I don't like a bisquit that falls apart

I agree, I have had much better luck with the Pioneer mix. As much bread as I bake, I have never nailed down biscuits.

I don't get the BR love for Frank's, been many times for a networking breakfast, biscuits, and all the other breakfast fare is mediocre at best.

My recipe for about 6-7 biscuits.

Mix
2 cups flour
4tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

Rub in 3 tbsp butter and 3 tbsp crisco, lightly work it in.

Make a well and pour in 10 oz buttermilk, mix with a spatula until everything is combined. Mix as little as possible.

Pour some flour out onto a board. And form mix into a ball of dough coating all sides with flour.

Flatten out until an inch thick, fold in half, sprinkle a little flour on top. Repeat 4 more times.

Flatten it out again then use something round to cut out the biscuits. 17-20 minutes at 450, until golden brown.

The key to the whole process is to work the ingredients as little as possible.

I was just perusing Mason's brunch menu, and it's showing that they offer biscuits and gravy, although I've never had them there.
