Ingredients

1 Packet Active Dry Yeast I used Rapid Rise
2 Tbsp Warm Water between 105°- 115°
5 1/4 Cups All purpose flour
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
1 Tsp Baking Soda
1 1/2 Tsp Salt I used Pink Himalyan
1/4 Cup Sugar, white
1 Cup Solid Vegetable Shortening Crisco
3 Cup Buttermilk, Low Fat You can used full fat, if you desire
Melted butter For brushing the tops once baked

Instructions

Dissolve the yeast in water. Set aside.
Stir all dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
Using a pastry blender (or cutter), cut the shortening into the flour. Should look like little chunks throughout. Add the buttermilk and yeast mixture and stir/mix with a wooden spoon until the dough sticks together.
Dough will be somewhat wet. Move to a heavily floured surface and knead for about 30 seconds.
Move the dough to a greased bowl and cover with plastic. Refrigerate overnight.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator.
Place on heavily floured surface. Remove however much dough you need, if you are not making the full batch. Return the remaining dough to the refrigerator.
Roll dough out to about 1/2" thick. Using a biscuit cutter, cut into the dough. Repeat this process until all the dough has been used.
Place rolls on a greased baking sheet. They can touch. Cover with a towel and allow to rise another 30 minutes.
Bake rolls @ 400°, for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Brush with melted butter after removing from oven. Serve hot.

Notes

Place any leftover rolls in a plastic baggie. Will stay fresh up to 2 days.
