Well, now they can finally make ’em themselves with this recipe, and so can you. We had adult volunteers asking for months about another batch of biscuits. I’m telling y’all there’s just something about cooking over an open fire and hot coals that just makes everything taste better. The second was a children’s church camp-out in Palo Duro Canyon State Park where we cooked breakfast over an open fire and employed that dutch oven cooking I’d learned at the Folk Festival to feed all our campers. It was a bit overwhelming to make such a large batch of biscuits, but so thrilling to have people wait around to enjoy Grandma’s recipe cooked in an old-fashioned way. One was when I volunteered for the General Sam Houston Folk Festival where I was assigned to help with the dutch oven cooking. Two of my favorite memories of baking this recipe included a campfire. Since then, I’ve made it so many times I don’t measure the ingredients anymore either.
Considering Grandma Dixon didn’t measure her ingredients and neither does Mama, it took my sister moving out and asking for instructions for this quick biscuit recipe to be written down. My great-grandmother Alpha Dixon taught this homemade drop biscuit recipe to my mother, who passed it on to her daughters, and I’m so glad she did.
