2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3
Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
4
Pour in the milk and stir just until you have a soft dough. Add a bit more milk if needed. Do not overmix or the biscuits will be tough.
5
Tip the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead with floured hands until it comes together. Pat into a disk about 1/2” thick. Flour a round cookie or biscuit cutter and cut (don't twist the cutter) into biscuits. Transfer to an ungreased cookie sheet, preferably one that's air-insulated. Reroll the dough scraps. (Note: Biscuits from rerolled dough won't be quite as tender.)
6
Put the baking sheet on the grill grate and bake the biscuits until risen and golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes, depending on how hot your grill is.
