RALEIGH, N.C. — Not too many
years ago the ham biscuit was to be
found only in backroad Southern
diners.
It had — and has — its devoted
fans. Critics, too.
Some called them light as only a
home-baked biscuit can be. Some
said those homecooked biscuits we
ren’t always so light.
Brace yourselves, Yankees. The
fast-food industry has hold of the
ham biscuit; sausage, too.
In pursuit of the breakfast trade,
Wendy’s, Hardee’s, 7-Eleven, even
the golden arch crowd, have been
testing them, mostly on South
erners.
There is the story of the New York
girl who came to Raleigh hungry.
She wanted a bagel. Her Southern
friend didn’t know bagels. He
bought her a sausage biscuit.
It didn’t look like a bagel. Biscuits
are kind of white and golden — no
hard crust, generally. They taste dif
ferent. And there’s the meat — patty
or slice. Sometimes it sticks out.
Sometimes it stays in.
They cost 40 cents plain, around
$1 stuffed. Size varies. Some are
round as a telephone dial, a bit thick
er. Others are big as a hamburger
bun. But what he bought her came
close to your average bagel, but no
hole.
It is said, after that, she gave up
bagels for biscuits — the sausage
kind. Ham, too.
Maybe the fast food chains heard
that story. They figured there’s a
market. Several are moving on the
North and West.
There’s the 7-Elevens. Alisa Mar
tin, of that Dallas-based chain, says
they’ve had sausage biscuits in their
artillery for seven years. She boasts
they’re now in 6,700 7-Elevens in 42
states and the District of Columbia.
“One of our best selling food items, ”
she says.
The 1,250-store Hardee’s chain
began offering biscuits in 900 South
ern outlets last year. Now biscuits
account for 12 percent of sales.
“It’s a resounding success,” said
Hardee’s Ron Wertheim.
He said Hardee’s western outlets
are offering biscuits now. Northeast
ern franchises will be pushing them
this spring.
McDonald’s is test marketing ham
and sausage biscuits in parts of Virgi
nia and the Raleigh area. Wendy’s
has them here and is trying them out
on Ohio.
The ultimate in biscuit mania is
the 17-store Virginia-based chain
called Biscuitville. The stores offer
16 kinds of biscuits, including pork
tenderloin, cheese and egg. There is
talk of beefsteak biscuits; fried chick
en, too.
The people who speak for the
chains say biscuits make sense for
commuting breakfasters. They con
tain neither the gooey fillings of
doughnuts nor the sticky icings of
sweet rolls on which the quickie
breakfaster has been hardened.
There is only biscuit and filling, a
combination that doesn t crumble or
spill.
And they’re simple to make, con
sisting mainly of milk, flour and eggs.
They’re filling.
Too filling, dieters may find.
While a piece of toast has 70 calories,
a yeast doughnut 175, the typical
sausage biscuit weighs in at nearly
300.
Marjorie Donnelly, a home eco
nomist with North Carolina’s agri
cultural extension service, says ham
and sausage biscuits probably were
invented by poor blacks who used
starchy baked goods to fill out a meal.
Wayne Bunting, operations direc
tor for the Biscuitville chain, said
Biscuitville started in 1971 when he
and the other owners of a six-store
pizza chain decided to sell biscuits
during the hours before the pizza
trade began. The flour and ovens
they used for pizza crusts were easily
adaptable to biscuits. Soon some of
the stores were making more money
selling biscuits than pizza.
In late 1977, Hardee’s conducted
its first tests. The company is based
in Rocky Mount, N.C. Half its stores
are in six Southern states,
acquainted with biscuits.
“The educational proas
M id west and the North is
cult, so your advertisingnniij

eim said.
Speaking for McDonald's,
nie Skurdy said their bisoj]
have met with “a certain
success ” but may not be soli

Wendy’s said it has b
sweet rolls and English mi
