lard and bacon fat biscuits

There is (historically) nothing unique about using lard and bacon fat to help AP flour and buttermilk come together into a drool-worthy roll-out biscuit. However, the crisp, unctuous flake developed by baking these animal fats is far and away more decadent and satisfying than your plain Jane butter-based or even plainer Jane straight buttermilk biscuit. Using near-puff pastry-like rolling precision, you'll find that the endless flaky layers will be the stuff of dreams. <br /> <br />This recipe makes 12-15 biscuits, and can easily be altered to a mini-biscuit recipe. While the recipe calls for a 3-inch round cookie cutter, for mini-biscuits, use a 1 to 1 1/2-inch round. Bake at 425-degrees F for only 8-10 minutes, or until a deep golden brown on top.
