Serve these hot with some apple butter, to die 
for.  They are great with fried chicken, corn, mashed spuds, pecan pie, and 
iced safrass (sp.?) tea. 

If you are ever near Nashville Ind. it is a great place to to get a meal.  
My wife and I will drive an hour and a half a couple of times a year just 
for these Biscuits.

biscuits and drop into hot fat.

This recipe will make about seven doz biscuits.  They can be frozen 
individually and stored in plastic bags.  When you work them up, don't let 
the biscuits rise too hight the fat should be slightly hotter thatn 350 
degrees F.  If the fat should be too hot, the biscuits will be soggy in the 
center.
