CHARLOTTE, N.C. — In honor of National Buttermilk Biscuit Day on May 14, NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Jr. is taking on a Southern staple for the first time, with the help of Bojangles' Master Biscuit Maker Felecia Robinson.
According to a news release, Earnhardt Jr. underwent a crash course in biscuit making, baking and serving biscuits of his own. He also worked in the drive-thru and meet and greet with customers at the brand-new Kannapolis store.
“Our biscuits are our pride and joy, which is why we’ve worked so hard to perfect the recipe that now includes a whopping 49 steps, so you know it’s made with love,” Marshall Scarborough, VP of menu and culinary innovation for Bojangles, said. “Because these biscuits are made by our certified Master Biscuit Makers, they are consistently good and have become a staple for our brand.”
