Got Leftover Bacon Grease? Make Southern-Style Biscuits

While home cooks may utilize their leftover bacon fat to flavor veggies or oil pans later, you can make good use of that liquid gold by combining it with biscuits.

Biscuits and bacon have always been a quality pairing, but this way, you can incorporate bacon's smoky flavor directly into your biscuit dough.

Use a basic buttermilk biscuit recipe and add bacon fat in place of the butter. Due to the grease's fattiness, less gluten will form in the biscuit, making it much more tender.
