Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the chilled butter and rub the mixture together with your fingers until pea sized crumbles form.
Stir the buttermilk in with a fork until just combined.

Bake at 425º for 25 minutes, until golden brown.

Place the bacon in saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat renders.
