GRANDMA GERALDINE'S FAMOUS BISCUITS
Eddie Jackson can pinpoint the moment he began falling in love with food: the first time he rolled out homemade biscuit dough with his grandmother Geraldine. She was the head chef at the high school in his hometown, Americus, GA, for more than 45 years, and as a kid Eddie spent mornings in the cafeteria, helping her prep. "Seeing how excited the kids would get as they came through the breakfast line to get my grandmother's biscuits stuck with me," Eddie says. The women in his family have passed down the recipe for generations. This recipe works for drop biscuits or cutouts. "My grandmother would do both," Eddie says.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Sift 2 cups flour, the salt, sugar and baking powder into a large bowl. Mix in the lard with a fork or your fingers until well blended.
- Gradually add the buttermilk until the dough is wet and sticky (but not too wet), then add the remaining 3 tablespoons flour until the dough comes together and is kneadable. Either pinch off 2-inch biscuits or pat out the dough until ½ inch thick on a lightly floured surface and cut out biscuits with a floured 2-inch round cutter; arrange on a baking sheet. Brush the tops of the biscuits with buttermilk.
- Bake the biscuits until golden brown on top, 15 to 17 minutes.
GRANDMA WILLIAMS' BISCUITS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease three 9-inch pie tins with 2 teaspoons lard.
- Put the biscuit mix in a bowl and make a well in the middle of the flour. Put the lard in the well and add the buttermilk. Gently mix the buttermilk and lard into the flour with your hands until a soft dough forms. If the dough is dry, add a little more buttermilk; if it's too wet, add a little more flour. Coat your hands well with flour and gently form the dough into balls a little larger than a golf ball. Place the dough balls in the pie tins, 7 per tin. Gently press each ball down to flatten.
- Bake until lightly browned on top and the biscuits release from the tins when you give them a shake, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and rub the tops of the biscuits with the butter or margarine. Serve hot!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2.
- Melt the butter, and mix in the beaten egg. (margarine can be used instead of the butter, but they do lose some of the melt in the mouth quality).
- Mix together the dry ingredients, and then add the butter/egg mix. Make sure these mix thoroughly, it may be necessary to use your hands.
- Shape the resulting dough into small balls roughly 2cm across.
- Place WELL APPART on a thoroughly greased tray, (About 6 on an average sized tray) and bake for 20-25 mins. (If they are still a bit pale after this, turn the oven up a fraction to brown them slightly).
- Leave to cool completely on the tray.
GRANDMA'S SOURDOUGH BISCUITS
My grandma makes these every time we go over for dinner. I got my starter from her, so I too make these every couple weeks when I need to use up some starter. They are really fast and easy, and taste delicious right out of the oven.

GRANDMA'S BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
This is my grandmother's biscuit recipe. It is my all-time favorite and has a really good flavor to it. Be sure not to roll out too thin, you want high biscuits! I usually just pat out the dough to the desired thickness, usually 1/2 inch.
