- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl mix the flour, shortening, and salt together.
- Work in shortening with a fork until it looks like meal.
- Add in just enough buttermilk to make a nice stiff dough. If it looks too sticky, add just a little more flour, but do not overwork the dough. Touch it as little as possible.
- Roll out onto a floured board 1/2 inch thick. Cut out biscuits with a floured coffee cup or biscuit cutter. Place onto an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake until golden brown. Remove from the oven and top each with a pat of butter.
