re: Looking for a Decent Biscuit (from scratch) Recipe

My Camp Catheads

about 2 cups of self rising flour
about 2-3 forkfulls of Crisco, butter flavored
about 1 tablespoon of baking powder
some buttermilk, a little bit of butter and a cast iron skillet

mix flour and baking powder, cut in Crisco using fork until mixed, add buttermilk and stir until you get the right gooey thickness. Take a paper towell or use hand and coat inside of skillet with Crisco. Put flour on your hands and make balls (between golf and baseball sized) out of mixture, put in skillet and pat down slightly, give em a few minutes to rise back and then pat down slightly again and put a pat of butter on each cathead. Bake @ about 350 until they are ready to eat.
At the camp in an emergency situation, when there is no buttermilk, can substitute with milk, sprite, ginger ale, mayonaise, or Coors Light. Remember, all measurements are exact...
