When my Aunt Laura made biscuits she made them in the flour tin. She would put a take the flour and make a mound...then make a doodle bug hole to pour in the buttermilk, etc... right in the tin!!! and they would melt in your mouth! She also made the Johnny cakes, I think that was what they called them. She would pour this very thin mixture in a frying pan with hot oil, leave the kitchen, get a load of clothes, come back flip them, take the clothes to the bedroom, come back and they were ready to serve. They would always be perfect. I would have set the house on fire. Also, when I try to make biscuits, my hubby says, I must be planning on building another rock garden!

Your biscuits sound like mine.
