Directions
Southern Biscuits and Gravy,A dear and very close friend of mine who lives in Australia asked me about southern biscuits and gravy for breakfast. It is RARE that I make this because it’s artery clogging as HECK so if you’re steadfastly health conscious…forget it!! It is an old southern tradition …like grits. So if you only do it once every 5 years (haha) you’re probably safe from a coronary. It’s out of this world good! For those who don’t know, biscuits and gravy is really more like biscuits, sausage and gravy. Every southern cook adds her/his own twist to it …like throwing in sugar and vanilla isn’t the norm–it’s just the way I do it — once every 5 years or more!,I add Sage and Crushed Red Pepper to the sausage gravy to give it more depth.,Oh my goodness this is the best. I only made the gravy part but it is the best.
