These are a hit for holiday with my family. I remember gobbling these down as a child in Tennessee. What a trip down memory lane to have them again, homemade. These are sweet and tasty. I add my salt last to give the yeast a chance to get going, and I really watch the development of the dough as I add the flour. My advice with the flour is to eyeball it every time, then they come out perfect! -
I'm the odd woman out on this one...I and my family thought these rolls were fabulous! Believe me, I was pretty skeptical when I first mixed the dough together and got a sticky mess when I tried to knead it. So I decided not to knead it at all and to just see what happens. In the shaping step, I greased my hands as well as the muffin pan with melted homemade ghee, which made the dough much easier to work with and gave the rolls a slightly nutty flavor. The rolls came out very tender, delicious, and would have tasted very similar to O'Charley's if I had drenched them in butter. Thanks for a great recipe!

WAY too dense they were more like biscuits than rolls

Have used this recipe for a few years now and it is great. As close to O'charleys as you can get. To Chef 834479 who claims to be a cook at O'charleys, you don't have a clue as how O'charleys rolls are made. O'charleys has there rolls made by a company called Cornerstone Baking. The only thing the cook does is take them out of the store bought packages and heats.
