You never watched old Roy Rogers shows? Or any of a lot of B-Westerns?

George "Gabby" Hayes - "American character actor, the most famous of 
Western-movie sidekicks of the 1930s and 1940s. He was born May 7, 1885, 
the third of seven children, in the Hayes Hotel (owned by his father) in 
the tiny hamlet of Stannards, New York, on the outskirts of Wellsville, 
New York." http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0371025/bio

He was best known as an irascible, toothless older dude. (sounds a lot 
like what I will be when I get the last of those naturals yanked). He 
made a lot of money with his teeth out. And in the few roles in which he 
had his China Clippers in - he was nearly unrecognisable. A ploy which 
was used in one of his Gene Autry flicks (he was Autry's side-kick 
before Pat Buttram) when he needed to go under cover to spy on the 
baddies. So, they dressed him in a suit and he put his teeth in and was 
unrecognisable ... really.

RH> RH>  DD> Good luck. Rendered leaf lard is the preferred lard for
RH> RH>  DD> pastry - but, lard can be rendered from fatback/salt pork.
RH> RH>  DD> Sort of like kidney suet is the preferred beef fat - but
RH> RH>  DD> any beef fat can be rendered.

RH>  DD> Well, it's not as highly processed as the stuff down the
RH>  DD> stupormarkup, is it?

RH> Nope, still haven't used it yet, trying to decide on what kind of a

RH> & ends of turkey and frozen veggies we've got on hand.

I was at the semi-warehouse store across the street to pick up some El 
Pato tomato sauce for something I am making later in the week. And there 
in the Mexican aisle among the La Costena sauces, La Preferida chilies, 
etc. was a stack of 2 1/2 kg (5 lb) pails of lard. Someone in the buying 
department knows his Mexican grub - or is Hispanic his own self.  Bv)=

MMMMM

Somehow I knew you'd not want to use white flour.  Bv)=  OTOH, it 
doesn't bother me on way or the other. I've made that recipe without the 
sugar and it's not as good to my taster. And I generally use buttermilk 
if I have it to hand as the liquid in the first recipe.

ENJOY!!!
