Steps:
- 1. Put the skillet in the oven and preheat to 375 degrees.
- 2. Combine the dry ingredients except for the baking soda in a bowl.
- 3. In another bowl, mix the buttermilk and the baking soda. Set aside.

- 5. When the oven is preheated, toss the lard into the skillet and let it melt.
- 6. Meanwhile, pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix in as few strokes as it takes to just make the dough come together.
- 7. Pull the skillet out of the oven, swirling to get the butter covering the bottom and up the sides of the skillet. Pour the batter immediately into the pan, smoothing the top, then back into the oven for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown and pulled away from the sides of the pan. Turn out onto a cutting board, cut into wedges and serve.
