5 cups flour
2 TBS plus 2 tsp baking powder
2 TBS sugar
2 tsp salt
3 and 1/2 cups milk
2 TBS lemon juice
2 sticks butter
Combine all dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
Add in milk and lemon juice. Stir until just combined (it doesn't have to be lump free); over stirring can change the texture.
Pour melted butter into a deep 9X13 pan and top with your biscuit batter. Spread it out evenly and then "cut" your biscuits allowing the butter to flow into the cuts.
Please note that as the biscuits rise, the butter will be pushed out of a shallow pan and your kitchen will fill with smoke!
Bake at 450* until the tops are golden brown, about 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow the biscuits to soak up any butter liquid that remains.
