      American bacon is different than European bacon, though. It's much crispier (and better, imo).

      Believe it or not Alicia, your "bacon" is NOT. BACON. Trust me, I've been to England a couple of times and had rashers and "back bacon". It's not. bacon. It's a little slice of ham, pseudo-shaped to LOOK like bacon. You'd understand if you've ever tried American bacon.

      This feels more like the specialty fare of a Denny's or IHOP than any "traditional breakfast"
      I'd say the "Classic American Breakfast (tm)" consists of simply eggs, bacon and/or sausage, then your choice of toast (with butter and jam), pancakes or waffles (with butter and maple syrup).
      Most of the stuff here just looked sickly sweet to me. With the exception of the biscuits and gravy, which just looked dry, having half as much gravy as I'd expect.

      the best way to make biscuits and gravy is to make the biscuits by hand or at the very least get a good brand of pre-made ones. Also using a well seasoned sausage, smoked sausage I think is the best and use a good southern gravy.

    • @emdotambient
      @emdotambient 5 років тому +2

      @@mikeyunovapix7181 Any spicy breakfast sausage will do, usually not smoked, but that provides the flavor and the fat to make the gravy in (as in you don't add sausage to white gravy, you build the gravy in the skillet where your sausage is). I prefer very spicy hot sausage, and top the gravy off with a lot of black pepper. And there's no point buying pre-made biscuits, they're just about the simplest bread product to make, and extremely quick to throw together: 5 minutes to get the dough going and what, 15 to 20 min to bake?

      The gravy looked a little to thick too. I like sausage gravy on the thicker side, but that gravy looked like it could hold up a spoon. Plain, blueberry or chocolate chip pancakes are the norm. Although I've seen others we mostly like the tried and true. I have seen some people who put peanut butter on pancakes, or flavored syrups, but maple syrup and butter is the absolute best. Hash brown casserole looks nothing like what was served. Waffles usually come with butter and maple syrup, but on special occasions cherries in syrup topped with whipped cream.

      It's what the cowboys ate on trail for breakfast.
      Mom always said that a cowboys reputation was bad based on his sour dough biscuits and gravy. So that when they went to bed at night they slept with there jar of starter with them under the blankets to keep it alive on cold nights. And they would keep a few milk goats around for the milk and have a mobile Chicken Coop attached to the Chuck Wagon for eggs. And that you only ate twice a day once in the morning and in the evening. That the Chuck wagons made breakfast then set out to find the next campsite and then started dinner so that when the cowboys and all the slowly moving cow ( you don't want them to lose weight on the way to sell them since they are sold by the pound) finally made it down the road a few miles. My grandfather is old enough to have been on a few cattle trails. Hay even after WWII they're was people still traveling by wagons trains. There was a lot of reasons why but there was gas rationing during the war. People seem to think that as soon as cars became mass-produced that everybody had one. Which is not true my grandfather at age 8 was the first person in his entire area to own a car or have a driver's license he even got a commercial driver's license so he could drive the school bus. When I think about how hard working that boy was to make that much money at age 8 during the Depression and the Dust Bowl. The model T cost $300. I didn't even have that much money at 8. I only made $60 a year. And spent it all on foot long hot dogs.

      Yes. And no. The collective diet is worse. Used to involve far more fresh and natural. Corn syrup is frankly evil. Organic sugar? Few calories of that won't pack on the pounds. Regular Dominoes even WILL in similar amounts. A soda aka pop used to be a weekly treat maybe, with a scoop of ice cream even. Now those are often daily, or multiple daily events.
      People used to eat far less meat, far more potatoes (Fresh, mashed, baked, maybe a little pat of butter or tea spoon or two of sour cream) and vegetables for lunch and dinner. Well back, white bread was not common. Children even in the sixties were not being raised on chicken nuggets typically. Vegetables happened when I was a kid. They took up at least a third of the plate, and were NOT just corn or potatoes. (Those were considered starch). That took up max 1/3 of a plate, and meat went in the other, and was NOT a 40 ounce hunk! More like half a chicken breast.

      And the corporate strength in America is too strong convincing most to eat way more than they should and to eat many more different items. The bacon & egg breakfast that is so famous in America was started by one company trying to sell fatty pork that wouldn't sell. There is a backlash but the constant advertising and tricks they use to help create addictions to their foods (corn syrup, massive amounts of sugar, massive amounts of salt, massive amounts of fat, MSG, and many others) over powers a lot of people's best efforts to eat healthy.

    @SunyiSideUp 8 років тому +121

    Always remember that you have a mediocre restaurant version & not necessarily how Americans eat said dish. Biscuits & gravy, for instance... Should be a yummy buttermilk biscuit (which is a fast-baked bread, not a scone, which we also have, or a cookie, which is what you call biscuits), topped with sausage gravy, which should taste really good. Also, it's usually part of a breakfast, rather than breakfast by itself. These are also all like special breakfast foods. Like, a typical breakfast is a bowl of cereal or oatmeal if you have time, or like a granola bar/muffin/piece of fruit and coffee/juice if you don't (because you can grab it and go.) Most Americans probably skip breakfast on a typical day. I rarely actually have breakfast.
    Also, please stop calling Southern-style biscuits "scones." We know what scones are. We have them. They are the same thing you call scones. Our biscuits are more related to other dinner rolls/table breads. It's a small, fast-baked bread, and that's all. The Southern-style ones are generally fluffy (the one you had.) Some Southern-style biscuits can be sweet, but most are just plain bread. You add butter, jam, honey, or put meat in the middle like a sandwich. It's not a cookie, it's not a scone. It's a small bread.

      I've lived in the US my whole life mostly in small to midsize towns, and I've lived in the deep south and the Midwest, and the idea that there's a such thing as a 'real' America is bullshit. All of the US is the "real America", and rural food isn't better than more urbane fair. It's all just a matter of your preferences. The idea that people in small towns are nicer is just bullshit too. Small towns are often small-minded, judgmental, and boring. Furthermore, some are so devoid of culture that chain restaurants are all they've got. You'll actually find MORE unique, privately owned eateries in a large town.

    American breakfasts are usually less fancy. The are some combination of the following:
    Pancakes and waffles come with butter and maple syrup. Fruit is mostly a personal preference or found at IHOP.
    Oatmeal with whatever you want on it. Often eaten in cooler weather.
    Breakfast sausage in link or patty form. Much like bangers in the UK.
    Biscuits and gravy are accurate, but often are made with bits of breakfast sausage patties.
    Bacon and Eggs. Eggs prepared to your preference.
    Toast and your choice of jelly (like a wiggly form of jam).
    Cereal and milk. Lots of choices there.
    Hashbrowns in the North, Grits in the South (unless you're in a Waffle House).

    • @Rystefn

      In the United States, we have Jelly, Jam, and Preserves. They are not the same thing.
      *Jelly* = sweetened and thickened fruit juice. Should be translucent and have no visible impurities or bits. Consistency of stiff jello.
      *Jam* = sweetened and thickened fruit juice with bits of puréed fruit manually added back in. Somewhat translucent with blobs in it. Not as thick or stiff as jelly.
      *Preserves* = sweetened and thickened reduced whole fruit. Chunks of fruit throughout, shouldn't be able to be seen through. Can be so chunky it's hard to spread evenly. Should be the least sweet of the three.
      You might also see the word *Marmalade* such as orange marmalade. That's more-or-less the same thing as jam but only used with things like citrus fruits.

    Maybe a 6 egg omelet stuffed with bacon, sautéed onions and bell peppers, sharp cheddar, topped by more cheddar and sour cream. Fired potatoes on the side, with a small orange juice and lots of coffee. If I'm still hungry, I'll order a short stack of pancakes.

    It wasn’t until my Mom decided she’d make biscuits and gravy for dinner one night - where she used *good quality* biscuits from the store, and made the gravy from scratch - that I realized my true love for the dish.

      We don't tend to mix sweet and savoury as much here Gabrielle and it's dumplings on stew which are savoury. When I've tried stuff from the US before the problem has always been it's far too sweet.

      @Barbara Pugh - The biscuits in biscuits and gravy shouldn't be sweet. If they are, somebody's done something wrong.

    You Guys really need an International House of Pancakes (IHOP) in Dublin.....
    Or at least a Waffle House. :)
    BTW, biscuits are supposed to be white, light and buttery and swimming in hot sausage gravy or creamed beef (same as sausage gravy but ground beef instead of sausage).

    That "American" hash looks like someone threw up in the skillet and decided to turn the stove on in the morning to cook it.
    (btw I'm from the US and I've never seen that. At least that's not hash to me.)

      Not every country has our cereal. Suddenly every cereal in every country is a U.S. brand? Since when?

      Oh sorry, I thought you were just talking about any kind of cereal, not US cereal. For me cereal means anything that is a grain with milk poured on it.

      Cereal includes oatmeal and cream of wheat.

    Real American breakfast - Biscuits and Gravy - south of the Ohio River. When your waitress is named 'Brandy' and she has a neck tattoo, smells like an ashtray: you have arrived.

  • @Mrsg123
    @Mrsg123 7 років тому +4

    I think a classic American breakfast would include some combination of the following.
    buttermilk pancakes, biscuits and gravy, waffles with fruit on top, bacon, sausage, eggs, omelet with veggies and cheese, steel cut oatmeal with fruit, toast and jam, just plain fruit, maybe a muffin or english muffin or french toast
