Well I made my biscuits and gravy with only left over bacon fat. No sausage or bacon and THEN looked up your recipe and AFTER watched your video. Love your explanation at the end. I m wondering if EVERY state has at least ancestors who ate this. I am pretending this is the low carb version as i wait for everyone to wake up. 4 out of 5 over 50 years old so it will be a hit.😝 I love sharing your videos.
One of my favorite dishes for as long as I can remember and at my age I've had a lot of practice at remembering. Fifty years ago, when I was in the USAF, there was a little cafe in Wichita that served a "country boy" breakfast -- sausage gravy and biscuits, fresh sliced tomatoes, and coffee -- $1. Half a century later and that is still my favorite breakfast.
Growing up in Georgia my grandmother right before sun rise on the farm made this sausage gravy every morning, and from scratch buttermilk biscuits, eggs, and grits. One of three hearty meals for workers each day. My grandfather would eat a whole Vidalia Onion like an apple with his breakfast.
I made this for the family for breakfast this morning. It was a huge hit! They were very happy to see that I’d made enough for later. Be well, stay kind and blessings to all~
As a person from the Ozarks, this is a very good version of our regional sausage gravy. I note that we often top with lots of black pepper and Tobasco. Hope you are well, Chef J. I watch your videos all the time!
I just made this with your buttermilk recipe today for bunch and OMG! Hands down BEST country gravy I’ve EVER had!!! This will be a staple in my house!
Made this in Kentucky, family loved it. Every Chef John recipe ive made has because a staple in our house; Honey Sriracha Chicken wings, grilled shrimp, cornish hens with cranberry stuffing, and now this awesome recipe! Keep the recipes coming!🍴🍛
Chef John! Just made this at home, it is awesome! Only difference, I used double sausage ad no bacon just because it's what I had. Thanks for the help!
Simple fresh ingredients. Chef John keeper of the flame. I worked under a French Chef in 1965 that patiently taught me Escoffier's 5 mother sauces and at 70 years old I still fall back on my knife skills and ability to use these sauces everyday. Watching the true love of cooking by Chef John is priceless.
Fantastic.Last night the meat we defrosted for dinner had a terrible smell and we decided we had better pass on it. The only unfrozen meat we had in the house was a bit of bacon and some sausage. We used this recipe and wow! We had it over a baked potato and rlovedd it. We had the left-over on toast for breakfast. Next week we will have it over your buttermilk biscuits We live in Australia and have nothing like American breakfast sausage, but our Australian beef sausage did a great job.
I just made this and it’s by far the best gravy I’ve ever had. Just keep stirring and look at how much the meat and gravy is bubbling to match the temperature. Soooooo good.
Chef John, I love you. I failed miserably to make this a few times but I followed your recipe closely this time (My roux looked totally different so I got nervous) and it came out incredibly. It was good once it was all together but simmering it gave it a depth of flavor that got me a little emotional. This is the recipe I'll use to impress my girlfriend's parents when we visit them later this year. You're the man and if I receive their blessing, you, me and the comment section should know, it's cause Chef John put me on some game in the kitchen!
Yes, it's true. Due to the grueling schedule of a jet-setting, food blogging, celebrity chef, I was forced to use canned biscuit dough. It's okay though, because I posted my recipe link in the video for the best buttermilk biscuits ever! Check it out!
Success! My biscuits and gravy came out perfect! I used a jar lid to cut my biscuits and I also used the cheese grater tip! It was all super easy to make. Now to decide what my next cooking adventure will be!
i dont see why people say they need help from watching these past 11-2 am, i discovered him in the middle of the night, now i watch all the videos i can to make wonderful food for my friends and family, i dont need help, im fine as is great video sir ^^
These are by far my favorite food/cooking tutorial videos. I have been using your Coq au Vin recipe for the last year and I absolutely love it. Your narration is so simple but so relevant and useful. Thank you!
I had this for the first time when I worked for Florida Hosptial (which has THE best employee cafe ever!) And I had this for the first time! It is goooood! Then I had to move back to NYC and allll I could think about is this gravy! Lol thanks Chef John, gonna try and make it and serve my city friends. They will fall in love with it too!
I made this yesterday. I fried a chicken breast, placed bacon and melted cheddar on top, and smothered it in this gravy and place it all on a biscuit. Arteries....... clogging, breath........ shorting, blackness.........coming. Best........death..........EVER!
Gosh. When I went to basic boot camp, we had these *every morning!* I always asked for extra, and the chef was more than willing! Now I finally learned how to learn how to make this stuff (esp. from my favorite chef :) Respectfully, C/CMSgt. Wesley Chiu
Maria Callous nah you get the nice thick slice of tomato you picked before breakfast and sprinkle a little salt on it and it's just amazing! You can even throw a slice of your bacon on top
+Maria In the South they do. Sometimes they fry them green, sometimes they fry them red, sometimes they slice and salt them or put a little sugar on top instead. Tomatoes are actually a fruit and, in a lot of places, are treated as such. 😊
if you want a real treat. fry up pork chops in bacon grease. in the pan add flour to make roux. make more roux than usual brown roux until almost burnt. add cold milk. bring to boil cook to desired thickness. you will forget to eat the pork chops the gravy is so good.
Might need to report this. 😁 I'm out of sausage but I do have bacon and pork chops. Today my taste buds shall be next to the gods. Thanks you fellow chiefs~
Update. I just made this. For my biscuits I lightly pan fried them then drizzled honey on them. For the gravy I used sweet hickory bacon. Crispyfied and crushed. Then I fried up the pork chop in the grease with a healthy sprinkle of pink Himalayan, black pepper, a dash or two of chilli powder, and 'course some cayanne. I roux the aftermath and chopped up some leeks and white mushrooms. I believe I'm typing this from heaven. 😇
when I first learned to make country gravy ,,we killed and smoked our own hogs.and rendered the lard..I milked a cow and made my buttermilk . I cooked the meat which had plenty of fat then ( no butter needed ) cooked flour in grease added salt, pepper and whole milk. The biscuits were made from flour in a " biscuit bowl " which always had flour and a sifter in it. to which i went to the back porch got a measure of lard from the five gallon lard stand with my hand , (could eyeball all ingredients then ) placed lard in the bowl , added pure buttermilk ( homemade isn't as sour as store bought ) lightly mixed a soft dough by hand and cut out biscuits and baked in a 500 d oven in a iron skillet.
Buttermilk is Disgusting to Drink, but YUMMY in Cooking ! And I was raised on a Ranch eating this time honored artery clogging food, You know all the good old home made food to me it seems People lived longer, but today with all the ultra processed & FAKE Food, no wonder people are getting sick & Dying ! I miss the Good ole Days ! Everything is going to shit now !
I made this, this morning, added some shredded cheddar cheese as well. Holy mother of richness... Extremely tasty, but a very rare breakfast treat for sure.
I'll see your biscuits and gravy and raise you a Dixie Benedict. To make this, you open a large biscuit and top each piece with a cooked sausage patty, then top each with a medium fried egg. Then slather on the good old sausage gravy.
I go to a little café about 5 minutes away from me. This is on the menu and is one of my favorites. If you eat this breakfast, it stay with you until the middle of the afternoon.
I'm hooked on your channel. I've been cooking for 17 years professionally and I love your style. No numbers and measurements, just suggested values and discretion. Awesome. On another video someone had commented on how soothing your voice was. I see it. It's almost like you are doing a guided meditation, but with food. Keep up the good work.
I'll admit, I've jacked up some gravy before. I've made gravy my dog wouldn't eat. Who the hell uses chicken bullion in a white gravy?? I guessed and kept adding stuff to make it look right haha. Thanks to you Chef John, I just made the best gravy my man who just worked a 13 hour shift has ever had lol. THANK YOU!
Making my boyfriend Biscuits and gravy tomorrow morning! Thanks Chef John, you haven't let me down yet! Love your voice and all the great tips! You are the only chef I have watched that makes me actually get up and cook!
I mixed some fresh pasta in my gravy tonight.. Oh my it was uber uber tasty...smoked bacon...chorizo... shallots and garlic...Oh and a chicken stock cube..
So THAT's what people in the States mean when they talk about biscuits and gravy. Thanks, from the UK, for solving this mystery for me. We have biscuits, we have gravy, but they look nothing like this and we certainly wouldn't eat them together.
+animalmother556x45 I like to throw a fried egg that's still a little runny on top of my B&G, just to rounds things out. It's not breakfast without eggs.
This type of dish reminds me of a good curry... It might not be the most photogenic dish but it tastes damn good... My dad used to say "If you don't like biscuits and gravy, your not American."
RealLifeVlog guess I'm not American, bread with moisture is too weird for me, same reason I don't like french toast, I like my bread dry and springy, not soggy ewwww
Chloe Coleman LOL I understand where your coming from. This is a dish you don't want to eat to often because it's horrible for you but it's a classic comfort food in the states.
You can replace the Sausage and Bacon with "Dried Beef" and you have the old military standby of Creamed Chipped Beef or "S.O.S." It all tastes damned good.
+Mark T Im with you, Mark...hang em high!!! When i was a child we stayed with some people for a while, the wife, Carol.... added peas.... ::shudder:: dang near ruined it for me forever, and i love S.O.S. she put those little green martians in EVERYTHING... yech.
Love your videos!! And you're right.. it looks delicious lol bt if I'd never had it before.. I'd be like eeeww!! You got my tummy growling. I thnk I can make it now. You help make it look so easy! Thank you!! I will be trying your turkey recipe. This will be my first time Thanksgiving dinner, I cook, bt never before a turkey.. this will be fun!
Yummy! Growing up in the Southeast, I ate country sausage gravy over homemade biscuits many mornings. Ok, we had fresh honey too which was great over biscuits as well.
Robert Argo this is totally biscuits and gravy. Had it growing up my entire life. Although he fancied it up a little bit with the bacon. Usually only used sausage.
I was in the Army in the late 60's. The S.O.S. gravy was made with hamburger. I loved it. I did some research on this some time ago. The Army used chipped beef up until WW2, but switched to hamburger. Your cooks were an exception, I guess, unless you were "brown boot". The Navy uses chipped beef, which is what S.O.S. should be made with. Biscuits and gravy can be made with usually pork sausage gravy, but can be chipped beef, hamburger, or bacon or a combination. I combine bacon and pork sausage, no onion, but lots of black pepper.
Mmmmmm...... SOS! Lovely memories of my childhood, growing up on Army bases! Our Mess Sergeants used both chipped beef and ground beef (not together) and it was wonderful. Many was the morning we would head out to school early so we could slip into the mess kitchen and get a heaping plateful with a fried egg on top. Made my day!
I'm from Northern NJ and never tried biscuits and gravy until I joined the Coast Guard. It looks weird but tastes amazing. I'm going to try this awesome recipe. Thanks!
I'm glad all them city folks is too smart to eat this. That means they's more fer me. Sausage gravy is NOT ugly Chef john. It's beautiful. A work of art. The best damn thing on earth. Nearly.
I think it's one of those recipes that changes based on time and place. My pappy called sawmill gravy on toast SOS and he learned it in the Airforce in the late 1940s.
I've never tried putting bacon in this kind of gravy before, but i just did and it's amazing... especially when you make up some more crisp strips and sprinkle it over the top! Absolute fatty heaven.
There are a few people I like to check out when I want to learn how to make new dishes. Food Wishes is one of my go to youtuber that I check out. His videos make it so easy to try something new
start the bacon & onion 1st. In 5 minutes explain to everyone in the house what the mouth watering smell is, while adding the sausage or dried / chipped beef, aka s#&% on a shingle / biscuit . don't forget a pinch of instant coffee and a few drops of kitchen bouquet . serve with eggs, hash browns for full cardiac blockage. Awesome!

I'm a Yankee and I make sausage gravy (even make grits) but I can't believe I never thought of adding bacon! Great idea
"Its not the most beautiful thing to look at" I disagree, sir. That is a thing of beauty to behold and taste!

I grew up on this. My grandmother's gravy was so thick you could stand a fork in it. I'd add some sage and a little more pepper, but this is classic!
Made this last week and it went great with the biscuits. It'll go even better with the country fried steaks.
if you want a real treat. fry up pork chops in bacon grease. in the pan add flour to make roux. make more roux than usual brown roux until almost burnt. add cold milk. bring to boil cook to desired thickness. you will forget to eat the pork chops the gravy is so good.

Then I fried up the pork chop in the grease with a healthy sprinkle of pink Himalayan, black pepper, a dash or two of chilli powder, and 'course some cayanne. I roux the aftermath and chopped up some leeks and white mushrooms.

I cooked the meat which had plenty of fat then ( no butter needed ) cooked flour in grease added salt, pepper and whole milk. The biscuits were made from flour in a " biscuit bowl " which always had flour and a sifter in it. to which i went to the back porch got a measure of lard from the five gallon lard stand with my hand , (could eyeball all ingredients then ) placed lard in the bowl , added pure buttermilk ( homemade isn't as sour as store bought ) lightly mixed a soft dough by hand and cut out biscuits and baked in a 500 d oven in a iron skillet.
that sounded awesome like something straight out of a Laura Ingles novel
No joke, I would pay $100 for that plate of food.

Use what ever you want, no right or wrong cooking is about passion and learning.
You can replace the Sausage and Bacon with "Dried Beef" and you have the old military standby of Creamed Chipped Beef or "S.O.S."

After all..you are the boss of all the milk and flour you toss. Thanks Sherrif John !!!
The ghost of my grandmother screamed when you put the onions in there.
Patrick Durham mine screamed when he put the cayenne in there
I was wondering what the sound was. I thought it might be the pipes.
Mine screamed when there was no Worcestershire sauce in there
The onions are essential.
@Bev Fo Says who? Who crowned you king? To say y'all are from the south y'all sure do have bland taste buds
Whaaaa, I've never had this but I crave it all the time and it looks so appetizing to me
Juat made it i loved the cheyenne idea...had to steal it
I LOVE Chef John. I watch videos every single day, ha ha.
I always add a touch if fresh grated nutmeg for an awesome kick. Now I'm hungry!
Yummy! Growing up in the Southeast, I ate country sausage gravy over homemade biscuits many mornings. Ok, we had fresh honey too which was great over biscuits as well.
I just bought some fresh sausage today with this recipe in mind...I'm cheating with the biscuits--letting the "dough boy" make them. ~enjoyyyyy.
I love me some biscuits and gravy. One of my all time favorites. Breakfast, lunch or dinner. I can have it anytime day or night.
The SOS they fed us in the Army was made with Chipped Beef....was good !!
Naw, was a bellie filler, not like moms cookn and this is not real biscuits and gravy, where is the sweetness?
Robert Argo this is totally biscuits and gravy. Had it growing up my entire life. Although he fancied it up a little bit with the bacon. Usually only used sausage.
I was in the Army in the late 60's. The S.O.S. gravy was made with hamburger. I loved it. I did some research on this some time ago. The Army used chipped beef up until WW2, but switched to hamburger. Your cooks were an exception, I guess, unless you were "brown boot". The Navy uses chipped beef, which is what S.O.S. should be made with. Biscuits and gravy can be made with usually pork sausage gravy, but can be chipped beef, hamburger, or bacon or a combination. I combine bacon and pork sausage, no onion, but lots of black pepper.
what is chipped beef?
Mmmmmm...... SOS! Lovely memories of my childhood, growing up on Army bases! Our Mess Sergeants used both chipped beef and ground beef (not together) and it was wonderful. Many was the morning we would head out to school early so we could slip into the mess kitchen and get a heaping plateful with a fried egg on top. Made my day!
This is 2020 and I just watched this and drooled.
I'm definitely making this for brkfst! 😋
That's not ugly; that's sexy.
I had never even heard of this until I moved to Texas, now I love it.
That's what my dad used to call "shit on a shingle" an old Army staple. lol
“Shit on a shingle” is chipped beef on toast. Similar though.
@@Jmike12345 Chipped beef in the Navy, Army was generally Ground beef
I'm from Northern NJ and never tried biscuits and gravy until I joined the Coast Guard. It looks weird but tastes amazing. I'm going to try this awesome recipe. Thanks!
I'm so hungry, but I'm trying to stay healthy:(
I'm glad all them city folks is too smart to eat this. That means they's more fer me.
Sausage gravy is NOT ugly Chef john. It's beautiful. A work of art. The best damn thing on earth. Nearly.
My father used to make this for me all the time. Back when he was in the Army he said they used to call it SOS, or shit on a shingle
SOS is made with a chipped beef gravy put on top of toast (the shingle). Not nearly as good as this concoction.
I think it's one of those recipes that changes based on time and place. My pappy called sawmill gravy on toast SOS and he learned it in the Airforce in the late 1940s.
I've never tried putting bacon in this kind of gravy before, but i just did and it's amazing... especially when you make up some more crisp strips and sprinkle it over the top! Absolute fatty heaven.
i havent ate this yet but i already know that this is my favourite breakfast in the world
It’s a dish only a mother could love ❤️😝. Well done and delicious 😋
NEVER IN My life, have I ever heard of putting onions in cream gravy
It's nice to realize one can still learn new things.
it's a bechamel based sauce, he could have added nutmeg and still been right. Although, I wouldn't put onions in it either. I like the cayenne though.
There are a few people I like to check out when I want to learn how to make new dishes. Food Wishes is one of my go to youtuber that I check out. His videos make it so easy to try something new
I have everything but the breakfast sausage. However, I do have Cambodian Sausage... wish me luck!
Try adding some brown sugar to the sausage when browning.
Cambodian sausage taste different though 🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭
I am making this. I've always wondered how-to on this dish. Great recipe because Chef John makes it easy. Thanks.
start the bacon & onion 1st. In 5 minutes explain to everyone in the house what the mouth watering smell is, while adding the sausage or dried / chipped beef, aka s#&% on a shingle / biscuit . don't forget a pinch of instant coffee and a few drops of kitchen bouquet . serve with eggs, hash browns for full cardiac blockage. Awesome!
