I haven't had steak and eggs for breakfast in a long time. Stuff is good, though.

Wondering if it is just me or who likes what gravy. I been making this lately. Family seems to enjoy it.

Mom added some sausage the other day.. it was also awesome.
Is that the same as "white gravy"? It's the only term I've ever heard referring to white flour and milk-based gravy.

I like a good white sausage or hamburger gravy with biscuits. Or on a chicken-fried streak. But, aside from those two things, I prefer dark gravy. But biscuits and chicken-fried steak aside, I don't even eat much gravy at all (am one of the few who doesn't douse mashed-potatoes with it; I'll pour maybe a tsp at best).

It's regional, too. Pacific Northwesterners as a mass much prefer dark gravy. My first husband was a Texan who used white gravy for everything, and when we moved to Oregon he couldn't believe the change in people's tastes.

It's only called gravy because of the recipe -- fat, flour, and liquid. Of course, that's the recipe for a bechamel as well, the basis for some of the finest sauces ever created, many of which can be and are served at breakfast.

Biscuits and gravy are the best. Sausage or bacon added and pepper..............yum, yum. When we were kids, no biscuits? Tear up bread and go for it. Moderation, I keep telling myself.

Oh, if you use bisquick, I love the stuff..great pancakes, and bisquick makes the best gravy!!!

Biscuits with anything on top is good for breakfast.

When I was a teen, my Mom would make a large sunday breakfasts. I would sleep late to wake to cold buttermilk biscuits and saved leftovers on the stove top. I love cold refried beans smeard on a biscuit topped with pieces of thick cut slab bacon...mmmmm

Oh, Yes. A very occasional guilty pleasure, now that I workout!

You Rang.....

Love Biscuits and Gravy, Yum
Love Biscuits and Syrup, Yum

Poor man's food that stick to your ribs. (Breakfast, lunch, and dinner)

(When we didn't have eggs for the Bisquick pancakes, mayonnaise was used. Yuck, not a good substitute.)
