Food looks great and a petfect place to go. Chocolate gravy is an old timey, easy to make Southern dish. Usually, you pour the gravy over the biscuits like you do white peppered gravy. Also, look up tomato gravy online. It is also a Southern thing and very good. Tangy, but good. Nancy from Arkansas
At 54 yrs young I grew up on chocolate gravy as a Saturday/ Sunday morning treat every Summer staying with my grandmother. We're from middle TN born and raised here and it's a classic Southern Heritage part of our lives. It was special❤
We were raised on chocolate gravy and biscuits. I guess it must be a regional thing because here in Alabama, it’s easy to find. So glad y’all got to experience it! Love y’all! ❤️
I was born in southern middle Tennessee and we’ve been eating chocolate gravy forever! I make it every Christmas Eve breakfast. Try this recipe!

Add cocoa, flour, and sugar. Cook two minutes. Add milk and whisk. Bring to boil and boil 2 minutes. Reduce to simmer and add vanilla. Simmer until thick. Cool slightly. Split biscuits then spoon chocolate gravy over the top. Enjoy!
Neat! Whst a great place! I love making Pineapple UpsideDown Cake and biscuits from scratch. Yum 😋 looking forward to making an afternoon visit in the Fall 😊 love the story of Brooks family! So beautiful!😊
Oh my goodness….I LOVE chocolate gravy and my mom made it every Saturday morning when I was growing up. I can’t believe you have never eaten it!!!! It’s delicious!
Your foods looked so yum. The BLT and the omelette looked really good. I can always eat fries and biscuits and gravy. Looked delish. I also liked when you tasted the jellys. They all looked good... thanks for taking us along. God bless.
wow ya the store is kool old school very neat . that diner very kool little place , looks like good food too, i wish you had done this video last week we were down in the Pigeon forge area we would have gone there but we had to leave last Thursday, gotta tell you guys though we loved it down there and we will be back. that store / mill and diner will definitely be going on our to do list for next time. good video , enjoy watching keep them coming so our list can of things to do will grow. thank you an God Bless
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun oh yes we will definitely. 9h ya and that chocolate gravy very interesting stuff but looks very good too same with all those Kool different jelly flavors too. We r leaving forward to our next trip down there.
My grandmother would make chocolate gravy when i was young but hers was called Poor Do . They were so poor they made Do . Ours was not thick. She used butter, cocoa powder, sugar,and vanilla , made a roux... and thicken with flour but ours is a thin gravy. Pourable. The best for buiscuts and pancakes
I was raised on chocolate gravy and biscuits. The way we had them was mama cooked a huge pan of biscuits and we split them open and buttered all of them right in the middle, then she cooked a great big pot of chocolate gravy and we would chop the biscuits up all over our plates and then pour that chocolate gravy all over them. We would have sausage or bacon or ham with them but I tell you sausage chopped up and sprinkled all over the top of that gravy really set it off from everything else. I raise my kids on it too and they still love it to this day. Everybody we knew ate chocolate gravy. At least on my daddy’s side of the family. And my daddy side of the family was all over the Holler that we lived in and in Summertown and Lawrenceburg which were the two cities adjoining, one on each side of us. Love your videos. God bless y’all.
Melissa that is so awesome! Love hearing memories of how people were raised! My mamaw made a pan of biscuits and fixed gravy every morning and the butter was always on the table. I miss sitting at that table. - Brooks
If I just hadn't eaten a beef and bean 🌯 for breakfast in these wee hours of the morning y'all would've made me hungry! Really enjoyed your video and thank you for taking me along with you! Those jams looked so yummy and delicious and the mill was really very interesting! I wish someone would bring me to Tennessee but, they won't! Please eat a biscuit for me when you make some! Love y'all and God Bless!❤️❤️
Christy i would love for you to try my Moms Chocolate dumplings they are awesome. Being from South Carolina this make the best chocolate gravy. We also call them chocolate rolls. We will be stopping to eat at Owen's this Thursday March 14th. I just love you and Brooks. Have a Blessed Day
I was born and raised in East Tennessee and I feel a little deprived. I’ve never had chocolate gravy. 😂 I had never even heard of it until I was much older.
tried / trying the places you have suggested , we cant decide who has the best pizza , sparta Tn has marioochis pizza on the square , always crowded , and telico plains bakery, telico Tn , give us your opinion
Brooks has arthritis in his hands and often finds it difficult to hold things the way average folks would. Have a blessed weekend and we appreciate your watching.
