Recently we went to the South in the US and had our eyes opened to a bunch of amazing new foods, but there was one thing that we really wanted to introduce to people back home! So we got the help of a London-based cook from the South, and brought authentic Biscuits and Gravy to a British High School!

I am a Southern American. Some years ago I met a British man online who was horrified at the idea of putting gravy on biscuits when I mentioned it. I tried to explain what American biscuits and sausage gravy are but he was still skeptical. I promised to make it for him if we ever met in person, and long story short I eventually did just that. Now, we've been married for almost ten years. I'm sure he married me for the biscuits and gravy.

Awesome. When an American can convince a skeptical Brit to try something that sounds so unappealing as sausage gravy (aka chopped up ferret) and biscuits and they find that it tastes better than it looks they can't do anything but ask you to marry them, LOL ! I'm not a Southerner but do like gravy and biscuits. Although, I prefer chicken fried chicken w/gravy or make my own version of SOS using white gravy and chicken on toast. Never cared for the taste of chipped beef (we had that growing up as kids). Too salty so I substituted leftover cooked chicken.

I'm from a southern state in America. The biscuits w/gravy is normally a breakfast dish, eaten with other breakfast foods like fried eggs. Rarely do people eat chicken with it. Chicken is mostly eaten with mashed potatoes and brown gravy like your English gravy (KFC). That does depend on what part of the south you are from though. Every southern state has their own local dishes.

@@Josua070 Your absolutely right the reason it received such a negative reaction in hearing about it is because they were basically imagining cookies with brown gravy. Then to pile on that white/country gravy doesn't exist there whatsoever gives little cause as to why a mysterious lumpy white liquid is actually good. Not to mention while most comparable to a scone an American biscuit is still very different from them, meaning if they had ever tried a white gravy on a scone it would have been an entirely different experience.

The confusion about the nomenclature for American biscuits comes from the dish’s history. Biscuits are a modernized version of hard tack, which people in the American frontier called “biscuits.” They called it that because (like an English biscuit and biscotti) hard tack is baked twice. American frontier people’s used this as a method to preserve it. One would typically make a large quantity of biscuits/hard tack and then soften it with a liquid or sauce when ready to eat. This method of preserving and preparing biscuits/hard tack is what developed into the dish Biscuits and Gravy.

I come from a Mexican family so most my life all I had was Mexican food. A few years ago while staying at one of my white friends house, her mom made biscuits and gravy for breakfast. I have never been the same since. It’s the perfect meal for a Sunday morning, it put me right down for a nap and was so delicious.

@@angelastarling3052 it’s easy to make sawmill gravy as my grandmother called it, yourself. Fry up some English breakfast sausage and patty them up. Remove them and add some flour to the pan. You want equal parts flour and fat. Brown the flour to get the raw taste out then add the milk. Once the gravy gets hot, it will thicken. You technically don’t even need sausage. Just cooking oil and flour. It’s a béchamel in French cuisine.
