   1      c             Wheat germ
   2      c             Cracked wheat
     3/4  c             Wheat bran
     3/4  c             Oatmeal
     3/4  c             Cheddar cheese -- grated
   3      c             Whole wheat flour (approximate)
                        Topping:
   1      c             Beef broth
     1/2  ts            Garlic powder
   3      tb            Oil

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl,
combine beef broth, milk, honey, egg, bacon grease or margarine, and
salt. Add yeast/water mixture and mix well. Stir in flour, corn meal,
wheat germ, cracked wheat, wheat bran, oatmeal, and cheese. Add whole
wheat flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Knead in the final amounts of flour by hand to make a stiff dough.
Continue to knead for 4 to 5 minutes. Pat or roll to 1/2" thickness.
Cut into bone shapes and place on a greased baking sheet. Cover
lightly and let set (rise) for 30 minutes. Bake in a 350°F oven for
45 minutes or until lightly browned on bottom. Prepare topping during
last few minutes. Turn off oven heat. Remove biscuits from oven.
Immediately dip biscuits in topping. Return them to oven and leave
biscuits in oven for several hours or overnight.
