Same here ~ I’ve just blocked my whole family and told my mum I’ll never see them again, I’m done with them, they don’t give a shit about me and I can’t go on pretending they do, they say they do but not enough to care, my dad died last august and since then I’ve barely seen them, I felt like I lost my whole family when my dad died, but I’m ready to move on, to give myself a chance at a life and this video has helped me to forget about them, it has me smiling and tomorrow is a new day and I’m gonna get on with my life as best I can. :)

[@karendorminey8493]

Hello everyone, I am new & was looking at different biscuit recipes. I live in southern Georgia but grew up in the Ozark mountains & my family came here from Italy so I grew up on Italian bread rather than biscuits mainly but I married a southern boy 35 yrs ago & had to learn to make food he grew up on which meant buttermilk biscuits.It took me 2 yrs to get it right & I did it by feel not measuring. U were so right saying some days they were great but some days they were not. So his aunt taught me to use white lilly self rising flour, crisco & whole milk buttermilk. She explained it simply 2 -3 cups sifted flour make a well or birds nest in the center & 2 hen egg size of crisco in the well with a cup &1/2 of buttermilk (the crisco was about 1/4C) she would use her hands to combine the crisco & buttermilk & she would slowly pull in from the sides her flour the turn it out onto a floured surface she turned it over on itself about 3-4 times & pat it out to her desired thickness & use a can floured on the end to cut them out but she would push down & twist & transfer to a greased pan & that's what I learned to make so I was looking for something different & simple but they need to taste like a real biscuit should or he won't touch it. I am going to try yours & see if he will go for it. Sure would make my life easier. Thank you so much for sharing & I look forward to seeing looking at your other videos. God bless you for sharing. I never have heard of chocolate gravy. Oh my.

I love to cook without a recipe. I get bored and tired with cooking for my family. Watching these videos reminds me of the importance of preparing food and keeping the family healthy and happy. I think of my granny feeding her family in WW2 England. Thanks for the reminder that it is good work to feed a family well.

[@marylandmonroe]

My mother came back from visiting my cousin and started making biscuits with sharp cheddar, bacon, and chives. Oh, my goodness. They're heavenly. We just make a regular biscuit recipe, throw in a handful of shredded cheddar, chop the bacon after it's crispy, and cut the chives with scissors. The amounts for the cheese, bacon, and chives are just whatever fits when you fold them in. We love them!!

If the biscuits are even half as good as your chocolate oatmeal no bake cookies then winners they are. Very happy to hear that the shower for Cory and Austin's upcoming wedding was a success. The help of good friends surely made the day's success even more grand.

Didn’t grow up in the mountains but grew up in rural ky. You remind me of days gone by, of family and old recipes. I miss those days very much. My grandmother, aunts and uncles, cousins and sitting in the yard talking about anything that caught their fancy. Thanks for the memories. My mother made fried pies just like that.

[@Ambimom]

Even though I'm a northerner born and bred, I have always loved biscuits. I've tried all kinds of recipes and techniques, but lately I've come up with a new way to make them. Instead of butter or shortening, I use 2 oz. grated cheddar cheese, 1 cup self-rising flour, and enough milk (sometimes plain yogurt) to form the dough. I used to pat them and use a biscuit cutter but pulling pieces and patting them into rounds works just fine. I bake them in cast iron (ungreased) at 450 F until golden brown. They are surprisingly delicious. My cast iron is well-seasoned of course. Cast iron is another Southern tradition I came to later in life but most everything I cook is in cast iron.

[@johnarnettsways.8758]

Mam this is so much like my mommas house. I miss her and the food that I grew up eating. I feel as a country we have lost most of what is truly food that is not only the best but food that tells a story and has carried a many of man and women through our daily living. Thank you for probably the best food I have ever seen. ❤️🌲🌲🌲❤️

[@carlabridgesmason3529]

I agree, now days a lot of people will shame you for eating anything with fat or sugar in it. Everything has to be healthy, people see food as evil. My husband and I don’t see it that way. My Nanny was 101 when she died, my mother in-law was 99…a few days shy of a hundred.

[@AClark15]

We always called that last biscuit the baby biscuit and the baby in our family always got it too. I’ve never seen biscuits made this way, but I’ll definitely be trying it.

[@rhondabutler4172]

What a wonderful recipe! I can't wait to try it. It's been a while since I made homemade biscuits, but I have a biscuit cutter my dad made in grade school for my grandma. She gave it to me and I treasure it. He passed away Sept. 10th at age 92. Thank you!

Wow, my mom did all these, i especially. loved the drop~ biscuits, so crunchy on the sides. she did the pies, i loved the blueberry, apple ones, she worked at a doughnut shop, it's so easy, and it makes me miss my mom, it makes me want to bake, cold, ugh!!, Waiting for winter days, when i go to my cabin. Thanks for my memories. :)

[@lindawolfe2092]

We always called the leftover dough a dough boy. My Grandmother taught me to make biscuits with just self rising flour and buttermilk. You have to put just a small amount of grease or vegetable oil on top of each to help them brown. Really good with bacon grease on top. She would also only use Hudson Cream flour.

[@dr.froghopper6711]

The cook deserves the baby biscuit because the laborer is worthy of their hire! Besides that, slathered with butter they’re goooood!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Exactly right 😀

[@nicola_riggs]

Thank you for this! It reminds me of my Mamaw’s cat head biscuits. She kept a bowl of flour and would make each batch of biscuits in a little well in that bowl. She didn’t roll them out, she’d just ‘pinch’ them off and put them on the cookie sheet. She’d put them close together so that they ended up being square, and then turn them out onto the plate. They were amazing! Golden brown on the outside and light and fluffy inside! We’d break one up in pieces and smother it with sausage gravy. Like you said, I could never make them like she did. (Although we can’t get the right flour in WI!)

[@angelasmith2368]

One of the few memories I have of my Grandma was when she was so happy that she could pop open a can and bake those biscuits in a few minutes. Those were such a time saver for her.

But since I have time, I'm going to try your recipe.

Tried the biscuits and everyone loved them. Reminds me of mom's 100%. We experimented with all sorts of recipes with loads of butter, buttermilk, cream, shortening, you name it but yours, which is apparently like mom's, we found to be the best! I believe in part because its what I'd call a clean, tasty biscuit. White, soft, fluffy, and without all the excessive fats & oily fingers. Of course that stuff has its place and is tasty but not necessary in biscuits. Not only are these good they are better for you. At least compared to the high ranked recipes we've tried. Yeah, we're sticking to yours. Keep up the great entertainment. Hope your family has fun doing the videos and be rewarding. Editing can be a handful. You do such a good job A to Z

What memories! I remember my grandmother and my mother would make their biscuits (and dumplings) with their hands in the flour tray working the flour into a well in the middle to get that perfect consistency. I’ve never had dumplings better than my mother’s! And we’ve never rolled out and cut our biscuits, we’ve always rolled them by hand. We always had to make that baby biscuit if there were little ones around. Btw, my grandmother’s flour tray was carved from a tree and given as a gift from my grandad when they were young. How sweet! 😍♥️♥️

[@kennydavis2276]

I learned my drop biscuit recipe that I eat with tomato gravy from my Mom and my light, fluffy buttermilk biscuit technique from my Grandma. It's two completely different animals, no doubt. Grandma would only knead hers 3, maybe 4 times. Any more than that and they're paper weights. After kneading she gently formed a ball and pinched each biscuit off in a peculiar way using only her thumb and index finger in an " OK " sign. I can get close, but they are still not Grandmas biscuits. She had more than 65 years of practice to my 20.

Once again you have made an extra good celebration of biscuits. I couldn’t get how to blend the flour and lard so I resorted to Bisquick. I remember watching you make chocolate gravy. Amazing! Always fun when you share your life and your family. I love watching all your videos 😊

Thank you very much for this video! I am biscuit challenged, and this looks like a good candidate recipe for me! And for the first time, I think baked hand pies may be do-able!

[@benitastevens612]

Enjoyed pie making again…made apple and love it!,

[@MrPhchello]

Thanks for this amazing looking recipe. And thanks for the hint on the butter. Can't wait to have these for breakfast tomorrow 😁

[@djot1745]

I really love chocolate gravy. It has been too long since I had some. I will have to plan on doing that this weekend. Your hand pies look soooo good. I bet my husband would love them. I have some dried apples I could use too.

I just found this recipe a while back for cream biscuits. You're right, they've never failed!! Momma rolled hers out like your granny, but I ended up using the whole bag of flour 😂. I grew up in southern Wilkes county and your videos bring back great memories. I will definitely be trying the garlic cheese and the hand pies! Thank you so much for sharing💜

Tracy my mom grew up in north Wilkesboro and she cooked on a woodstove and made biscuits and fried chicken she was the best cook she was little girl when she started cooking because her moma was sick all the time and pregnant she has passed now.15 brothers and sisters.

Enjoyed watching your video so much! I’ve mastered corn and flour tortillas as our main meals are Mexican food. Didn’t grow up having home cooked bread products so I’m having to learn new skills at 72 years of age to widen my prepping skills. I have bread down with a simple enough for me recipe but the biscuit videos I’d see looked very intimidating but you made this recipe that looks simple enough and I love how you said it was pretty fool proof given when it has been over handled by your students! I have never heard of chocolate gravy before and just couldn’t imagine it over food until I saw how you used it over your biscuit, lol! My husband will enjoy that for sure! Thank you for educating me and countless others!

Biscuit Bonanza! My Mama made her biscuits like yours did, but I never learned that method either. My first husband worked for theWhite Lily Flour Company in Knoxville and the employees were given test kitchen primer cookbooks. That's where I learned. I'll have to try your version with of the cheese garlic biscuits with cream! That would have to be the best! I really enjoyed your video!

Thank you for the video and instructions. This brought back many memories of my mother’s cooking/baking. It was always a treat when we got served a breakfast of Chocolate Gravy. Mother’s was more of a pudding poured onto a plate - warm and delicious. I can still remember eating it. I never knew it was called gravy. I just called it warm chocolate pudding. It was so good. Thanks for the memories!

[@saner6888]

As soon as you said easy, I thought that’s my kind of recipe! I for sure will try all 3😋 Thank you🧡I see blueberry hand pies in my future!!🫐

[@nicolemoutia5836]

I was so greedy, after making your biscuits I ate 2 of them with butter and jam - it was after dinner!!!! so good and so easy to make - I have 4 left that I will give to Valerie (my daughter) tomorrow -thank you very much Tipper, your explanation was so easy to follow - Au revoir

[@akm12398]

I found this video incredibly relaxing and therapeutic. It was so enjoyable to watch you work with the dough.. Thank you so much. This was such a special video! Loved all the recipes.

[@karenbuzintx1367]

Mama would give me the little left over bit of dough and I would make it into little 'biscuits' and push them into a little metal toy pan i had and put them in the oven. You can imagine in that thin little pan by the time I was done with them they were hard little things but Daddy ate them anyway for me. He ate all my tries at learning to cook. Poor Daddy. I love those cheese biscuits too. I will have to try making them. 👍Mama used biscuit dough to make her dumplins too. Great video! I can see I will be making biscuits in the morning. Yall have a good weekend. One more week !!

[@danipeters5279]

I couldn't make biscuits like my mom either. I watched your earlier video when you talked about your biscuits and I tried your easy recipe and that's how I make my biscuits now! So good!! I'm definitely going to try the cheese and garlic biscuits and the hand pies too!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Wonderful! 😀

[@MicaelaShepherd]

Your love for traditions and family brings so much joy to me.

[@tsmith6250]

I first made these biscuits after your previous video and they are so good! Love seeing the variations and can't wait to try them. I look so forward to all of your cooking videos.

[@suemyers7685]

So nice to see you use same recipe for all your beautiful baked items. Yum! I like Red lobster biscuits, too. May have to try this easy recipe for them. Thank you, Tipper

[@rld1278]

Those cheddar biscuits were delicious! But I remember the hush puppies they used to make before those and was so disappointed when they made the switch! Wish I had a recipe for those too! As a kid red lobster was our yearly dinner out growing up after income tax refunds came, otherwise we never ate out.

[@andrewulrich6612]

I'll have to ask my mother but I think my grandmother made a quick pepperoni biscuit with her biscuit dough. She did something to make the biscuit a bit tougher though. Folding the dough over a couple slices of pepperoni. She had a actual yeast dough pepperoni roll too. She had several quick versions of several things. I remember her making quick stuff when lots of family came to visit. Longer versions when there were smaller groups to feed.

[@cathyrichmond6178]

Tipper thanks for reminding me about Red Lobster cheesy garlic biscuits. I used to make them all the time. My former MIL used to make something similar to the baked hand pies. She used butter, sugar and cinnamon. Once they were done she made a liquid to pour over them using milk, sugar and cinnamon. She cooked it on the stove until it thickened slightly. They were her family's favorite. She called them butter rolls. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Yum those sound great 😀
