Thank God there are people like you that can keep old time recipes alive and well. That looks amazing, definitely going to make this . I have many tomatoes from the garden right now . Thank you !!!!
I was born and in raised in Virginia (1948) and wife is from North Caroline. Neither of us ever heard of Tomato Gravy. Looks good and we will make tomorrow night. Thank you for this odd recipe.
my mom made tomato gravy but she followed the Penn dutch version.....it was lighter in color, with shreds of tomato and it was delicious.....she served over toast and we kids thought it was out of this world....well, everything she made was.
Ms Lori, your channel is such a testimony to southern cooking and southern hospitality which go hand in hand. Someday, far in the future, your great great grandkids will be showing these videos to their children and holding you up as an example of family love and tradition. I have got to try this tomato gravy!💕
My parents grew up in the hills of Kentucky, grew up eating our form of tomato gravy. We didn’t add any cream or milk. It was bacon grease, onion’s, celery and stewed tomatoes. That’s it. It was the best thing on meatloaf and rice. My husband had never had it until I cooked it for him, he loved it. When I lost him in 2007, I craved tomato gravy and rice. That was almost all I ate for about 6 months. I hope people give it a try you’ll be surprised how wonderful it is and simple.
My ex's grandmother his family was from Pennsylvania Pennsylvania Dutch (German) taught me how to make tomato gravy when I was 19. I love it made with fresh garden tomatoes. I don't add onions because I don't like them. I use fresh ripe garden tomatoes, butter, flour and a bit of cornstarch, milk, salt, a lot of pepper and a tiny bit of sugar. It's Soo good over biscuits or toast. It's quick to cook so it's a great quick breakfast on a summer day. I used to make it for lunch a lot too decades ago when I had a huge garden and an abundance of tomatoes. I have no tomatoes in the house now or I'd fix some today! I'm old now and live in town, sure do miss rural life and my garden. The town I live in is overrun with rabbits and squirrels they even came up on my deck and ate the plants I had in planters!
How wonderful to learn a good old American country style recipe! I bet there’s a million stories that go along with it all off that wonderful cooking from way back when. Whenever I find a old used cook book, I love imagining what the people looked like, the home they lived in and the lives they endured!The woman from certain times had no time to be weak. They certainly carried the load and even then some! Let us remember that always! 💪🏼😊
I'm from Beaufort SC and I've not had tomatoe gravy. I know live in St.louis and never had a mom who taught me to cook. Now I have 2 grandsons and I have made almost every recipe from only you and my grandboys think that nobody can cook as good as there Mimi. You remind me of everything that once so good and eating with your family was top Sunday priority. So my family now has a family Sunday supper rule. I cook your food and damn I'm good because of you. Thank you Thank you Thank you times a trillion. I have ripe tomatoes right now so I'm going to test this out today. God bless y'all you're the best.
My Grandma was born in 1910 in North Carolina, she always made biscuits and tomato gravy. Times were hard in the 30's and this was one of the foods that helped with survival and were comforting too. We grow our tomatoes and love your video on small batch biscuits and this tomato gravy, a lot of fond memories. Food is like music, it takes us back.
Hello Lori. I have conquered making biscuit & gravy so I know I can make this dish! I'm from Smithfield, R.I. Never ate biscuits & gravy until I began watching your channel and others. All biscuit recipes are easy. Enjoy your tomato & gravy dish!! Be well.
I love you both Mr. and Mrs. Brown. My grandparents Brown’s too. African-American Browns. God’s business. Ok Miss Lori, you got my attention as usual. 🌻
I’m 46- born raised rurally north of Nashville Tennessee USA(it’s our closest big city) *Gravy Explained for my area* We had tomato gravy made from homemade canned tomato’s as a kid and as an adult, tinned tomatoes. It was for breakfast and went with fried corn and bacon 🌽 🥓 and homemade biscuits. It was a trio of enjoyed flavours and I absolutely LOVE IT! I still have to have these 3 together when gardens are coming in Yes- we also had regular bacon gravy, sausage gravy, white gravy, chicken gravy, turkey gravy, pork gravy and CHOCOLATE gravy. Chocolate gravy was a way for my grandmother to give 11 kiddos a sweet treat and use up leftover biscuits. I grew up in an area where we had fresh biscuits with every meal, and so having multiple types of gravy was just a way to feed a lot of loved ones. Typical daily gravy for those who think this or chocolate was common was more like- bacon grease browned till it turned peanut butter in color and then water or milk added- most often - water because milk was expensive. Nowadays-tomato or chocolate gravy is a treat for holidays. Life as a kiddo example: we’d be sitting around at night saying to mama, “I wish we had somethin’ sweet to eat mama.” And she’s tease us and take a pretend nibble of us and say 😋 yummy - you’re sweet!!! And we’d say nooooo maaaaamaaaa... something real!! 🤭 😂 And she’s go whip up something from pantry staples like chocolate gravy ;)
I’ve lived in Texas over 50 years and have never heard of tomato gravy. Oh my! Sounds & looks so unbelievably good & I’m so hungry for home grown tomatoes. Currently I live in desert of West Texas and haven’t had luck growing tomatoes in this sandy, hot area. Believe me! I’ll keep trying.....I miss gardening and canning...p.s. I’ve been watching your channel for about a year and it’s my favorite....I taught nearly 40 years but had to retire due to health...God’s always brings blessings in every situation.... It’s only because of being so ill that I began watching tv/UA-cam and found such kind people (you & mr. brown are my #1)....oh, lori...you have gotten me through some very difficult times .... I could feel it...ya’lls Godliness....your gentle, kind spirit comes through each video...please thank mr. brown also for sharing the Bible and prayers he’s said....God’s definitely working thru ya’ll! P.s. I don’t comment because I know you get so many and you are so busy but I just had to write and tell you the blessing you’ve been for me....thank you and may God continue to guide you & bless you and mr. brown
It’s hard to believe that so many people have never heard of tomato gravy !! I’m 70 years old and we lived off this in the summer time when I was a kid . My mama made the best tomato gravy and Biscuits . We grew our tomato’s and milked our cows Lots of cream and buttermilk to cook things different ways . Killed pigs butchered made fresh sausage about the time tomatoes were playing out for the year . So fresh homage sausage grease and tomatoe gravy with fresh cream and buttermilk biscuits . Brings back memories of a much easier and peaceful time when things were hard But really a great time of life water out of a well bucket cooking on wood stove etc
@@bobvancevance701 Too young? People have been here making their own way since 1500’s continuously. How many hundreds of years does it take to make a tradition? My mother’s side of my family was here before the Europeans ever found this land. I am a registered tribal member of the Choctaw Indian Nation, we have dishes that we still cook on our reservations.. I am sure those may have traditions and maybe some were passed on to make modern dishes that is normal to The whole North American continent The food is actually pretty good, I doubt you have ever had any traditional southern cooking, so your opinion does not matter.
@@jasonsteiner8629 clearly my opinion does matter and this is trashy garbage if you bothered to leave your shitbox town/county/state you might actually get perspective on things. Cooking is something people have been doing since the dawn of time and Americans are really bad at it. butter salt and milk arent seasonings
Seriously, we don't have tomato gravy in Wisconsin. Some Italians from Chicago call the spaghetti sauce "Sunday gravy". Other than that, it is completely foreign. It looks outstanding, though and I would gratefully clean my plate!
Ms Lori. I received your cookbook in the mail today. I am as excited as if it were Christmas. Oh how I love it. I am thrilled I was able to get one. You are such a blessing to me and you and Mr Brown are just tbe sweetest people. I really think we would be great friends if time and space allowed. Stay as true as you always are. God bless you both and all your family. Good health and love to all of you.
I'm 75 born in Ohio-but pretty much grew up in Ga -Dads work-Mother was a supreme cook-we had what she called creamed tomatoes made with a white sauce when ever she made salmon patties-such sweet memories
Thanks Mrs . Lori . For your tomato gravy recipe . I live in South Texas . My Mama made tomato gravy . My Daddy's Mama showed her how to make it . I always use evaporated milk . For my tomato gravy . And my white gravy . Makes the gravy taste creamer . The Lord Bless Both Of You .
I will soon be 65 and I've lived in L.A. (Lower Arkansas) most of my life and I've never heard of this gravy. I think I'll give it try next time we have Backstrap and Rice! YUM! Thank you for sharing! BISCUITS, on the other hand, will require hands-on instruction!
I'm 78 years old and have never heard about tomato gravy. But in the summertime we had almost daily biscuits with milk gravy and sliced tomatoes for Breakfast, yum Thank you for another recipe to try. I'm from the south, South Carolina.
My Granny and I used to take sliced tomatoes (or sometimes cantaloupe) to the restaurants with us and we’d order a gravy biscuit and put the tomatoes or cantaloupe on them. So good! The cantaloupe sounds weird, but it’s delicious on a gravy biscuit!
We called it creamed tomatoes and it was a family favorite. We always had it over buttered biscuits. Even years later when would get together it's still something we would have as we shared memories. We would often have bacon or sausage with it. Thanks for bringing back some happy memories.
As the old Campbell soup commercials used to say, "MMM--MMM-MMM-MMM-MMM!! Boy, does that look delicious! I imagine it would be wonderful over my favorite pasta, spaghetti, too!
I met my husband 56 yrs ago in California. And that's when I tasted tomato gravy. I have been making it for years. My mother in law was from Ohio. Sure is good.
I love tomato gravy granny always made it on the weekends with home fries potatoes yummy, and always home made biscuits I can smell them. Thank you for sharing Ms Lori have a blessed evening stay safe and healthy. 🙏❤
Absolutely delicious pantry meal. Winters when the snow gets too deep. Big plate of that gravy over biscuit or skillet bread or even hoecakes will warm her innards, I guarantee.
That would be our Supper many a day when I was growing up! With six kids growing up, my Moma would make just biscuits and a big pan of Tomato Gravy! Especially2-3 days before a payday! We never knew We were poor until we grew up and she taught us how to stretch a dollar!
Good memories!! My people in Appalachia made this and it never got old. I had 2 aunt's that used to compete to see who could make the best for me and I LOVED it!! I still do tho those aunt's have went on to heaven now but I will always cherish those memories. Tomato gravy a poan of bread and fried wienies was a feast!!
One of my most favorite dishes is to make tomato gravy. I was raised in a blended family, one half being Cajun and the other half backwoods country. In my mind, there is no better combination than these two combined. I learned to make my roux, using saved bacon fat, as dark as possible before adding tomatoes and water only. Salt and pepper to taste. Fresh tomatoes really bring that tomato deliciousness up a to a whole different flavor level. This is served over fresh from the oven homemade buttermilk biscuits. This is one of the things my kids ask for after all these years. You are right, comfort food at its finest.
I have heard of tomato gravy,but never made it. I *always* love tomatoes with my white gravy,so I am sure I would love it 😍!! Oh my goodness,looks delicious!!! Love you guys!!!
This was really nice to see your version of tomato gravy. I've lived down south, two different states Midwest two different states, but I was reared in Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Lancaster, county. Its a PA dutch staple. My mama was Pa. Dutch my Papa was 1st generation italian. I feel I had the best of both worlds. If you have the core ingredients which are a: Fat Flour Tomatoes Milk You can make tomato gravy. You can add what you want and eat it on whatever you want, thats your personal choice. I now live in Missouri. My husband is from Iowa. He never heard of it but I made him the Pa Dutch style and he loves it. TRY IT, ADD WHAT YOU WANT, AND MAKE IT YOUR OWN🍅x
My mother made a tomato gravy with garlic pork roast! She would brown the pork roast in the oven while she would salute onions celery and garlic in pork fat then add 4 cans tomato sauce salt pepper and a little Worchestershire sauce mix it up and pour it on top and around the roast cover it and bake it at 325 for 3 to 3 and a half hours!! Makes the best gravy!!! So good with mashed potatoes and buttered peas!!!
My Papa and Grandma used to make us a breakfast of chocolate gravy and biscuits with canned whip cream with a dot of butter on top! My favorite memories still and now and then I have to make my own version of it!
My mom made us homemade biscuits & chocolate gravy for breakfast on the coldest winter school days. We had to walk over 1/2 mile on a dirt road, then huddle up & wait to catch the bus. School buses only ran on the paved roads back then so they didn't come down old rough dirt roads to pick up kids. Mama set us off on stick to your ribs meals!
I.bet that is an improvement I cannot feature gravy w ot meat . I got Crimini mushrooms this week. I will add those to Ms. Lori's grwvyband delete most rhwr oil an btr. Ha? No offense L.
I've always used milk to make my tomato gravy too Miss Lori. I've never put onions in my tomato gravy before though. I'll have to try that...!! My Mama and my Granny made tomato gravy. My kids grew up loving it too. It's so... good !! 🥰😊😉 Thank you Miss Lori for sharing another delicious recipe with us. 😘❤🍅
I ate tomato gravy as a small kid growing up in virginia and still love it. I turned 79 yesterday and i have lots of home grown tomatoes so i might give it a try.
Miss Lori, I’ve said you have the best recipes out there! This one proves I’m right. I love all of the non-traditional (non-traditional in most areas…) you share and are what I’m looking for. I’ll be making this tonight. Love, love, love it!!
Gravy needs lots of pepper.......lots! Then I pepper the top with more when I serve it! I've never heard of tomatoes gravy, but I'm I'm definitely going to try this recipe! Thanks for sharing!
I had never heard of tomato gravy until five years ago. One of the guides at the deer camp I hunted with in South Alabama made biscuits and tomato gravy for us for breakfast one rainy morning. Wonderful stuff. Fried deer tenderloin went perfectly with it. Yours looks delicious. Makes me wish I had Smell-o-vision on my computer. Thank you for the video. Be well and at peace.
Texas girl, had T G one time, I never forgot how good it was, I've not ever been able to match that wonderful flood of gravy, I'm gonna try this recipe, thanks for sharing it, it looks a lot like what I have in my memory of the only time I got to eat this! This might be it! It was a elderly Mississippi Man that served this up momma my mouths watering just looking at what you've cooked up here! Mmmm! Gods wonderful works to the children of men! Talent!! Gracious! I gotta have some! Thanks again for sharing this, live in the moments there's lots of good one!
My grandmother used to make this and serve over mashed potatoes or fried green tomatoes with biscuits on the side. I am going to have to make this - haven't thought of this for years.
Thank God there are people like you that can keep old time recipes alive and well. That looks amazing, definitely going to make this . I have many tomatoes from the garden right now . Thank you !!!!
I was born and in raised in Virginia (1948) and wife is from North Caroline. Neither of us ever heard of Tomato Gravy. Looks good and we will make tomorrow night. Thank you for this odd recipe.

Mrs. Lori I would eat myself sick on that. How am I supposed to go on with my day now. It will be all I can think about.
Love seeing traditional dishes of America, being from UK 🙂
there are no traditional dishes the country is far too young. This food is disgusting

That looks delicious! I’m a northerner and have never heard of tomato gravy. We always plant tomatoes so I’m definitely making this! Thanks Miss Lori.
I am in Louisiana and I fry up some pork chops and make the gravy in that grease. Tomato gravy and biscuits is good even for breakfast.
Seriously, we don't have tomato gravy in Wisconsin. Some Italians from Chicago call the spaghetti sauce "Sunday gravy". Other than that, it is completely foreign. It looks outstanding, though and I would gratefully clean my plate!
Y'all are going to LOVE Tomato Gravy! SO GOOD on homemade biscuits! I know what I'm making for Supper tonight!
You are going to love this. If you don't like chunky, puree before adding tomatoes. So YUM

Good wholesome God worshipping people. Godbless you all.
My mom made this. I grew up on this delicious southern food.
Takes me back. Best breakfast in the middle of winter with fresh hot biscuits and tomato gravy made with home canned tomatoes. Your pantry is amazing.
What a unique idea! I've never heard of it.😃 May have to give this a try.
God bless all here.
We called it creamed tomatoes and it was a family favorite. We always had it over buttered biscuits. Even years later when would get together it's still something we would have as we shared memories. We would often have bacon or sausage with it. Thanks for bringing back some happy memories.
It was always called creamed tomatoes in our house, too. I don't care what name it goes by, I just call it delicious!
In NC, too, “creamed tomatoes.”
I like creamed tomatoes with cornbread!
Lori I just love your old cast iron skillet 🍳 tomatoe gravy looks delicious 😋.
Yummy! I never had it before, so I will have to try it! Xoxoxo
I'm salivating...Man that looks delicious..Never heard of tomato🍅gravy...
Mississippi in the house! It was just like my Mama was standing there making tomato gravy. Thank you so much!
As the old Campbell soup commercials used to say, "MMM--MMM-MMM-MMM-MMM!! Boy, does that look delicious! I imagine it would be wonderful over my favorite pasta, spaghetti, too!
I love tomatoes and gravy. This looks so good.
Miss Lori looks very good . I no I will be making the tomato gravy. Looks yummy. God Bless you and Mr. Brown.
Looks delicious 😋. I have never heard of it
I live in North Idaho. I'm thankful for you and your husband. God Bless you
I have never heard of this. But I have garden tomatoes coming out my ears. I’ll be making this tomorrow morning!
I met my husband 56 yrs ago in California. And that's when I tasted tomato gravy. I have been making it for years. My mother in law was from Ohio. Sure is good.
Have never heard of tomato gravy! Looks like a must try! Cute, cute drawings of you and Mr. Brown at the end!
I like your haircut! Maybe I'm behind the curve but wanted to acknowledge it. And this gravy is life, girl! Indeed! Amen!
Thank you

Looks fantastic
I have never seen tomato gravy before, looks delish!!
OMG Mrs. Lori, that knock at the door is me!😊 That looks absolutely delicious. I could just have the biscuits and tomatoe gravy.
This was really nice to see your version of tomato gravy. I've lived down south, two different states Midwest two different states, but I was reared in Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Lancaster, county. Its a PA dutch staple.
My mama was Pa. Dutch my Papa was 1st generation italian. I feel I had the best of both worlds. If you have the core ingredients which are a:
Fat
Flour
Tomatoes
Milk
You can make tomato gravy. You can add what you want and eat it on whatever you want, thats your personal choice.
I now live in Missouri. My husband is from Iowa. He never heard of it but I made him the Pa Dutch style and he loves it.
TRY IT, ADD WHAT YOU WANT, AND MAKE IT YOUR OWN🍅x
It is delicious my great aunt made it an taught my mother now my wife knows how to make it i get to enjoy every once in awhile.
That looks fabulous. Another way I can use all the fresh tomatoes I'm getting. It would be good on rice and noodles too.😁👍🍅
Four biscuits are not enough! Great day, it looks good!
Outstanding!
We always uses just Milk and Lard or Bacon fat. I’m going to try Evaporated Milk. Yumm
My mother made a tomato gravy with garlic pork roast! She would brown the pork roast in the oven while she would salute onions celery and garlic in pork fat then add 4 cans tomato sauce salt pepper and a little Worchestershire sauce mix it up and pour it on top and around the roast cover it and bake it at 325 for 3 to 3 and a half hours!! Makes the best gravy!!! So good with mashed potatoes and buttered peas!!!
My Papa and Grandma used to make us a breakfast of chocolate gravy and biscuits with canned whip cream with a dot of butter on top! My favorite memories still and now and then I have to make my own version of it!
My mom made us homemade biscuits & chocolate gravy for breakfast on the coldest winter school days. We had to walk over 1/2 mile on a dirt road, then huddle up & wait to catch the bus. School buses only ran on the paved roads back then so they didn't come down old rough dirt roads to pick up kids. Mama set us off on stick to your ribs meals!
That sounds amazing!!💗
Would love to know the recipe
I would like to have that recipe too
I will try to figure one out! I have made it many times but without a recipe! Will not be right away but will do it.
I’ve never heard of this- but willing to try it, you make everything looks so good!
I thought the same. Will try, thank you!

I've always used milk to make my tomato gravy too Miss Lori. I've never put onions in my tomato gravy before though. I'll have to try that...!! My Mama and my Granny made tomato gravy. My kids grew up loving it too. It's so... good !! 🥰😊😉 Thank you Miss Lori for sharing another delicious recipe with us. 😘❤🍅
I ate tomato gravy as a small kid growing up in virginia and still love it. I turned 79 yesterday and i have lots of home grown tomatoes so i might give it a try.
I hope you do, and enjoy every bite!
Well now isn’t that interesting ,something new to try when my tomatoes ripen.Thank you miss Lori! Have a great day.
Miss Lori, I’ve said you have the best recipes out there! This one proves I’m right. I love all of the non-traditional (non-traditional in most areas…) you share and are what I’m looking for. I’ll be making this tonight. Love, love, love it!!
Thank you

I had never heard of tomato gravy but it sure does look delicious Lori 😋
I am from Alabama and had it growing up. This video made me hungry for it. Thank you for sharing.Salt and pepper shakers are so cute😍
Gravy needs lots of pepper.......lots! Then I pepper the top with more when I serve it! I've never heard of tomatoes gravy, but I'm I'm definitely going to try this recipe! Thanks for sharing!
That is some fine looking gravy and biscuits. Making this soon, maybe with pork chops. 😋
Makes my mouth water! Yummy!
I have never had tomato gravy, but it sounds nummy!!! Can't wait to try it!!!
I LOVE TOMATO GRAVY. MY MAMA MADE IT WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL AND I AM 75 NOW. I DON'T PUT ONIONS IN MINE. I MAY HAVE TO TRY IT.
I had never heard of tomato gravy until five years ago. One of the guides at the deer camp I hunted with in South Alabama made biscuits and tomato gravy for us for breakfast one rainy morning. Wonderful stuff. Fried deer tenderloin went perfectly with it.
Yours looks delicious. Makes me wish I had Smell-o-vision on my computer.
Thank you for the video. Be well and at peace.
Looks delicious, making this for supper tonight! 🍀
Texas girl, had T G one time, I never forgot how good it was, I've not ever been able to match that wonderful flood of gravy, I'm gonna try this recipe, thanks for sharing it, it looks a lot like what I have in my memory of the only time I got to eat this! This might be it! It was a elderly Mississippi Man that served this up momma my mouths watering just looking at what you've cooked up here! Mmmm! Gods wonderful works to the children of men! Talent!! Gracious! I gotta have some! Thanks again for sharing this, live in the moments there's lots of good one!
My grandmother used to make this and serve over mashed potatoes or fried green tomatoes with biscuits on the side. I am going to have to make this - haven't thought of this for years.
LOOKS WONDERFUL. THANK YOU. 😚
I love tomato gravy . Remember my Mama making it .

So it's basically like a sawmill gravy but with maters instead of sausage? Looks AMAZING! Thanks for the idea, and God Bless!
