Mmmm...love biscuits and gravy! Looks a lot like how Ma-maw made biscuits back in the day (and biscuits went with every kind of breakfast...eggs, bacon, sausage, gravy, jelly, syrup, grits). She didn't use oil, she used good ol' lard. She always made more biscuits than anyone could eat for one meal. As she never believed in serving leftovers, the dogs got the extra ones. I might add, they were the best-fed dogs in Lewis County, Tennessee. Thanks for the video!

"Working it less, tastes the best". My grandmother use to tell me this saying when she was making her biscuits and I never understood it until I got older. Over-working the doe will give you dense heavy biscuits that aren't desirable for anything but dumplings.

You can step that sausage gravy up a notch and add some scrambled or cut up boiled eggs. Go even further and pour it on a pizza crust and top it with a lot of cheese and make you a breakfast pizza.
Im from philly, though, I was stationed at Ft. Bragg for 5 years. The first time I ever had this was when I was at Fayetteville. I fell in love. My momma was from rural Tennessee but never made it, don't know why.
I’m in Wyoming and B and G is my favorite Sunday breakfast. Never been to Louisiana but I like Creole seasoning in mine. A nice heat when it’s below zero in the windy winters up here. It gave me a little validation for this non southerner to see I have been doing my gravy right all these years. Love this channel.

If you get lazy like I do sometimes(more times than not) I just buy a can of Libby's sausage gravy and a bag of Mary B's frozen buttermilk biscuits and it's not a bad alternative to homemade. Libby's sausage gravy just needs to be loosened up a bit with either water or milk, and I add a lot of black pepper because I like it that way.

That sausage and gravy looks delicious. I’ve never seen biscuits made the way you made them. Of course, my mom never used self-rising flour. She added her own baking powder and salt. She was old fashioned like that. She would then mix her Crisco into the flour until it was crumbly, then the buttermilk. Now, I’m going to start doing it your way. I learn something new every day 😋👍👍

It's the same either way. The only thing is that you're paying a little extra for the manufacturer to add the leavening ingredients for you. The benefit though is that it is perfectly distributed and sifted, so you don't get uneven results like you might if it isn't mixed perfectly evenly.

Years ago, and I mean really years ago, we did homemade from scratch biscuits just like this. And when we got older and lazier, we discovered frozen Pillsbury Grands and we ain't looked back. And if you're really in a hurry, toast can be substituted for the biscuits. The gravy works good on skillet potatoes too. Ask me how I know.

Your biscuits will rise better if they're actually touching when you start them. No idea why, but it's true. Also, in place of some of your salt, try a chicken bullion cube or even better, some Better than Bullion (chicken). Adds a ton of rich flavor.
@thehungryhussey

You’re right, if they touch they’ll rise more,
I was concerned for your gravy when you put your sausage straight on the griddle top! I was like whoops he gonna need somethin, somethin for the rue… lol! Something’s just aren’t made for the griddle. I want all my sausage grease for my gravy. But I will say I was impressed with the making of biscuits on the griddle. My all time favorite breakfast!Except you were missing a couple eggs over medium on those biscuits before the gravy!!!
@thehungryhussey
8 ай бұрын
So the reason I like to do it all on the griddle is to appeal to those folks that might only have this as their cooking device as well as campers, etc. Showing the versatility. Even if I'd had that sausage in a pan, it wouldn't have had enough fat and I'd have to supplement.

I just started using a couple of diced thick sliced sea salt and pepper bacon before starting the sausage. I found that gives more than enough fat for the roux and gives that wonderful meat candy flavor to the gravy.
