I wish I could just set you down to a big plate of biscuits and gravy and it would all be clear. Seriously though, in differnt parts of the US, the type of gravy may differ, but in the South(and I say that meaning we're the best part of the country)gravy served at breakfast is made from milk, flour, and some sort of grease-usually bacon or sausage. Then it's seasoned to taste with salt and pepper and applied GENEROUSLY over the top of what we call biscuits. I don't really know how to explain that except that it "shore ain't no cookie." Anyways, the quick explanation is this-take about 8 or 10 tbs of grease(sausage or bacon) and warm it up on low heat in a skillet, then add flour till it absorbs the grease and form a loose paste. Salt and pepper it some and slowly let it cook a bit. This is where the flavor comes from. Just before you think it may burn, add a couple cups of milk and continue to stir and cook slowly. After a while it will for a semi thick, brown/gray concotion of deliciousness. Pour this over the dough things we call biscuits and voila! You are now fit to fly the stainless banner. Good luck and give her a try. You could also serve it over toasted white bread in a pinch, cause we all know that the gravy is the important part.Hillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09008726043561193992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24330634.post-3184988853340231952012-04-16T17:22:36.101-05:002012-04-16T17:22:36.101-05:00Love biscuits and gravy.

Gravy is a brown liquid served with roast meat, the juices of which form the basis of the gravy.<br />As George Bernard Shaw once commented, "America and Britain, two countries separated by a common language".selsey.stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12531315051208210724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24330634.post-86383968641736350752012-04-13T13:31:01.864-05:002012-04-13T13:31:01.864-05:00Yum!
