    This recipe was easy to follow, I especially like that there isn't a lot of ingredients. The biscuits came out delicious, I have made these biscuits twice now and both times they came out great.

    These biscuits are great! I've made them several times, and they have turned out perfect each time. I tend to use all butter because I don't have shortening, and I use Alton's tip for subsituting a cup of milk and a teaspoon of lemon juice for the buttermilk. It works, and the biscuits are perfect every time. Baking them in an a cast-iron skillet seems to cook them best.

    These where great and super easy to do. Tasted amazing.

    I see a few people with problems with the dough being sticky. Its will always be sticky. But once you kneed them in the flour on your counter they will absorb the flour and become less stick and more manageable.

    Super light and fluffy, best biscuits, EVER! I was out of butter so I used all lard in mine, no shortening.
    To avoid the tougher biscuits that happen when you gather the scraps together, I just pat the dough into a square and cut square biscuits.

    Without a doubt the best biscuit recipe I've ever tried. Biscuits come out perfect every time. Light, flaky, with just that right amount of buttermilk flavor. As I have used it and become used to it, I've adapted it as my recipe for cheese biscuits, chive biscuits, rosemary biscuits and also as my recipe for scones. My apple, cinnamon, and raisin scones are beyond delicious!

    This is my go to recipe for biscuits and scones, they can become scones with the addition of some sugar and fruit, perfect each way. They are easy and light and fluffy. I make my own buttermilk all the time with vinegar added to milk. I use my food processor to cut up the shortening b/c it's faster. This is the only biscuit recipe you'll ever need.
