@Pepsiiiman the American way is the wrong one English was invented in Great Britain and the people are mostly from Europe that live in America because of the ancestors and the world language is English and it was invented in Great Britain and was always like this (since the English we know was invented) and the American English is just an accent ( sry for so much ,,and“ )
"Can you do an American accent?" (Perfectly responds "i think i can" as a bald eagle soars overhead and an m1 abrams rolls behind lmao- that kid nailed the american accent no hesitation)
When the British finally lose patience with us and decide to re-invade, they will be sending this young man in first to act as their eyes on the inside. We will be none the wiser. 😂
As a Chinese who had never seen biscuits before, I was still shocked when I saw a biscuit in Iowa. The word "biscuit" sounds thin and crunchy, but that biscuit I saw defies all those qualities. How I love this world for being so fun!
It "sounds thin and crunchy" because your reference for biscuit is thin and crunchy, for an American a biscuit sound precisely that, a biscuit, like the one they know..
@@harvestmoon_autumnskyooo that would be a good idea to be making all the "apparently this is english culture" types of food and have them try it ahahhaha
We need them trying American snacks. I just realised their 'I'll see how I feel' is similar to saying 'I will think about it' which means the person won't normally consider it haha
It’s so funny seeing their reaction to what biscuits and gravy looks like then you can watch how they actually reacted after eating biscuits and gravy it’s glorious
@@painexotic3757 I love biscuits and sausage gravy the south definitely makes it better but if you’re a good cook you can make it…..or marry someone that can cook good lol
This is what I love about most Brits that I have had the pleasure to befriend or just interact with is that they have no problem with having a laugh about themselves, they're very often really good sports. So, from Sweden I send my regards.
Context for Americans if needed: Scones are slightly softer, sweeter biscuits, often with raisins or currants baked into them. We have them with jelly (strawberry or raspberry most often) and cream, as a dessert. The idea of using them as a savoury item is completely alien to us.
7:13 For my confused American countrymen, “pants” in England is referring to underwear, as opposed to the US where pants means a pair of jeans. It took me a second to process why it would be so awful for kids to wear their jeans until I remembered this difference lol
Right? "Sausage and mash", that's #2 British food, biscuits and gravy, disgusting. 🤣 It's mostly because they are just used to eating biscuits / scones as something sweet, with clotted cream, or jam. They don't think of it as a savory dish. And white sauce is not really what they understand gravy to be. 🤷♂️
@@ricdrakes2741 They're different to your beans. You're probably imagining the thick, sweet stuff you get in the US. And bangers are bland? There's no one "banger". Try a pork and bramley apple banger or just a normal spiced cumberland and tell me it's bland. Oozing with flavour compared to US hot dogs.
There was a serious miscommunication between an American and a Brit during the war. When asked by the Americans if they needed backup, the British officer replied _'We're having a spot of bother here yes'_ so the American officer prioritised another group for backup. When the backup for the British team arrived, they found everyone dead. The American officer was unaware that _'We're having a spot of bother here'_ is English English for _'Oh God oh God we're all going to die'_
"I don't really think about it, I want to eat all of it" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love Jay. He's such witty, hilarious, honest, and polite at the same time. Please keep making video with him, I'm a fan of him ✨✨✨✨✨
And the gravy is regional within the South. That was sausage gravy, the normal, but in Tennessee, they often used red eye gravy which is ham gravy. Notice the emphasis on pork. The Yankee equivalent is chipped beef on toast. Same milk gravy base as sausage gravy, but with chipped beef instead of sausage. To be honest I don't like chemically leavened bread - American biscuits. Yeast dough makes the best bread. Truly these things are the American equivalent of beans on toast. So don't weird out on it.
@markgaudry7549 exactly. Btw, I'm from MI and my mom often made my dad sausage gravy (he'd been in the war in Korea, but I honestly think my whole family made sausage gravy). And fun fact: "red eye gravy" got that name because there's a bit of coffee in it. Maybe Josh and Ollie should try that
Yeah. And even in the south we have the jam and butter. Not everyone enjoys the gravy haha. I mean, the jam and butter with the biscuit is like, a cracker barrel staple
But it's a staple probably lots of places. Its on the menu at most diners. In California, I eat it every now and then. Biscuits and sausage gravy is amazing. No need to eat anything else for the rest of the day!
I’m in south Louisiana. We have a syrup locally made using sugar cane. It’s called Steen’s Cane Syrup. My dad use to pour some in a bowl and dip his biscuits in the syrup.
It's so damn funny seeing them so surprised about the lack of kettles... I think I had a similar reaction when I found out they were so ubiquitous in the UK
I feel like we need to do a poll to see whether there is a lack, b/c we have always had a kettle in my American household - never used the microwave to boil water/brew tea in my life! Microwave milk for hot chocolate? Maybe 🤣
We (Americans) only recently bought an electric kettle, and I don't know how I've lived without one for so long. It's so easy, I refuse to make tea in a microwave.
As an American, American biscuits are not just eaten with gravy😭😭 We eat them with jam and butter too!! They’re so fluffy (if you get them fresh) so it’s just like warm bread and savory gravy for breakfast. It’s actually gas highkey✋ to my knowledge scones are like super dense and dry, American biscuits are warm and fluffy!!
I remember the first time I tried English chocolate, I felt I had been lied to about how chocolate was supposed to taste, it blew my mind lol. It was soooo good
I was impressed with their American accents, because I’ve lived in the states for 25 years now and I still can’t do an American accent. In fact, I was home in England for two weeks over Christmas and my English accent got even stronger and everyone there remarked on how I don’t have the slightest American sounding accent at all. Now I’m back in the states everyone is having trouble understanding me again with my English accent being so strong!! 😂😂😂
Oh hey that happens to me. Grew up in New England and totally lost the accent after moving to the South. But whenever one of my friends come over suddenly it's back.
Maybe it's a generational thing (I'm GenX), but everyone had a kettle where I grew up in America. One that heated water on the stove, not an electric kettle. Then, as a young adult, I used an electric kettle. Water out of the microwave tastes disgusting. Anyone anywhere is missing out on superior flavor if they microwave water for their tea. Sun brewed tea is also a superior flavor.
@@jsemplefelton5348: We boil our water in tea kettles on the stove. To say that *no one* uses electric kettles would be false. My mom had one. But that was mostly because she was elderly and didn’t want to burn the house down making tea. Stove-top kettles are the norm. So are gas (not electric) ovens and ranges, by the way. And yes, most people have enormous refrigerators. 😂 We also don’t take milk with our tea. Sugar or honey with lemon. ☕️🍯🍋 For context, I’m from Los Angeles. My mother was from New York.
As a southerner, yes we occasionally have our biscuits with gravy, but normally it's jam, jelly, or honey with butter. Or you turn it into a breakfast sandwich with egg, cheese, and some sort of meat.

@@akemus9788 without any condescension at all, you don’t have children, do you? See, when you do, and you are going to be a fantastic parent, you will understand why parents speak of their children so highly, even when they’re not around. I will try and explain. I have raised two sons. Both are in their twenties now, mid, and late 20’s. One, owns his own floor laying business. The other is in the airforce. When we have children, SO MUCH can go wrong. So many bad influences and terrible decisions can make their lives miserable. But, if you raise them well, you see them grow into valuable members of society, and known as decent in their communities, you receive IMMENSE pride. My sons are like having my heart outside of my body, and to know they’re awesome men….I can’t quite describe how happy that makes me. 🌹
It looks cool until you have to wear it and then the whole school is angry about having to wear a tie tucking in shirts wearing a blazer and having to ask the teacher to take it off or a detention and the skirts being too long and no leggings even if it is snowing it's usually very miserable
@@blazikin-wo1oq And don't even get me started on the stupid arbitrary rules schools had with shoes. Only black was allowed, they went to the extreme of making you color in the tiny white section of a shoe with a pen if you had it and still wanted to wear it to school
We'd never have scones with gravy. They're sweet and we have them with butter and coffee or tea. Biscuits, i like them with butter and jelly or just plain. Sausage gravy looks gross, never liked it. The texture is awful.
These kids are sooo cute! Doesn't some of the way things are said have to do with what part of England you are from - I've heard people refer to Cockney etc.. I assume that's a bit of a different accent... They did American accent quite well!! lol It's funny that most of these kids loved the biscuits and gravy in a later video! LOL
just a note to all the british kids out there: american “biscuits” usually aren’t sweet, just like bread or something, you can put sweet or savory things on them. so it’s not like we eat gravy with a sweet scone or anything, it’s entirely savory
Yeah, it always bothers me when they call our biscuits a scone, because they are not anything like scones at all. They aren't sweet, you don't put fruit or nuts in them, they're just soft, flakey, bread-y goodness.
As an American who has a tea kettle and uses it regularly, I was completely shocked that my fellow countrymen heat their tea in the microwave like a bunch of animals 😂
I really like theses videos of British High Schoolers, it shows how humour in the British culture is so engrained from a young age. It is very distinctive. Hope you'll do more of these type of videos. Cheers !
His jokes is precisely what people have in mind when the think about "British humor". "Americans don't have electric kettles" "But you can just buy one"
As a US southerner, I feel like I'm owed an apology because you didn't tell them there was sausage in that gravy. 😂 I feel like if they had a decent plate of biscuits and gravy, they'd at the very least appreciate where were coming from.
@@jishanborno basically you need butter, flour, stock from poultry, beef, or vegetables, or you can use the trimmings from when you cook any of those ( the fat and stuff that's left when you take the cooked food out of the pan or whatever you used to cook it. Not steamed or boiled) , any herbs you want, cream or half/half if your want, salt and pepper.
Josh and Ollie found kids who loves British food on top tier level. This will be interesting content especially Jolly is on the search for best English breakfast restaurants etc 😂
British food is so good though, I will always defend it. Nothing better than a full English or a Sunday roast or a chicken tikka masala lol. Saying that as a British person of Indian descent who was exposed to plenty of good home cooked cultural food growing up - we also have roasts and fish and chips and jacket potatoes and so on because it’s genuinely good and the perfect comfort food for the British climate.
The utter disbelief and shock on those two first kids reading the tea on a microwave meme 💀💀💀 Like lifting their heads like “tell me that’s not true” 6:31 It’s so freaking funny. “You can just buy one, tho” 😂

😂From America: That school is producing some fine young lads! I wish our teens here could get such a good education! Well spoken, and surprisingly sophisticated for as young as they are! 👍
@@mrslawliet They are super delicious, from what I've quickly googled, the best alternative word for biscuit would be a cob. We use a basic dinner roll, but more flakey and layered like a croissant, that is covered in a thick white gravy that can have minced breakfast sausage in it.
Excellent suggestion, but... Whoever made the dish for them would have to go to "UA-cam University" and watch several videos regarding how to make "Authentic Southern Biscuits and Sausage Gravy" first. They'd also need to learn the difference between a typical British sausage and American breakfast sausage, because the two taste fairly different. The seasonings used in something like a Jimmy Dean bulk country sausage are very specific and they're what give the gravy it's distinctive "savory but not spicy" deliciousness! 😘😍 I've seen a few channels from outside the US attempt to make the dish, using what they consider to be sausage and a then paired it with a "sweet" biscuit recipe, like the type used for berry shortcake and cobbler... and let's just say that it's been a disaster every time. 😂 Peeling the casing off a traditional bratwurst or British "banger" and dicing it into little cubes does not give the desired result. HaHa I've also seen recipes on UA-cam for homemade American bulk breakfast sausage, which is imperative to the dish and not too difficult to make, if you have the meat grinder attachment for your KitchenAid mixer or you have a local butcher that you have a great relationship with who'll follow the process to the letter. I'm not sure if all countries have fresh ground pork shoulder in their grocery store butcher/meat department, but it must have no seasoning in it, other than maybe a bit of salt that was added in the processing. All that to ultimately say, true Southern Biscuits and Sausage Gravy must be made with the traditional American ingredients if one wants to experience the ”real deal". This is not the type of dish where substitutions in the ingredients or preparation are a good idea. But... if done correctly, I'm convinced that the guys would absolutely love it! 😊
@@beasley1232 I agree. As someone who is from a state where we don’t have the typical southern or eastern accent and has the most basic sounding voice which is what I imagine they were going for, they could’ve done it better
@@Profeshinal exactly, I'm from Illinois, more specifically Chicago and I'll let you know people from Illinois literally have the definition of just the standard American dialect. The accents that they tried to mimic sounds closer to the US western dialects and even than they weren't even on point.
I don't know... as an American i love watching this. hearing them try an American accent is gold. Me and my friends would always do terrible English accents. its nice to know they have one for us too. And we do have our biscuits with others things besides gravy. Jam and honey are go to

@@brendafrazier811 well Diet coke horrifies me, just have normal coke... And arrrgg microwave water 📈📈😫😭😵 BUT, all that being said, whatever you like, If not having a kettle works for you that that's great
In America, We do put jelly or jam on our biscuits. We also put country gravy on biscuits. It’s not the same as beef gravy. Usually made with the grease of bacon or sausage after it’s fried.
"Not all of them, but I'd say majority of Americans don't have kettles." "But you can just buy one!" My exact reaction as a South African 🤣 I can't imagine heating water in the microwave 💀 Edit: you can stop arguing at me about the microwave thing in the replies, I'm only going off what they said in the video (and the previous British memes video)
@@WeeklyDoseOfCelesteit’s mostly because the British are way more exposed to American accents. TV, Film, Streaming, Music, Tik Tok, etc, that they get good at it. Americans are significantly less exposed to British accents so we suck at them
I love that we’re getting a new generation to watch. Also, American biscuit and sausage gravy is delicious. But, we do also eat them with jam, cream, or honey too.
Have them try biscuits with sausage gravy. I’m Korean and learned to eat this after we immigrated to the US and my dad joined the Army. He fell in love with it and made it for us when he returned from service.
The guy that said "break it down" seemed so genuine!!! 😭😂 That was a precious moment. He is my FAVORITE! he had the BEST reactions to all of the things.
Their American accents were impressive! And before you write off our biscuits and gravy, give it a try. Those grayish chunky bits are actually crumbled sausage and the white stuff is gravy made with milk. It's very savory and comforting on a cold morning!
@@thealpaca8hay the sausage is browned and set aside; then a roux is made using the fat from the sausage. Milk (and sometimes also chicken stock) is added to the roux. The milk gravy is seasoned with a lot of cracked black pepper, salt (if needed) and whatever spices or seasonings you like. Then the crumbled sausage is added back in. It's poured hot over fluffy biscuits. I've literally never met someone who didn't like it.
@@agathetonin1385 maybe to you, but it's basically a bechamel sauce with meat, which is a combination eaten around the world. If you've ever had a bechamel over lasagna, it's the same concept really. Don't knock it until you've tried it!
As an American, I love seeing y’all’s reaction to American’s version of a biscuit and gravy. It’s priceless!! Here’s the thing biscuits in America are savory, hence why gravy works so nicely with them. If you ever want want a proper biscuit and gravy , I have you covered! LOL Keep making these amazing “educational” entertaining videos!! Love from your American cousin!😂
@@thatoneperson9002 Well, American biscuits themselves are like, a blank canvas of ...bread. You can do them savory with addons like meats and cheese and gravy, or do them sweet with jams and honey and the like. American biscuits are just a type of bread haha. Different texture versus normal sandwich bread obviously Cookies are the other thing!!! Sugary by default. Often with chocolate/candy/nuts tossed in 🍪 Can also have frosting or have two cookies sandwiching creme. "Cookie" is vague itself but you know it will be sweet You won't get American cookies and American biscuits confused in person!
@@thatoneperson9002 exactly what @HeartWyrm said. The only way an American biscuit would be sweet is to cut it in half and put jelly, jam, or honey. Kind of Ike a sweet scone but the biscuit has no sweetness. We don’t add chocolate chips to biscuits. But if chocolate chips are added they are usually added to “Americanized” scones. Which personally I do not like American scones. Way too much sugar. I’m a British style scone kind of girl. Thankfully, I have been taught by some of the best to make a proper scone. 😉☺️
@@heartwyrmIn britain cookie is used quite a lot but what do americans call a regular biscuit, like a digestive or something like that cause in the UK at least we wouldn’t consider that a cookie
I think the disconnect with the biscuit thing, is that American biscuits are more like dinner rolls than what they think of as a biscuit, so it’s savoury
But also, I've only had biscuits and gravy a few times in my life. I've biscuits with butter and jam or honey way more often. Biscuits and gravy is mostly a southern breakfast food, and those pictures didn't look like what I've had.
@@LOCATIONREDACTED I've noticed a trend. America gets a word from the Brits. The brits change their minds on the meaning and pronunciation of the word, America continues with the original usage. A little time passes, and the brits go 'Why do Americans insist on calling Football Soccer?"
“I’d say the majority of Americans don’t have kettles.” “But…you can just buy one!” I audibly laughed. As someone with an electric kettle, I promise we’re all not monsters that hear water in the microwave. I’d put water in a pot on the stove to boil it before I used a microwave for tea 😭
I love this. My dad is British but my mom is Filipino and I was born and grew up in the states and my family all give each other a good ribbing over our cultural differences and vocabulary.
I’m a US southerner and I would like to say that some of us have our biscuits with a little bit of honey on them. Or apple butter. (Look it up. It’s delicious!) Not all of us do the whole gravy thing lol
@04:57: Americans do say “in a pickle” instead of “in a *bit of* a pickle”, but you rarely hear it anymore. Using “pickle” that way pretty much disappeared after the first half of the 20th century.
To be fair it’s more common to eat biscuits with jam and or butter than it is to put gravy on it. In some places it’s practically unheard of and certainly not found in restaurants. I think it’s most popular in the south and as you move west becomes less popular. We also have scones usually with a light glaze or a sprinkle of sugar, they tend to be less buttery more sweet. Im curious if your scones are as similar in taste to biscuits as they look.
Ahhh another highschoolers series episode!!! Please never let this series go all your fans enjoy it 😁 Also I’m waiting on another Shakespeare reference from Malachi😂🤣
Biscuits and gravy is regional, but nearly every American eats biscuits with jam or honey, and butter. Pretty spot on about kettles, which I do own, electric and stove top, but my grandmother was British and always made us proper tea.
Biscuits and gravy is certainly NOT regional! You can find it served in restaurants and homes all across America. Most Americans who have had biscuits and gravy prefer gravy rather than jam, jelly or honey, unless biscuits are served with fried chicken then it's honey all the way.
@@charliedavis8894 Biscuits and gravy is ubiquitous in the south, and very uncommon in the north. Biscuits and jam or honey is weird and not common. I would put jam on a scone, not a biscuit. I grew up in the northeast, and the only thing you'd ever put on a biscuit up there is butter.
@@BaglessUpright If you mean it's uncommon in the NE US you are probably correct. Everywhere else it's very common. I've had biscuits and gravy from San Diego to Seattle and all points between. I've had it in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Michigan, Ohio , you get my point. Motels serve it with their "free breakfast," most truck stops have it on their menu, even convenience stores sell biscuits and gravy all throughout the SW, NW, MIDWEST as well as the South.

In America we also put butter and jam on biscuits. Gravy and biscuits is a dish all in it's own. Boys did a great job with American accents!
Exactly, I only eat mine with jelly and butter for breakfast and then with meat and brown gravy for dinner.
You need to see the video of them actually trying biscuits and gravy. They think it’s amazing!
Or honey
Honey and butter is much more common in my state
Context for Americans if needed: Scones are slightly softer, sweeter biscuits, often with raisins or currants baked into them. We have them with jelly (strawberry or raspberry most often) and cream, as a dessert. The idea of using them as a savoury item is completely alien to us.
7:13 For my confused American countrymen, “pants” in England is referring to underwear, as opposed to the US where pants means a pair of jeans. It took me a second to process why it would be so awful for kids to wear their jeans until I remembered this difference lol

Right? "Sausage and mash", that's #2 British food, biscuits and gravy, disgusting. 🤣
It's mostly because they are just used to eating biscuits / scones as something sweet, with clotted cream, or jam. They don't think of it as a savory dish. And white sauce is not really what they understand gravy to be. 🤷♂️

There was a serious miscommunication between an American and a Brit during the war. When asked by the Americans if they needed backup, the British officer replied _'We're having a spot of bother here yes'_ so the American officer prioritised another group for backup. When the backup for the British team arrived, they found everyone dead. The American officer was unaware that _'We're having a spot of bother here'_ is English English for _'Oh God oh God we're all going to die'_

Biscuits and gravy is mostly a thing in parts of the southern US . Mostly people eat them with jam or butter or honey.
And the gravy is regional within the South. That was sausage gravy, the normal, but in Tennessee, they often used red eye gravy which is ham gravy. Notice the emphasis on pork. The Yankee equivalent is chipped beef on toast. Same milk gravy base as sausage gravy, but with chipped beef instead of sausage. To be honest I don't like chemically leavened bread - American biscuits. Yeast dough makes the best bread. Truly these things are the American equivalent of beans on toast. So don't weird out on it.
@markgaudry7549 exactly. Btw, I'm from MI and my mom often made my dad sausage gravy (he'd been in the war in Korea, but I honestly think my whole family made sausage gravy). And fun fact: "red eye gravy" got that name because there's a bit of coffee in it. Maybe Josh and Ollie should try that
Yeah. And even in the south we have the jam and butter. Not everyone enjoys the gravy haha. I mean, the jam and butter with the biscuit is like, a cracker barrel staple
But it's a staple probably lots of places. Its on the menu at most diners. In California, I eat it every now and then. Biscuits and sausage gravy is amazing. No need to eat anything else for the rest of the day!
I’m in south Louisiana. We have a syrup locally made using sugar cane. It’s called Steen’s Cane Syrup. My dad use to pour some in a bowl and dip his biscuits in the syrup.
It's so damn funny seeing them so surprised about the lack of kettles... I think I had a similar reaction when I found out they were so ubiquitous in the UK

As an American, American biscuits are not just eaten with gravy😭😭 We eat them with jam and butter too!! They’re so fluffy (if you get them fresh) so it’s just like warm bread and savory gravy for breakfast. It’s actually gas highkey✋ to my knowledge scones are like super dense and dry, American biscuits are warm and fluffy!!
Scones are meant to be warm and fluffy but there are a lot of bad scones because they're really common
You have them for… breakfast… 💀
Yep, scones are denser and sweeter due to eggs and sugar being added whereas traditionally biscuits are just a fat, leavening agent, salt, and milk.
Not to be confused with cookies.
I feel like for both scones and american biscuits it both depends on who's making them lol
I like these kids so much, they are so cool and polite. Good kids.

Although I do have a kettle, here in America almost every household has a coffee maker.
@@jacobsteele925- Here in the UK we also have coffee makers. What about the tea drinkers.
Maybe it's a generational thing (I'm GenX), but everyone had a kettle where I grew up in America. One that heated water on the stove, not an electric kettle. Then, as a young adult, I used an electric kettle. Water out of the microwave tastes disgusting. Anyone anywhere is missing out on superior flavor if they microwave water for their tea. Sun brewed tea is also a superior flavor.

@@jsemplefelton5348: We boil our water in tea kettles on the stove. To say that *no one* uses electric kettles would be false. My mom had one. But that was mostly because she was elderly and didn’t want to burn the house down making tea. Stove-top kettles are the norm. So are gas (not electric) ovens and ranges, by the way. And yes, most people have enormous refrigerators. 😂

im American and i would like to try that
Excellent suggestion, but...
Whoever made the dish for them would have to go to "UA-cam University" and watch several videos regarding how to make "Authentic Southern Biscuits and Sausage Gravy" first.
They'd also need to learn the difference between a typical British sausage and American breakfast sausage, because the two taste fairly different. The seasonings used in something like a Jimmy Dean bulk country sausage are very specific and they're what give the gravy it's distinctive "savory but not spicy" deliciousness! 😘😍
I've seen a few channels from outside the US attempt to make the dish, using what they consider to be sausage and a then paired it with a "sweet" biscuit recipe, like the type used for berry shortcake and cobbler... and let's just say that it's been a disaster every time. 😂 Peeling the casing off a traditional bratwurst or British "banger" and dicing it into little cubes does not give the desired result. HaHa
I've also seen recipes on UA-cam for homemade American bulk breakfast sausage, which is imperative to the dish and not too difficult to make, if you have the meat grinder attachment for your KitchenAid mixer or you have a local butcher that you have a great relationship with who'll follow the process to the letter. I'm not sure if all countries have fresh ground pork shoulder in their grocery store butcher/meat department, but it must have no seasoning in it, other than maybe a bit of salt that was added in the processing.
All that to ultimately say, true Southern Biscuits and Sausage Gravy must be made with the traditional American ingredients if one wants to experience the ”real deal". This is not the type of dish where substitutions in the ingredients or preparation are a good idea.
But... if done correctly, I'm convinced that the guys would absolutely love it! 😊

Their American accents were impressive! And before you write off our biscuits and gravy, give it a try. Those grayish chunky bits are actually crumbled sausage and the white stuff is gravy made with milk. It's very savory and comforting on a cold morning!
‘Greyish chunky bits’ does not sound appetising 🤢😂
So basically that “gravy” is milky crushed up sausages. You have that with a scone?
@@thealpaca8hay the sausage is browned and set aside; then a roux is made using the fat from the sausage. Milk (and sometimes also chicken stock) is added to the roux. The milk gravy is seasoned with a lot of cracked black pepper, salt (if needed) and whatever spices or seasonings you like. Then the crumbled sausage is added back in. It's poured hot over fluffy biscuits. I've literally never met someone who didn't like it.
I'm so sorry but that sounds absolutely disgusting and i'm not even British
@@agathetonin1385 maybe to you, but it's basically a bechamel sauce with meat, which is a combination eaten around the world. If you've ever had a bechamel over lasagna, it's the same concept really. Don't knock it until you've tried it!
As an American, I love seeing y’all’s reaction to American’s version of a biscuit and gravy. It’s priceless!! Here’s the thing biscuits in America are savory, hence why gravy works so nicely with them. If you ever want want a proper biscuit and gravy , I have you covered! LOL Keep making these amazing “educational” entertaining videos!! Love from your American cousin!😂
But if a biscuit is savory then what about if you have like a choc chip biscuit... What is it called?
@@thatoneperson9002 Well, American biscuits themselves are like, a blank canvas of ...bread. You can do them savory with addons like meats and cheese and gravy, or do them sweet with jams and honey and the like. American biscuits are just a type of bread haha. Different texture versus normal sandwich bread obviously
Cookies are the other thing!!! Sugary by default. Often with chocolate/candy/nuts tossed in 🍪
Can also have frosting or have two cookies sandwiching creme. "Cookie" is vague itself but you know it will be sweet
You won't get American cookies and American biscuits confused in person!
@@thatoneperson9002 exactly what @HeartWyrm said. The only way an American biscuit would be sweet is to cut it in half and put jelly, jam, or honey. Kind of Ike a sweet scone but the biscuit has no sweetness.
We don’t add chocolate chips to biscuits. But if chocolate chips are added they are usually added to “Americanized” scones. Which personally I do not like American scones. Way too much sugar. I’m a British style scone kind of girl. Thankfully, I have been taught by some of the best to make a proper scone. 😉☺️
@@heartwyrm oh do what we call a biscuit is a cookie for you, that makes more sense lol
@@heartwyrmIn britain cookie is used quite a lot but what do americans call a regular biscuit, like a digestive or something like that cause in the UK at least we wouldn’t consider that a cookie
there is a town near me called trottescliffe and it is pronounced 'troeslee'
I think the disconnect with the biscuit thing, is that American biscuits are more like dinner rolls than what they think of as a biscuit, so it’s savoury
A British person from pre 1900 would side with the Americans.
Yeah, biscuits and scones are not the same thing in the states.
But also, I've only had biscuits and gravy a few times in my life. I've biscuits with butter and jam or honey way more often. Biscuits and gravy is mostly a southern breakfast food, and those pictures didn't look like what I've had.
@@LOCATIONREDACTED I've noticed a trend. America gets a word from the Brits. The brits change their minds on the meaning and pronunciation of the word, America continues with the original usage. A little time passes, and the brits go 'Why do Americans insist on calling Football Soccer?"
But it’s breakfast
As an American, I can confirm that biscuits and gravy is delicious!
Sausage and gravy is a No for me. But stewed chicken and gravy is a definite YES!
okay but pork and gravy and stewed chicken and gravy is top tier.
-me, an American
Heck yeah!! I saw that pic and was like, “Dang that looks yummy!” 😂
you're American..what about those British breakfast vs American breakfast......what do Americans have for breakfast?? I'm not from America
@@aldrighmukhim7544 as a Brit I assume they have those sugar-loaded cereals like fruit loops and stuff like that
“I’d say the majority of Americans don’t have kettles.”
“But…you can just buy one!”
I audibly laughed. As someone with an electric kettle, I promise we’re all not monsters that hear water in the microwave. I’d put water in a pot on the stove to boil it before I used a microwave for tea 😭
The majority don’t make tea, so the majority don’t need a kettle
Majority of Americans don’t have kettles because we drink ice tea. I buy the cold brew tea bags, make sun tea, or brew it in a coffee pot.
I do put my water to boil in microwave even I'm not american.
THANK GOODNESS
I don’t even drink tea anyways 😹
One consistent thread through all the pairings was a keen sense of humour
I love this. My dad is British but my mom is Filipino and I was born and grew up in the states and my family all give each other a good ribbing over our cultural differences and vocabulary.
What country in Britain was he from ?
I’m also half Filipino myself, but my dad’s American. Funnily enough I want to live in England lol
@@healingandgrowth-infp4677 He's English. My family live mostly around Bath, or in the countryside near there.
I’m a US southerner and I would like to say that some of us have our biscuits with a little bit of honey on them. Or apple butter. (Look it up. It’s delicious!) Not all of us do the whole gravy thing lol
Yeah. I was just as weirded out as them when I saw the biscuits and gravy tbh, In my family it's usually butter and jam.
Gravy weird, the honey is goated
so to them what is a custard cream
@@aromanticfranziskavonkarmabutter and jam is the best on them
This southerner loves himself some biscuits n gravy
@04:57: Americans do say “in a pickle” instead of “in a *bit of* a pickle”, but you rarely hear it anymore. Using “pickle” that way pretty much disappeared after the first half of the 20th century.
To be fair it’s more common to eat biscuits with jam and or butter than it is to put gravy on it. In some places it’s practically unheard of and certainly not found in restaurants. I think it’s most popular in the south and as you move west becomes less popular. We also have scones usually with a light glaze or a sprinkle of sugar, they tend to be less buttery more sweet. Im curious if your scones are as similar in taste to biscuits as they look.
Gotta appreciate how they brought back the biscuits and gravy for them to taste
I saw that video and despite what it looked like, they loved it.😋
Ahhh another highschoolers series episode!!! Please never let this series go all your fans enjoy it 😁
Also I’m waiting on another Shakespeare reference from Malachi😂🤣
I love these. They’re so funny 😂
I hate these
Biscuits and gravy is regional, but nearly every American eats biscuits with jam or honey, and butter. Pretty spot on about kettles, which I do own, electric and stove top, but my grandmother was British and always made us proper tea.
Biscuits and gravy is certainly NOT regional! You can find it served in restaurants and homes all across America. Most Americans who have had biscuits and gravy prefer gravy rather than jam, jelly or honey, unless biscuits are served with fried chicken then it's honey all the way.
Well, you did have propertea, until Blackrock bought all of it.
@@charliedavis8894 Biscuits and gravy is ubiquitous in the south, and very uncommon in the north.
Biscuits and jam or honey is weird and not common. I would put jam on a scone, not a biscuit. I grew up in the northeast, and the only thing you'd ever put on a biscuit up there is butter.
@@BaglessUpright If you mean it's uncommon in the NE US you are probably correct. Everywhere else it's very common. I've had biscuits and gravy from San Diego to Seattle and all points between. I've had it in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Michigan, Ohio , you get my point. Motels serve it with their "free breakfast," most truck stops have it on their menu, even convenience stores sell biscuits and gravy all throughout the SW, NW, MIDWEST as well as the South.
anyone who eats biscuits with gravy is a physcopath
They are all very sweet and polite kidos
this video turned out to be the best stress reliever for me and im neither brit or american, pure positivity, goes straight to my youtube favorite list
