In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
Add the buttermilk to the dry ingredients stirring until combined.
Dollop batter into 12 biscuits on a lined baking sheet or two. You want to ensure there is room for them to spread.
Bake in a 350°F for 20 minutes until lightly browned.
Allow to cool completely. We sometimes fry the biscuits up the next day.
Cut the biscuits in half.
In a frying pan heat the bacon fat on medium heat. Add soda bread cut side down to the frying pan. We only do about 4 pieces at a time to prevent overcrowding. Adding too many pieces at a time will lower the temperature of the fat.
Flip the soda bread once the first side is nice and brown. Continue to fry the second side until it to is brown. Remove and place on a paper towel to absorb any excess fat.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper, top it with ketchup and Worcestershire sauce, or jam! Whichever you prefer and enjoy!
