I made some last week and I add red onion and green peppers for the vitamins.

I add whole wheat flour to some water and mix well so it won't be lumpy when added to the milk.

The sausage must be spicy.

Yum.

My family is not averse to the biscuits and gravy meal for lunch or dinner.

Restaurant we used to go to occasionally had a dish they called a "Country Bowl," IIRC. IIRC, the bowl was lined with an omelette, filled with hash brown potatoes, then smothered in biscuit gravy? Something like that.

They actually had passable biscuit gravy.

Love ‘em, but honestly don’t have ‘em very often. I’ve still got a recipe that I saved from Rolan a couple years back; hate to admit I haven’t made it yet

yeah sometimes I'll fry up a couple of eggs and throw them on top of the biscuits and gravy. damn thats good.

I’ve loved biscuits and gravy all my life, but I am a “team bacon grease gravy” girl, much more so than sausage gravy. Fry up your bacon and remove from pan. Make a nice brown roux with flour in the bacon grease, add milk and cook to desired thickness. You can cheat and make mighty fine crunchy crusty biscuits for gravy by subbing whipping cream for milk in biscuit mix and heating butter in the oven in the pan before placing your biscuits in it and baking.

Who doesn't like biscuits and gravy?

Love me some with a egg over easy on each half with several dashes of Tabasco . Even Uncle Sams version (SOS) or (chipped beef on toast) was on my breakfast plate quiet often. ........................................... drill sgt.

If you want to raise the bar a little bit , Remove the stuffing from a link of Boudin and put that in your gravy .

This is something I have never cooked. Can you give me a recipe, or at least a rough idea of proportions for ingredients?

Fry a pound of sausage until it crumbles. Mix up about 1/4 cup flour and a cup (or so) of whole milk. Pour the mixture into the sausage. Add more milk until it looks right. Put it on biscuits.

No, no, no!!

Choose a pound of sausage to your liking (the family prefers mild over hot, but this is your choice).

Crumble and fry in cast iron skillet. When browned, sprinkle 4 to 5 tablespoons of flour over the sausage being sure to get all of the grease incorporated and there is no white flour spots anywhere in the skillet. Stir around for another minute or two to be sure it's all incorporated before you start to add your milk. Probably 4 or 5 cups of milk, added slowly as you stir. Continue stirring and simmering until it's nice and thick. Remember you can always add more milk, but can't take it away if you add too much. Salt and pepper and you're ready to serve over some nice fluffy biscuits.

I prefer Redeye Gravy with my Cathead biscuits.

Even better with some eggs on top.

I’m still shocked that most fast food places in Michigan do not sell biscuits and gravy.

Would probably be relatively tasteless. Even the sit-down restaurants that have it on the menu usually get it wrong.

Was talking to a waitress at a place at which we used to stop on the way to the boat. I'd order their biscuits and gravy, but it wasn't sausage gravy. Watching the cook at the grill waste sausage drippings while sitting at the counter one day, I asked the waitress "Why don't y'all save those sausage drippings for your biscuit gravy?" "I have no idea," she replied, shaking her head.

damnit that looks good!!!!!!!!!!!!
