We actually do have some recipes that call for bacon fat, Phillip. Decadent Bacon Brownies, anyone? Bacon fat isn't typically included as an option for the fat in recipes mostly because of convenience and the volume that's required. If you find yourself cooking lots of bacon and acquiring enough to bake with, then you're welcome to replace it for about half of the fat in a biscuit recipe knowing that the flavor may be intensely bacon-y (and potentially salty depending on the kind of bacon you use). The texture will be more like the lard and coconut oil biscuits; a bit softer and less craggly. You might like it! Kye@KAF
