Anyone have an easy biscuit recipe?

Unless you're Muslim or Jewish, in which case SORRY YOUR RELIGION FORCES YOU TO MISS OUT.

OR VEGETARIAN BHWAAAHAHAHAHAHAA










BTW yes, I think Alton Brown is a good resource for learning how to do it right, because he always explains the reasoning behind the steps. That way it's easier to remember (at least, for me) the important bits, because you know which parts of the recipe are really important and which parts are "just traditional" or "because grandma always did it like that", so you can prevent yourself from ehhrm cargo-cult-cooking

A lot of Alton Brown's episodes are on youtube, this is the one about the biscuits (in two parts, 20 minutes total):

Use lard.

That is all I have to say. Best biscuits you will ever fucking taste ever in your life.

I made french fries in lard once. They were FRENCH FRIES FROM TEH GODS...but my house smelled funky.

Not to piss in anyone's corn flakes, and I realize this is Apple Talk where almost anything goes.... but don't we have an entire food subforum for stuff like this?

[LMNO]

Yup.  But more people look at AT, I'm guessing.

[hooplala]

Very true.
