200g cold beef dripping, broken into pieces
200ml ice cold water

baking stone

Method

In a food processor, blitz the dripping and flour together until there are no lumps. Add the cold butter and continue to mix until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.
Add the iced water gradually and keep mixing until you start to get a dough. Roll it into a sausage, wrap tightly in clingfilm and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
