Dolly Parton and Rachel Parton George · Good Lookin' Cookin'

We admit it — we love the way butter or some sort of grease makes food taste, especially bacon grease. That’s why we use it to cook up country ham. I use it more than Rachel, so I have people save their bacon grease for me. I tell them, “Don’t throw away your bacon grease!” And when somebody says, “How do you keep your skin looking so good?” I tell them, “Bacon grease . . . from the inside out!” This is one of my favorite recipes from many years ago, and it is still a fantastic biscuit! Also, these are so easy to start in the food processor, which I often use to save time. If you don’t have one, you can also mix your dry ingredients and cut in your shortening and butter by hand like Mama used to. She was so good at cooking and making biscuits that she could just work the dough by hand and before you knew it, the whole pan would be coming out of the oven!
