"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Directions:
Directions:
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt and baking soda; cut in shortening. Knead in buttermilk. (The dough will be sticky, but don't add any extra flour; biscuits will not be as light and fluffy.) Roll out and cut with a biscuit cutter, place biscuits on a greased baking sheet with sides just touching. Brush with butter

Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes until the tops and bottoms are light brown.

Meanwhile, for gravy, peel and cut tomatoes into a bowl, reserving the juice. In a saucepan, melt butter; add flour and stir until browned. Gradually add water. Stir in tomatoes and juice. Add milk, salt and pepper; simmer for 15 minutes. Serve over hot biscuits.
