And don’t let the size of this kitchen fool you; on a busy weekend day, the cooks at the Biscuit Pit can easily churn out 1,000 of these rolls.

The most popular orders are breakfast sandwiches made with bacon, eggs, sausage, or sometimes all three with a dollop of jelly on top.

There’s even a wall of mugs, known as the “cup ministry,” where regulars who have passed are immortalized in this unique way.
