I used this recipe with 2 differences, and it worked out great: 1) I used canola oil instead of shortening, and store it in a zip lock in the freezer, and 2) I used 1/2 white and 1/2 wheat flour.

I substituted butter (yes, I know it's not as healthy as some other alternatives, but I do know that it's not a transfat) and will simply store this in the refrigerator.

Following this recipe produced a mix that turned out biscuits just like Bisquick. I also substituted the mix in another "unfried chicken" recipe and it was delicious. This is a keeper. Thank you!

Shamok: lard doesn't go bad and, if vaccum sealed it should store near indefinately - air is necessary for samonila to develop.

No review but a quick question. Can this mix be stored in vacuum sealed canning jars and how long would it last on the shelf? I am putting back food stuffs for hard times and I am trying to make all the mixes I can that will be shelf stable for extended periods of time.

Why do you use shortening? It is a trans fat and definitely not good for your health.
CDKitchen Note: Shortening can be stored at room temperature in solid form. Other ingredients would not keep their form (ie: melt) or could go rancid.
