I have just always made good old fashion, southern style biscuits, with a good quality lard, no additives. I never thought about changing up a good thing.
I know folks have been told lard is bad, but now the thinking has changed on that. Much better for you than that shortening, folks have been convinced to use for years.
I happen to be swamped with sourdough, since a couple of people wanted some of my starter, and I got a little carried away. I have a good bit of it drying, to mail. Just thought the biscuits would be a good use for some of the extra.
I put off making these, until the weekend, when the family is not so rushed.
