Directions:
- Put flour, lard, sugar, salt, baking soda in a food processor and mix until it resembles coarse meal (usually, just a few quick pulses with the food processor will do).
- If you don't have a food processor use a fork and cut lard into ingredients until it's blended thoroughly.
- Then put flour in a mixing bowl and add buttermilk.
- Mix just until ingredients are blended.
- Don't overmix or handle dough very much or your biscuits will be tough.
- Pour dough on a floured surface and GENTLY pat down until it's about 3/4 thick.
- You'll have to flour your hands to pat it down so it won't stick to you.
- Then use a biscuit cutter to cut biscuits out and place in a buttered cast iron skillet or baking pan.
- Use your index finger to place a slight indention in the center of each biscuit.
- This prevents the center from rising faster than the edges.
- Coat tops of biscuits with melted butter or margarine and bake at 425 degrees for approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown.
