From the Pudgy Kid Who Ate All the Biscuits, Tom Brady Has Come a Long Way Following a Cute Thanksgiving Tradition

Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have made the perfect return to form in the midseason. After winning against the Seattle Seahawks in NFL’s debut fixture in Munich, Germany, Brady and the Bucs are getting ready for Thanksgiving football.

However, with the holiday season approaching, football might not be the first thing on Tampa Tom’s mind. In a recent episode of the ‘Armchair QB’ on the Buccaneers’ official YouTube channel, Brady talked about his favorite Thanksgiving meal of all time; buttermilk biscuits.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers first and second quarterbacks, Tom Brady and Blaine Gabbert, sat for another episode of Armchair QB and discussed their favorite Thanksgiving memories. Brady’s No 1 memory was his grandma’s buttermilk cookies. After the passing of Tom’s grandmother, his aunt took over the biscuit department for Thanksgiving. However, at 45, and with the kids coming over for Thanksgiving, Tom Brady is making those biscuits himself nowadays.

Brady recalled his pudgy and out-of-fitness days when the buttermilk biscuits formed the best part of his day. This was way before TB12 won six super Bowls with New England Patriots and another one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, even when Brady lifted all those Lombardi trophies, it’s safe to say the buttermilk biscuits were on his mind.

Tom Brady had a specific way to go about his favorite biscuits

Tom Brady ended the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ slow run to the season when they suffered three back-to-back losses. The Bucs lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Carolina Panthers and the Baltimore Ravens before bouncing back in their last two games. The 15x Pro bowler led his team to crunch-time victory against the LA Rams and dominated the Seattle Seahawks at Allianz Arena in Munich.

However, Tom Brady displayed more passion for describing his biscuit preparation than on-field during game-winning drives. “What do I like to do? They’re buttermilk biscuits. You smother them with a little butter and then with some syrup on top,” TB12 drooled and described. The Tampa No 12 admitted how hooked he was on the buttermilk biscuits. At one point, Brady was consuming his Thanksgiving turkey as a side dish, while the buttermilk delights formed the main part of his course.
