I cheat a bit. I make my Alabama grandmother's "Hardee's Biscuits" recipe - mix up the dry, cut in the shortening, then throw it in the freezer until I want biscuits. I then measure it out, add cool buttermilk, cut and immediately bake. I hadn't thought to do a control. Once this heat wave ends I'll have to find time to make some good ol' fashioned southern biscuits and compare to your delish-looking recipe!
