Southern Buttermilk Biscuits


3 C. self rising flour

1 tsp. sugar

1/2 C. lard

3/4 C. buttermilk, maybe a tad more if needed

2 T. melted butter

Combine the flour and sugar in a bowl. Cut the lard into flour using a pastry blender or two forks. Add enough buttermilk to make a soft dough and knead until smooth (do not over knead as this will lend a tough biscuit). With floured hands pinch off a bit of the dough and roll into a ball, lightly flatten in a greased iron skillet or pan. Bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for 15-18 minutes. Brush with melted butter when removed from the oven.
