AWESOME CAST IRON BUTTERMILK BISCUITS
I finally came up with a biscuit recipe that I can live with... These biscuits are cooked up in a cast iron skillet (but any skillet should do), and come out fluffy and tasty. They are great for breakfast, or any time you crave a good tasty biscuit. I'll usually break one open and put a nice piece of country sausage in, or...

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. Gather your ingredients.
- 3. Chef's Tip: What I do with the butter is place it into the freezer for about an hour, then remove and shred on the large holes of a box grater.
- 4. Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to a large bowl.
- 5. Add the sour cream.
- 6. Mix the sour cream into the flour.
- 7. Place the 3 additional tablespoons of butter in the skillet.
- 8. Place over low, heat and allow the butter to melt.
- 9. Place a rack in the upper-middle position, and preheat the oven to 450f (232c).
- 10. Remove the frozen, grated butter from the freezer, and add to the flour mixture.
- 11. Use a pastry cutter or two knifes to cut the butter into the flour.
- 12. Chef's Note: You should have small bits of butter, mixed in with the flour.
- 13. Mix in the cold buttermilk, and incorporate using a fork, until the dough is a bit crumbly, but not overly wet.
- 14. Remove the dough from the bowl, and add to a lightly floured surface.
- 15. Use your hands to shape and pat the dough out to 1-inch (2.5cm) thick.
- 16. Chef's Tip: Work the dough a little as possible. The more you work the dough, the tougher the biscuits will be.
- 17. Use a biscuit cutter, and cut out round biscuits.
- 18. Raise the heat under the skillet to medium high, and allow the butter to begin to simmer.
- 19. Remove the skillet from the stovetop, and add the biscuits.

- 22. PLATE/PRESENT
- 23. Leave them in the skillet, and have your guests grab one or two. These are great for breakfast with eggs, or any other breakfast foods you like. Enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place a 10 1/2-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven to heat.
- Add the flour to a large bowl. Use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the shortening into the flour until the crumbs are the size of large peas.
- Slowly pour in the buttermilk, then mix with your hands until the mixture starts to form a dough. Add buttermilk if it feels too dry. As soon as the dough comes together, transfer to a floured work surface. Press the dough into a square and fold it over itself to create layers, using additional flour to keep the dough from sticking. Shape into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Use a 2- to 3-inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits, rerolling the scraps to use all the dough.
- Take the skillet out of the oven and add 2 tablespoons melted butter. Place the biscuits in the skillet, then lightly brush the tops with the remaining butter.
- Bake until lightly golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes, then serve.
CAST IRON BUTTERMILK BISCUITS
Experimentation and a need for more biscuits per batch led me to what we think are the best biscuits anywhere! For optimum flavor, these must be baked in hot, buttered cast iron skillets. They are great for breakfast with gravy or jellies. Also excellent with beef stew for dinner. My husband likes the leftover biscuits even better. He breaks them open on a plate and smothers them with molasses.

CHEF JOHN'S BUTTERMILK BISCUITS
This deceptively simple recipe can come out a million different ways with some very minor variations on the ingredients and amounts. This one's my favorite - flaky, but not dry; chewy, but not tough; crisp in just the right spots.
