A ham biscuit is a sandwich formed with a biscuit wrapped around a slice of 
ham.  In my extended paternal family, (Georgia and Alabama) it was home baked 
cat-head biscuits and smoked or sugar cured ham.  In my in-laws family it was 
small soda biscuits and salt cured ham.  At a pot luck in Cajun country where 
my maternal extended family lived, I often saw sugar or pepper cured ham 
wrapped in a light, yeasty dough similar to croissant.
