 Set the oven @ 450ºF/232ºC.

 In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking
 soda and salt. Add the tallow and cut into the dry
 ingredients using a pastry cutter or fork (you can also
 pulse it with a food processor) until it resembles
 coarse crumbs. Add the cold buttermilk and stir it until
 just barely combined (a few little lumps are fine), be
 careful not to over-stir. (If adding any herbs or
 cheese, add them in with the buttermilk.) The dough will
 be fairly wet, this is normal.

 Flour a space on your counter or table and turn the
 dough out onto the surface, using floured hands, very
 gently pat the dough until it's uniformly 1" thick.
 Gently fold the dough in half, turn it 90 degrees, then
 fold it in half again. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap
 and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

 Back on your floured surface, gently pat out the dough
 to 1" thick again and use a 3" round biscuit cutter
 (lightly floured) to cut out rounds, pressing straight
 down and pulling straight up without twisting or
 wiggling the cutter. No biscuit cutter? A washed soup
 can or drinking glass will work in a pinch too. Gather
 up the scraps, gently knead them together and pat the
 dough out to 1 thickness. Cut out the remaining
 rounds.

 Place the biscuits on a lined sheet pan and bake for
 about 12 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown.
 Brush the hot biscuits with butter (the biscuits will
 readily absorb it) and serve the biscuits immediately
 while warm.

 TWEAKS (make it your own): Fresh herbs or shredded
 cheese make for a great addition to change things up
 some.
