MY GRANNY'S OLD-FASHIONED BISCUITS
A simple, basic buttermilk biscuit with minimal ingredients. It's an old-fashioned recipe everyone should have handy. If you follow Elaine's directions, once baked the biscuit is perfectly flaky and fluffy with a little tang from the buttermilk. They're melt-in-your-mouth good.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Heavily grease a large cast-iron skillet or biscuit pan and set aside. (I prefer the cast iron skillet).
- 2. Put the flour into a large bowl and add lard/shortening.
- 3. Cut into flour using the usual pastry method.
- 4. Add buttermilk and mix with fork or hands.
- 5. Mix into a light dough.
- 6. Turn dough onto a floured board and knead a couple of times.
- 7. Pat dough to flatten to about 1/2 inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter, cut dough into biscuits.
- 8. Place cut biscuits in the prepared pan.
- 9. Pour melted shortening/butter over each biscuit.
- 10. Bake for about 13 to 15 minutes or until golden. Remove from pan and place into a covered container and allow to steam for about 5 minutes. You may also brush melted butter over top prior to steaming (if desired).
- 11. Serve hot with butter, apple butter, jellies, jams, honey, or anything else that you like.
- 12. Special Note: I didn't have a biscuit cutter, so what I did was open both ends of a 4-ounce sized mushroom can, washed and removed the label and it works perfectly.
SOUTHERN BREAKFAST BISCUITS - EASY BUT LIGHT AND FLUFFY
Having run through a range of biscuit recipes, this has become Kimberly's favorite way to have them. I'm not going to complain, they're lovely and fluffy, and if I have to make them, it's easy as pie. They're a little crispy on the edges, top and bottom, deliciously soft on the sides, and almost impossible to get wrong. All credit to the talented Kimberly for the recipe's creation. - Hugh

Steps:
- Pre-heat the oven to 450 Degrees Fahrenheit.
- Generously cover the bottom of an 8" square glass baking dish with Canola Oil, and set it in the oven.
- Combine Buttermilk and Flour in a mixing bowl.
- Add water until the consistency is slightly sloppier than dough. This wonderful little recipe works with a variety of consistencies - from slightly soggier than normal dough all the way to just-about-pourable.
- Add the 3 1/6th cups of Oil, and mix as little as necessary to combine all ingredients. Overmixing can lead to tough biscuits, so be careful not to fall for that trap!
- Take your glass dish from the oven, and pour/scoop/scrape your dough into it. Smooth it over the top if necessary, to ensure even sized biscuits. (no worries if you don't do this well, they still taste great).
- Oil a blunt knife and dip it in flour, and use it to cut your dough into 9 even squares.
- Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes, checking at 8, until they're golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and serve.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat egg with milk. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
- 2. Turn onto a well-floured surface. Knead 10-20 times. Roll dough out to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2 inch biscuit (or round cookie) cutter. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
J.P.'S BIG DADDY BISCUITS
This recipe will produce the biggest biscuits in the history of the world! Serve these gems with butter, preserves, honey, gravy or they can also be used as dinner rolls...you get the picture. The dough can also be prepared several hours, and up to a day ahead of time. If so, turn dough out onto aluminum foil that has been either floured, lightly buttered or lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Roll up foil until it is sealed, and refrigerate. Don't be surprised if your biscuits rise even higher because the baking powder has had more time to act in the dough. You may have to make a few batches before you get desired results: desired results equals huge mongo biscuits.

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.

- The secret to excellent biscuits is COLD BUTTER. Really cold. Many times the biscuit dough gets worked so much that the butter softens before the biscuits even go in the oven. Try cutting the butter into small pieces and stick back in the fridge pulling out only when ready to incorporate into the dough.
- Use a pastry cutter to cut cold butter into flour mixture. Don't go too crazy here - you want to see small, pea-sized pieces of butter throughout the dough.
