When I was a child my dad was a minister and we would go to different homes for Sunday dinners after church. There was a lady & her brother I will never forget. Had no electricity, running water, refrigerator, indoor bath. Had outhouse in back field with cows. We would walk down to the creek to get water and she would keep the milk, butter in the creek to keep cold. Miss Lizzie would make biscuits for us to eat. OMG, they were the best. She would put butter on them & give us molasses or honey with them. Watching you make biscuits bring back so many memories. So amazing, thank you.
Chocolate Gravy is my favorite.. it was my greatest memory of my granny.. we got to stay All night on Friday nights and Saturday mornings our treat was Big Biscuits and Chocolate Gravy.. 😍😍😍
My grandma always made Chocolate gravy on Sunday. She passed away before I could get her recipe. Bless your heart for sharing this. I can't wait to try and make my Grandmas gravy. I've been canning all day and watching your videos, while doing so. You're video of grandmas canned sauerkraut (I just finished canning this recipe) you gave me a flashback of canning with my grandma. God bless, Thank you so much.
Oh my goodness. My mom would make us this whenever she squeezed a few more quarters out of the budget. Home made biscuits and chocolate gravy. There wasn't a peep at the table, just huge grins, messy hands faces, and finishing it up with a cup of milk and looking at my mom while she was looking at us. I might have been a little kid, but I could see what she was feeling and thinking as her eyes met mine. Now I'm sitting here crying, part good tears for the good memories, and the other tears, are sad ones for all the pain she dealt with, with my father, and then later as she struggled to take care of the 5 of us kids on her own. We were living in Chicago, but she was born and raised in Cleveland, Tn., (I was born there also, but went back home to Chicago when my mom was able..my father was of no help, so she went "home" to have me and get help with the three older kids). Anyway..that was a long time ago. I turned 65 in March, and whenever a bad memory pops up, I replace it with two good ones. Thank you for sharing 'all of this' with all of us. 😊✌💕🙏
I absolutely love your channel you cook exactly how my mother and grandmother do. I love your personality and style your home is adorable I like the farm house antique look. That’s how I have my home decorated. My mom always made biscuits with chocolate gravy. We still make it to this day. My mom and grandma taught me how to can. I’m always canning and stocking my pantry. Keep up the good work my friend.
My mum cooked on a wood stove well into the 50's and that stove is still in the old house up on the hill where they owned their land not far north of the border with North Dakota in Manitoba, Canada. It was a big old Majestic brand and she cooked on it winter and summer . They got power some time in the late '30s/early 40's, but just enough for a few lights and the radio that became their primary source of entertainment through the war and into the 50's. I remember her telling me how it was to cook on and how she got to know how much wood to use to get the the temp. right for her bread and baking. There was not thermometer on her cook stove and she new by holding her hand over the top when it was right. Thanks so much for sharing this.
This brings back sweet memories. My Granny that raised me made chocolate gravy for us for breakfast often. She got up every morning and made sausage, biscuits and gravy and eggs for my grandpa and often chocolate gravy for us kids.
Lost my Mom when I was 7. My aunt raised me along with her ❤️ 4 girls and she did the same for us. Then she put the leftover chocolate gravy in the fridge, made a good tasting pudding for dessert.
My grandpa used to make us German pancakes and my grandma made us oatmeal with raisins, butter, brown sugar, chocolate chips and cold milk on top. Those were the days...4 sure!!!
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any assistance you can give me!
I grew up eating biscuits and chocolate gravy almost everyday before school. It is still one of my favorite things to make for my grandkids, they love it too! 🙂🙂🧚🏼♀️
My grandmother still makes biscuits and chocolate gravy like this. She migrated from booger hollow ( bullfrog valley) Arkansas in the 1940s to Arizona to pick oranges. She's 89. Her childhood recipes became my childhood memories and I'm passing it on too. ❤️love following your channel.
I first heard of chocolate gravy when I went with my husband to Arkansas and stayed with grampa and grama beaver in the hills, over looking beaver lake. What a beautiful place, wonderful , God fearing family.i miss them, they've been gone for a very long time now, as we are now growing old. Sweet memories..thank you !!
My mother used to cook breakfast for us every morning before school and this was always one of our favorites. We liked the biscuits and lots of butter with the chocolate gravy too. Thanks for sharing!
@Bittersweet You are bringing back memories of my Mother fixing us a hot breakfast before school, even before she started working, she made sure we were properly nourished to start the day 💗😍💖❣
I was raised up on Chocolate Gravy.....So many people has never heard of it and doesn't understand concept.....LOL!!! My mom made it every Sunday Morning with homemade biscuits....eggs, bacon, sausage and regular white gravy! I will say my mom made it differently than you did, we didn't or don't start with a roux....and made with it with water....I am going to try it your way sometime....My mom would make a chocolate pudding out of the leftovers by adding eggs etc and then put a meringue topping on it....I so miss that pudding from the left overs....I so remember also my mom cooking beans in a wood stove they had kind of like that when I was a child....not all the time but every once in a while...in winter! This video sure brings back some wonderful memories and sure makes me miss my mom!! hugs, xoxo
My mom made for us kids every once and while for a treat.. she would put water in the big pot on the stove.. then mix her dry ingredients , then mix can milk into her dry ingredients… Then she would pour into the water… it was always so delicious… we also had homemade biscuits, fried eggs, fried potatoes and sausage or bacon with the chocolate gravy.. There was a lot of us kids so she had to make a lot … We grew up in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains in WV … kids at school had no idea what chocolate gravy was.. this was in the 90s …My mom grew up during the 50s and 60s … back in that time people made chocolate gravy and that kind of stuff… Mom was a really good cook too… I miss her cooking
I love chocolate gravy and biscuits. That blending fork was nice. Thanks for sharing. There is a lot of people that hasn’t heard of Chocolate gravy. Great looking cook stove.
My aunt would make this treat for us kids at breakfast time when we would visit her in Castlewood VA. We’d be so happy to get chocolate for breakfast. Brings back good memories. Thanks for sharing.
Yum! My little Mama made us chocolate gravy. She made her biscuits thin and her gravy was not extremely chocolate, just like yours. Looks delish! Love your channel!
I remember my grandma making chocolate gravy, and now it’s one of my son’s favorites. Grandma even used a wood stove, lots of good memories. Thank you. Most people I know haven’t ever heard of it.
Thank you both so very very very much...my parents are from West Virginia but I have never had chocolate gravy and always wanted to...our neighbor Miss.Helen and Mr. Jess always had chocolate gravy and biscuits, they too was from West Virginia... Miss them all!!! Thank you both so very much, y'all are greatly appreciated... Love you all!!! God bless each of you and your families and keep each of you and your families completely protected and safe always, Amen and Amen!!!!
Mr Brown, thank you so much for explaining how the wood cook stove works! It’s so big, and looks so complicated, but the way you explained makes it seem so simple and a beautiful way to cook and heat your home! Thank you both for your wonderful videos - they have provided me with such peace these days. May God keep blessing you and yours!!❤️
My folks were from Selmer, Tennessee and grew up eating something similar so naturally my siblings and I did, too. We make it with much more sugar, less flour and water instead of milk. We also don’t call it Chocolate Gravy. It’s just simply called Biscuits and Chocolate or Pancakes and Chocolate. So delicious! I never had syrup on my pancakes until I was practically grown! I’m 63 now and still make it periodically for a treat. However, it is a Christmas breakfast tradition with my children and their children. Precious family traditions. Thanks for the video. God bless y’all.
THANK YOU so much for sharing the chocolate gravy. My Mother cooked it for me growing up and I cooked it for my children But I’ve not made it in years. Now after watching your video I’m going to make some. Love watching all your videos!
When my grandparents moved from West Virginia to Baltimore, my grandmother told me her biscuits never tasted good again. She went from wood burning to gas and never got used to it through all the places and appliances she owned. We all loved her biscuits!! Funny!
My Dad was raised mammoth spring Arkansas and you and mr remind me of my Dad and his family and they are all gone but as a child I have fond memories of them
My Kinfolk in Missouri always makes this...myself being raised in Florida, has never had it...My Dad although raised on it, was never a fan of it and always made the Regular Milk Gravy or Sausage Gravy for us growing up...Those are my Comfort gravies...But, I think it’s time to give this Chocolate Gravy a go and see what I’ve been missing...Thank You!...✌️💜💋
Chocolate gravey was a thing my momma made for a family treat breakfast. She taught me how to make it before she died. I hve made it like she did. My grandchildren love it
My mom use to make this for me when I was little. I then made it for my children. They are all grown and still love it. Not a lot of people have heard of this great dish where we live.
My mom and grandma use to make chocolate gravy all the time. My Moms parents originaly came from Arbuckles Island. Came to Calif when my Mom was 2yrs. I will have to visit Ark someday. My great Grandpa had a bakery in Fort Smith and sold it for a pack of mules. Just a little history. Anyway cant wait to make some Chocolate gravy in honor of them and you Ms Lori for reminding me of it.
Momma Brown and Papa Brown, thank you soooo much!! Going back and thinking of all my childhood roots that I've forgotten. So sad that I did. But you see... There has been some tramatic that's hit my way when I was 18 years old. Lost both my parents at the same time. I remember growing up being fed this morning dish when we as a family went across the United States. It was a favorite of mine as a child. Thank you for bring thoughts back to mind. ❣️
This is how my Mom used to make chocolate gravy except she used water instead of milk. My sister and I made this this morning and it brought back so many memories. Thanks for sharing! I’ll be making this for my great grandchildren next week! 12:30 pm
I love that stove. It's gorgeous. I've always enjoyed cooking over fire and I'm sure the stove would make that easier. That is a wonderful recipe. I have to make it now.. lol thank you
I was raised on chocolate gravy and biscuits in Paragould. I make it still. My kids were raised on it. However, Mama made it with water and so I do too. That’s some good eats. Love your channel!
I'm 69 years old and just recently heard of chocolate gravy. After seeing it, I think I'll just stick to my carolina sausage white gravy. But at least now I've seen it and to each there on. Glad it's there for those who do love it.
My older sister used to make chocolate gravy all the time hers was a little thicker but oh how good it was and your brought back so many memories. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. Love watching your videos and listening to you and Mr. Brown .
What a beautiful stove! Makes me want to move where it gets cold to have one to cook on. Loved your gravy also! Hugs and love. I do have you on my Word Press Blog in Links I follow so more people can find you. You are still my very favorite UA-camr!
I just love your videos, your recipes, your philosophy... and I agree with you one-thousand-percent about the processed foods of yesterday compared to today! I have exactly the same philosophy and approach to my diet, food preparation, and making things from scratch at home! God bless you both!
I grew up on chocolate gravy n biscuits i still eat them to this day!! Oh n dont forget the eggs hashbrowns sausage n bacon now thats a breakfast plus white gravy. Yummy yummy
Chocolate gravey on fluffy homemade drop biscuits, applewood bacon and sometimes a little eggs to balance out that yummy biscuit and gravey. Good memories of Arkansas. There just was no place like it or learning them old ways and food from folks who still did. I been hungry for making some chicken and dumplins to. Love y'alls channel. Country folk WILL survive!!! 😁👍
My grandma always made this for her kids when they were little, and then me when I was little. I now make it for my kids. She always made up biscuits with her Missouri mix, and so do I. Then I dont know exact measurements of anything, but we dont use any butter. We start out with the flour, cocoa, and sugar in a saucepan, then add the milk. No vanilla either. I love it, it's always been my favorite. I like mine pretty thick like a pudding and I usually make a bunch extra when I make it so, I can bake a pie crust and pour the leftovers in it and set it in the fridge and we have chocolate pie.
I’m 74. Never made them. I think I can make these. Also my husband said his mom always made chocolate gravy. Hmmmmm don’t sound good to me but I’ll try. Thank you and mr. brown for all you do.
You had me. I thought it was a Pioneer Princess! Your top load model may be easier to clean out. Nice deep firebox. Our Home Comfort has a smaller firebox. If it needs replacing I plan to buy a new small model Kitchen Queen, but we appreciate this handed down family heirloom! We need more demonstrations on kitchen wood stove to encourage folks to keep that tradition going. I use walnut oil on my stove top and then rub the surface with balled up wax paper when the stove is stone cold. Puts a seal on it like teflon :-) Then I can plunk my toast right on the stove. Never heard of chocolate gravy. Looks divine! Please make more kitchen wood stove videos next winter. I used to give a workshop called COUNTRY COOKING ON A KITCHEN WOOD STOVE, but sadly closed down my classes in 2020. So happy to see you featuring down home Americana! ! Diane
My husband is Filipino and they have something called Champarado for breakfast. It's a chocolate rice porridge and the first time he made it for me I said...ITS Chocolate gravy with rice in it! It's pretty cool to see that we come from different cultures but still have similar foods to enjoy with eachother. I love your cook stove!! Amazing! Thank you for sharing your recipe.
I love my wood cookstove. I also like thinner bisquit now mama didn't cut lard into her flour. She would heat lard it the oven in cast iron pan. When dough was ready and cut she would flip biscuit in hot lard or Crisco coating both sides. It makes such a good bottom crust just waiting for that gravy! Great thing it cuts down on amount of fat needed.
Just so hard... so hard... to watch this video and not be able to even lick the spoon!! 😟. Keeping you, the folks in Australia and their poor animals in my prayers ❤️
I'm from Tennessee. We had biscuits and gravy, scrapple or fried mush every day. The kids at school would talk about chocolate gravy and I'd ask my mom to make it for us. She just looked at me like I was crazy and never did make it. She was grown up in that area so surely she had heard of it. I was an adult before I every made it and have been making it now for 50 years.
I have just purchased a new pioneer princes cook stove. Thanks for the very helpful hints. This is my first wood cook stove. I’m sure I will offer up burnt offerings 😅 until I learn how to use this stove. SO excited!
Sorry I didn't get back to you till tonight, but I did make my biscuits and chocolate gravy. It was sooooo good!!!! Thank you again Miss Lori and Me. Brown!! God bless you both!!
I have never heard of this before - boy do I wish my grandmother was still here to teach me the recipes of yesteryear that are still being used and adapted today.. There is nothing like learning from the master themselves. Thank you for your video. I really enjoy your channel. I would love to ask my grandmother about chocolate gravy and biscuits - I just know she would hop right up and make them for me as I watched! Beautiful video - it actually brought me to tears.
I learned to cook on the old cast iron woodstove that had a waterbox that had to be filled or the stove would get damaged. I think it made any roast taste great. Baking was fun too. That stove was the heart of our kitchen.
That stove is just beautiful. I love it. How unique to have a water reservoir in the stove. They thought of everything when making that stove. My dream is to live in a little cabin in the woods. I wish I could have chickens... I wish a lot of things...lol. Maybe someday. I love to watch you cook. I agree with your husband when he said simple cooking. That's always the best.
@@WhippoorwillHoller - Awe, thank you, hon. I appreciate your advice. I will keep trying. I don't like things they way they are. I like the simple life. That's where I should be.
My mom had a blending fork like that and I never knew what it was used for. We had a big family and I was more of the garden crew than the cooking kids, so I didn’t learn to cook until I left home and had to feed myself. The first gift my husband gave me was a cookbook. 😂
First time I ever atasted chocolate gravy, I was visiting friends in Arkansas. I thought their granny just made up this recipe. Although it WAS DELICIOUS, I still cldnt Believe there was such a recipe. Lol. That was many many years ago. When you showed this gravy, it sure brought back memories. I Know I just Gotta make this for my grandson 😜😋👩🏼🍳 ThankYou for sharing this recipe Ms Lori 👩🏼🍳
Oh my goodness, I grew up with my grandma making cocoa gravy for us grandkids and love it. She would use water instead of milk but when I make it now I use milk. My aunt teases that it's pudding, not gravy. I like mine with toast torn into pieces, a pat of butter and bacon crumbled up on top. My grandma and mom were from Alabama but moved to Arkansas and then southern Missouri in the late 50s. So maybe it's more of an Arkansas/ Missouri thing? Im needing - NEEDING - some chocolate gravy now. ❤❤❤
Thank you Miss Lori . I never knew how to make chocolate gravy. I watched you make it and I made it like you. I make the big Cat Head biscuits. Lots of love and prayers for you and Mr Brown.
I used to cook and have baked in my fireplace insert. It can be done. I used an oven rack on fire bricks to bake on. I no longer heat with wood. Would love your biscuits. Grandma Sue in central Indiana and Izzi Too
Oh my goodness,you cook just like my momma.My parents were born in the mountains of Kentucky.My daddy was a coal miner.Momma made a absolutely delicious apple stack cake,All of her recipes were made from memory,and I never have found a recipe for it.
I was born and raised in California and had neverrrr heard of chocolate gravy..Then when I was 11 my mom married my step dad who was from Oklahoma and we went to his sister Sissys house for dinner and she made pancakes and chocolate gravy. When my mom told me what she was making I was so grossed out cuz I couldnt wrap my head around chocolate gravy...Then I tried it!!! It was so goooood that I literally ate til my stomach hurt..lol There is nothing better than good down home southern cooking!!
Wow! Never heard of chocolate gravy but it sure looks delicious. Will give it a try. Thank you for sharing your recipes. Sending love and blessings. Bonne
I had never heard of chocolate gravy until I went to my husband’s family reunion in Arkansas. My SIL makes it every time we go. I need to learn to make it
We grew up on chocolate gravey and some kind of gravey what ever the meat was we had. My mama and daddy's gravey was the same. We had biscuits or corn bread. Your biscuits looks like my mama's. Thanks alot.
My mom and dad were from Oklahoma. My mom made us chocolate gravy and biscuits all the time she used equal amounts of flour and sugar and then she used all milk .some people use water. Then she put a big pat of butter in it just like you did it was always so yummy
I have heard of chocolate gravy, never had it or made it. May have to try a small batch. 😊( we are white gravy folks here ). Love the stove. And love learning about it. Thanks from southwest Mo.
I wish I lived out in the country and do everything you do. I was raised farming, canning, cooking and everything. Lived it. I so enjoy you shows.
When I was a child my dad was a minister and we would go to different homes for Sunday dinners after church. There was a lady & her brother I will never forget. Had no electricity, running water, refrigerator, indoor bath. Had outhouse in back field with cows.

I have never heard of chocolate gravy. What a delightful idea. Thank you!
You best try ya some. Heaven on a biscuit.
Momma Brown and Papa Brown, thank you soooo much!! Going back and thinking of all my childhood roots that I've forgotten. So sad that I did. But you see... There has been some tramatic that's hit my way when I was 18 years old. Lost both my parents at the same time. I remember growing up being fed this morning dish when we as a family went across the United States. It was a favorite of mine as a child. Thank you for bring thoughts back to mind. ❣️
I grew up with Chocolate Gravy and biscuits! I love them! I’m going to use your recipe! Sure I’ll love them!
This is how my Mom used to make chocolate gravy except she used water instead of milk. My sister and I made this this morning and it brought back so many memories. Thanks for sharing! I’ll be making this for my great grandchildren next week! 12:30 pm
I love that stove. It's gorgeous. I've always enjoyed cooking over fire and I'm sure the stove would make that easier. That is a wonderful recipe. I have to make it now.. lol thank you
I was raised on chocolate gravy and biscuits in Paragould. I make it still. My kids were raised on it. However, Mama made it with water and so I do too. That’s some good eats. Love your channel!
I'm 69 years old and just recently heard of chocolate gravy. After seeing it, I think I'll just stick to my carolina sausage white gravy. But at least now I've seen it and to each there on. Glad it's there for those who do love it.
Never had this until an amazing friend made it for me in Tennessee
Love it! Xoxoxo
My older sister used to make chocolate gravy all the time hers was a little thicker but oh how good it was and your brought back so many memories. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. Love watching your videos and listening to you and Mr. Brown .
What a beautiful stove! Makes me want to move where it gets cold to have one to cook on. Loved your gravy also! Hugs and love. I do have you on my Word Press Blog in Links I follow so more people can find you. You are still my very favorite UA-camr!
Your a sweetie! Thank you! So much, xoxoxo
I had it once in a church camp as a kid and that is a memory that makes me smile. I'm gonna have to try this
I just love your videos, your recipes, your philosophy... and I agree with you one-thousand-percent about the processed foods of yesterday compared to today! I have exactly the same philosophy and approach to my diet, food preparation, and making things from scratch at home! God bless you both!
Love the stove. Chocolate gravy looked amazing. God bless🙏😜
Lots of good things come out of Canada. The maple leaf forever!
I grew up on chocolate gravy n biscuits i still eat them to this day!! Oh n dont forget the eggs hashbrowns sausage n bacon now thats a breakfast plus white gravy. Yummy yummy
Chocolate gravey on fluffy homemade drop biscuits, applewood bacon and sometimes a little eggs to balance out that yummy biscuit and gravey. Good memories of Arkansas. There just was no place like it or learning them old ways and food from folks who still did. I been hungry for making some chicken and dumplins to. Love y'alls channel. Country folk WILL survive!!! 😁👍
Thank you
My grandma always made this for her kids when they were little, and then me when I was little. I now make it for my kids. She always made up biscuits with her Missouri mix, and so do I. Then I dont know exact measurements of anything, but we dont use any butter. We start out with the flour, cocoa, and sugar in a saucepan, then add the milk. No vanilla either. I love it, it's always been my favorite. I like mine pretty thick like a pudding and I usually make a bunch extra when I make it so, I can bake a pie crust and pour the leftovers in it and set it in the fridge and we have chocolate pie.
Sounds wonderful! We love it! Xoxoxo
Mix chocolate gravy
I’m 74. Never made them. I think I can make these. Also my husband said his mom always made chocolate gravy. Hmmmmm don’t sound good to me but I’ll try. Thank you and mr. brown for all you do.
My Mama made this for us for breakfast in the 60's and 70's We called it, " soppy syruppy ". So happy I found your channel. It's really great!
Oh gosh I would have to drink that gravy the whole pan of it lol
i know ! we enjoyed it!
xoxoxo
I know we enjoyed it!
You had me. I thought it was a Pioneer Princess! Your top load model may be easier to clean out. Nice deep firebox. Our Home Comfort has a smaller firebox. If it needs replacing I plan to buy a new small model Kitchen Queen, but we appreciate this handed down family heirloom! We need more demonstrations on kitchen wood stove to encourage folks to keep that tradition going. I use walnut oil on my stove top and then rub the surface with balled up wax paper when the stove is stone cold. Puts a seal on it like teflon :-) Then I can plunk my toast right on the stove. Never heard of chocolate gravy. Looks divine! Please make more kitchen wood stove videos next winter. I used to give a workshop called COUNTRY COOKING ON A KITCHEN WOOD STOVE, but sadly closed down my classes in 2020. So happy to see you featuring down home Americana! ! Diane
Thank you Diane!
My husband is Filipino and they have something called Champarado for breakfast. It's a chocolate rice porridge and the first time he made it for me I said...ITS Chocolate gravy with rice in it! It's pretty cool to see that we come from different cultures but still have similar foods to enjoy with eachother. I love your cook stove!! Amazing! Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Oh my. I would love the recipe! And story behind it, xoxoxo
I never heard of chocolate gravy... looks delicious 😋
We love it! xoxoxo
Been eating chocolate gravy for years! We love it!
Love Chocolate Gravy!
Never heard of Chocolate Gravy.
Dina Kogan it’s very good. My Mum made it all the time.
I love my wood cookstove. I also like thinner bisquit now mama didn't cut lard into her flour. She would heat lard it the oven in cast iron pan. When dough was ready and cut she would flip biscuit in hot lard or Crisco coating both sides. It makes such a good bottom crust just waiting for that gravy! Great thing it cuts down on amount of fat needed.
Just so hard... so hard... to watch this video and not be able to even lick the spoon!! 😟.
Keeping you, the folks in Australia and their poor animals in my prayers ❤️
If you were here I'd if gave you that spoon! Xoxoxo
Loved the info about the stove. Breakfast looks good.
I'm from Tennessee. We had biscuits and gravy, scrapple or fried mush every day. The kids at school would talk about chocolate gravy and I'd ask my mom to make it for us. She just looked at me like I was crazy and never did make it. She was grown up in that area so surely she had heard of it. I was an adult before I every made it and have been making it now for 50 years.
Me Brown was waiting patiently but even off screen you could tell his mouth was waterin’ for that gravy! Lol!
😂😂😂 I noticed that too .
I will have to make this sometime when we're camping! I think my grandkids would like it .
I have just purchased a new pioneer princes cook stove. Thanks for the very helpful hints. This is my first wood cook stove. I’m sure I will offer up burnt offerings 😅 until I learn how to use this stove. SO excited!
Sorry I didn't get back to you till tonight, but I did make my biscuits and chocolate gravy. It was sooooo good!!!! Thank you again Miss Lori and Me. Brown!! God bless you both!!
I have never heard of this before - boy do I wish my grandmother was still here to teach me the recipes of yesteryear that are still being used and adapted today.. There is nothing like learning from the master themselves. Thank you for your video. I really enjoy your channel. I would love to ask my grandmother about chocolate gravy and biscuits - I just know she would hop right up and make them for me as I watched! Beautiful video - it actually brought me to tears.
Thank you
I just love this video. I’m watching it again. 🥰
I use to fix that for my kids … my grandma always fixed it for me
Thank you,xoxoxo
I learned to cook on the old cast iron woodstove that had a waterbox that had to be filled or the stove would get damaged. I think it made any roast taste great. Baking was fun too. That stove was the heart of our kitchen.
My mama used to make us kids this when we were young. Sometimes, we'd just pour it over bread. So yummy!!
That stove is just beautiful. I love it. How unique to have a water reservoir in the stove. They thought of everything when making that stove. My dream is to live in a little cabin in the woods. I wish I could have chickens... I wish a lot of things...lol. Maybe someday. I love to watch you cook. I agree with your husband when he said simple cooking. That's always the best.
If that's what you want, I say keep striving for it
It's simple, peaceful life is so worth, leaving the worldly things behind
God Bless, xoxoxo
@@WhippoorwillHoller - Awe, thank you, hon. I appreciate your advice. I will keep trying. I don't like things they way they are. I like the simple life. That's where I should be.
My mom had a blending fork like that and I never knew what it was used for. We had a big family and I was more of the garden crew than the cooking kids, so I didn’t learn to cook until I left home and had to feed myself. The first gift my husband gave me was a cookbook. 😂
First time I ever atasted chocolate gravy, I was visiting friends in Arkansas. I thought their granny just made up this recipe. Although it WAS DELICIOUS, I still cldnt Believe there was such a recipe. Lol. That was many many years ago. When you showed this gravy, it sure brought back memories. I Know I just Gotta make this for my grandson 😜😋👩🏼🍳
ThankYou for sharing this recipe Ms Lori 👩🏼🍳
Oh my goodness, I grew up with my grandma making cocoa gravy for us grandkids and love it. She would use water instead of milk but when I make it now I use milk. My aunt teases that it's pudding, not gravy. I like mine with toast torn into pieces, a pat of butter and bacon crumbled up on top.
My grandma and mom were from Alabama but moved to Arkansas and then southern Missouri in the late 50s. So maybe it's more of an Arkansas/ Missouri thing?
Im needing - NEEDING - some chocolate gravy now. ❤❤❤
Yes, I'm so glad so many people grew up on chocolate gravy!
Xoxoxo
Thank you Miss Lori . I never knew how to make chocolate gravy. I watched you make it and I made it like you. I make the big Cat Head biscuits. Lots of love and prayers for you and Mr Brown.
Wonderful!
I used to cook and have baked in my fireplace insert. It can be done. I used an oven rack on fire bricks to bake on. I no longer heat with wood. Would love your biscuits.
Grandma Sue in central Indiana and Izzi Too
Yes, mam, and I would love to have a huge fireplace to cook in,
God Bless,xoxoxo
Love you and Izzi too!
Oh how I miss my wood cook stove. She was a beaut.
Oh my goodness,you cook just like my momma.My parents were born in the mountains of Kentucky.My daddy was a coal miner.Momma made a absolutely delicious apple stack cake,All of her recipes were made from memory,and I never have found a recipe for it.
I made some of the chocolate gravy. It was delicious.
I love it. We love those heat driven fans too. We bought a 2nd one for our stove.
I was born and raised in California and had neverrrr heard of chocolate gravy..Then when I was 11 my mom married my step dad who was from Oklahoma and we went to his sister Sissys house for dinner and she made pancakes and chocolate gravy. When my mom told me what she was making I was so grossed out cuz I couldnt wrap my head around chocolate gravy...Then I tried it!!! It was so goooood that I literally ate til my stomach hurt..lol There is nothing better than good down home southern cooking!!
Thank you, your breakfast looked good. I never had or heard of chocolate gravy on biscuits until .
