Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Pour flour into bowl and create a "well" in the center.
- 2. Grate butter into the "well" and add the milk
- 3. Using your hand, meld the flour into the milk and butter mixture until well combined and forms a workable ball. Pinch off enough to form a palm sized ball, rolling in your hands only enough to form another ball. (Working too much with the dough will make a hard dry biscuit). Lay in pan and pat down to biscuit size. Place a pat of butter on each biscuit. Continue until all of the dough is used.
- 4. Bake for 10 minutes then turn on broiler to brown the top. This only takes a minute or two, be careful not to burn.
- 5. While biscuits are baking, Melt butter in large 10" pan, being careful not to burn.
- 6. Add flour and make a rue stiring constantly so as not to burn. I cook on med-high setting.
- 7. Add milk until desired consistency, stirring constantly. Once you have desired consistency turn heat setting to low and add salt and pepper to taste.
