put into the measuring cup loosely not packed like flour would be

This sounds good, but it calls for a 1/2 cup of cheese, then says 2 ounces. A half-cup is 4 ounces. Which is correct?

Made these for a Saturday night "potluck" BBQ that we have every Saturday evening. They are a hit! My husband loves them. The only thing is, I doubled the recipe, used a teaspoon and only got 30 drops. No worries though...I made another batch so everyone could enjoy them. Love this recipe!

I like to use a slightly drained chunky salsa. A brick of pepperjack cheese so I can " chunky" grate it myself. The beer. Then I add chopped crisp bacon...., continue with the recipe. Yum!

Wouldn't make these again - it's just a spicey biscuit. I tried to figure out what to add next time to make it better, and decided not to bother trying.

how about if you tried shredded cheddar without pepper in it and used mild salsa?
