Mix Dough. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 450F degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Pulse flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in food processor until combined. Add chilled butter and shortening and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Knead Dough. Transfer flour mixture to large bowl. Stir in buttermilk until combined. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead briefly, 8 to 10 times, to form smooth, cohesive ball. Roll dough into 9-inch circle, about 3/4 inch thick.
Cut Biscuits. Using 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter dipped in flour, cut out rounds and arrange upside down on prepared baking sheet. Gather remaining dough and pat gently into 3/4 inch thick circle. Cut rounds from dough and transfer to baking sheet.
Bake Biscuits. Bake until biscuits begin to rise, about 5 minutes, then rotate pan and reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes more. Transfer to wire rack and let cool 5 minutes. Serve warm.
Make ahead. Cut rounds can be refrigerated, covered with plastic wrap for 1 day. To finish, heat oven to 450 degrees and proceed with baking step.
