Southern biscuits walk the line of being both tender and flaky. By combining white flour, butter, and a generous amount of buttermilk, the dough is first stirred together into a sticky mass. Then this dough is folded onto itself into a smooth dough - this step is where the magic can happen.

Working in his uncle's flour mill, Pillsbury realized that he could make the flour milling process more efficient by using steel rollers rather than buhr stones to mill the grain into flour. In 1872, he convinced his uncle and his father to join his company, which he called Charles A. Pillsbury & Co.

Founding and early development. "C.A. Pillsbury and Company" was founded in 1869 by Charles Alfred Pillsbury and his uncle John S. Pillsbury. The company was second in the United States (after Washburn-Crosby) to use steel rollers for processing grain.

So there you have it: Southern biscuits have more butter and acidity (from the buttermilk), making them extra fluffy and flaky. While scones rely on richer, denser, ingredients like heavy cream and eggs to get a sturdy, yet crumbly, pastry.
