Red Lobster's Cheddar Biscuits

      If you've ever eaten at a Red Lobster Restaurant you probably remember the steaming basket of Cheddar Biscuits that were served alongside your meal.  This recipe is a dead ringer for those scrumptious, flaky biscuits.  Red Lobster says it is the number one most requested online recipe.  Well here it is in all it's glory, they couldn't be easier to make and bake beautifully in your dutch oven.  In my 10 inch oven I baked them with 10 coals around the bottom and 24 on the lid, in 17 minutes they were brown and ready for their final brushing of garlic-parsley butter.  Eat 'em while they're hot, they are melt in your mouth delicious.  From "Top Secret Restaurant Recipes 2" by Todd Wilbur.
