It’s not though, the consistency is different. These bitches are buttery and flakey, and savory. Closer to a crescent roll if you’re familliar. Scones are great too and all but ime they have a different consistency entirely and aim for sweet instead of savory.
It’s different than a scone, which is dense. Southern USA has a special kind of flour we use when we make our biscuits that has lower protein and gluten content. It makes for a much softer dough, and a softer end result.
I want desperately to leave my country and go to another one, bring some of our soft red winter wheat seeds with me, and begin making southern (US) style biscuits for the masses somewhere else. I’d make biscuits n gravy and I’d share them with the world.
If you ever come through West Virginia, don’t miss Tudor’s Biscuit World. They’re literally everywhere. I have had so many home made southern style soul food biscuits in my life but nothing beats Tudor’s. The biscuits and gravy are top notch but you’ll be doing yourself wrong if you don’t get a sandwich. Some people get a side of gravy to dip the sandwich.
Looks like what we call a scone. Whatever name you use, they’re delicious.

But yeah all listed pastries are delicious!
American scones are very sweet compared to what they make in Britain. They will put sweet cream or jam on them to sweeten them up.
American Southern style biscuits are unlike anything made in the UK to my knowledge. There’s just no comparison.
