1
Preheat the oven to 425.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large skillet, cook the bacon over moderate heat until crisp, about 7 minutes.

Drain the bacon on paper towels and finely chop it.
5
In a large bowl, whisk the 4 1/2 cups of flour with the baking powder, sugar, kosher salt and baking soda.
6
Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in the butter until it is the size of small peas.
7
Stir in the buttermilk, scallions and chopped bacon just until incorporated.
8
Scrape the dough out onto a floured work surface and knead it gently just until it comes together.

Using a floured rolling pin, roll the biscuit dough out to a 1/2-inch thickness.
10
Using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter, stamp out 16 rounds of dough.
11
Gently gather the scraps to form 2 or 3 more biscuits.

Place the biscuits on the baking sheet and bake for about 25 minutes, until they are well-risen and golden brown; turn the baking sheet once halfway through baking.

In a small bowl, thoroughly blend the unsalted butter with the sorghum syrup and season with salt.
