Need Recipe For Biscuts and Gravy

[TennShad]

I would like to hear some good recipes for some biscuits and gravy.

Meee too!

I don't measure anything but heres how I make it..

I fry up some bacon or sausage and leave several TBSP of grease in the pan for gravy. I then add flour until it makes a thick paste and turns brown. Add milk to desired thickness and stir stir stir.

For the biscuits put some self rising flour into a bowl, add some Crisco (about a TBSP) sift together and add buttermilk until it's thick (a little more than the consistency of cake batter). Form into a ball and coat with flour from there you can just sit it on a pan and bake it (we call that ho cake in the south,haha!) or you can roll it out and cut it out into biscuits. Bake until brown and there ya go.

Cool I will give it a try! Us northerners have nothing like this around here and I love them! Anything you can recomend for adding more flavor to the gravy or will the grease do enough?

Thanks for the recipe. I'll give it a try tomorrow morning.

The grease is enough but I always add some salt and pepper. My dad sometimes breaks little bits of sausage up and puts it in there with the gravy.

Mine is basically the same ingredients as Brandy's, but just made different...I usually cook it at work for 8 for breakfast, so you may need a smaller recipe...and like her, I don't measure anything....

2 pounds fresh roll sausage...one hot, one regular...brown in black iron pot and leave in pot...mix milk and flour in bowl with whisk...very disproportionate amount of milk to flour...not much flour needed...add to pot...stir almost constantly....if pot is hot, it will thicken almost instantly...if not, it will take a while...once hot, if not to desired thickness, add additional flour by first adding to small amount of milk in bowl and whisking again......if not, it will clump....if too thick, add milk...but whatever you do, be quick about it...it can clump....

simmer for at least 20-25 minutes...if not, you will taste a flour taste....add salt and pepper........alot more salt than you think you need....the flour will mask it

spoon over whatever is your favorite biscuit...........but not flaky.....
