Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups all-purpose flour , stirred before measuring
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup lard or 1/4 cup vegetable shortening, chilled
2 tbsp real butter, room temp
3/4 cup buttermilk

Directions:

Heat oven to 450 and adjust oven rack to center position.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt.
Cut in chilled shortening and butter until you have pieces the size of small peas.
Make a well in center of dry ingredients; pour in buttermilk. With a wooden spoon, gently blend dry ingredients into the buttermilk, just until mixture is clumping together. If necessary, add a few more teaspoons of buttermilk.
Transfer dough to a lightly floured board.
Pat out in a circle about 8 inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick. Using a 2 1/2 to 3-inch biscuit cutter, cut out and place on ungreased baking sheet.
Bake on center oven rack for about 10 to 12 minutes, until tops are browned.
