The gravy is easy as it is pretty much just a bechamel sauce with lots minced sausage. You adjust the seasoning for the sauce as you please, but I would stick with seasonings that work with the sausage. Onions, garlic, salt and paper really all you need. I've added the gravy to macaroni. But there is just something about having it on a crispy, and fluffy biscuit. The problem I have with most biscuits and gravy is that the gravy tends to be bland and doesn't have enough of the sausage flavor in it. So a I like to add more fat to the mixture at the beginning such as butter or lard, and that infuses the oil with as much flavor as possible, then I will let the sauce stew together for like 20 minutes just so those tastes marry.

A quick tip on retrieving egg shells - shell attracts shell. The shell fragment is usually repelled by your finger, but if you use the broken shell half to scoop it out, it’s actually attracted by it. That has saved me a lot of frustration from chasing shell fragments around.

I’m definitely going to try this as this won’t be the last time I need to remove some shell

if you'd like my own personally developed (southern man) biscuit recipe, i am happy to share. i call them, "Grim's Badass Biscuits". the recipe is tasty, can be made into cut or drop biscuits (i prefer drop biscuits so the gravy has more places to hang onto), easy to make (to mess them up you have to be *_trying_* to do it), no kooky ingredients, and all the info is in metric too. an ex of mine still has my recipe stuck to her fridge even 14 years after we broke up. 😁 i can also give you some tips on making the cream gravy really easy. you can freehand it without needing any recipes or packets.

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

Glad you liked it! Sausage gravy is easy to make from scratch. Just fry your sausage till it browns, then remove it from the pan and leave the grease in the pan. Add a few tablespoons of flour and make a roux. (That’s just browning the flour in the grease) when it’s brown, slowly add milk and stir constantly until you get about half a skillet full and it begins to thicken. As soon as it thickens put the sausage back in and serve it over biscuits. It should be thick but still able to flow over the biscuits. Most people open the biscuits into two halves before adding the gravy. That, some eggs and hash browns and your tummy will be smiling all the way till lunch🐝🤗❤️

[@co7314]

An insider tip: if you make drop biscuits like that (also known as cat head biscuits): 1. Make them bigger, which will ensure you get more of the supersoft fluffy interior. 2. Aim for "cream color with wheat tips" rather than toffee colored exterior. This reduces the crunchiness of the biscuit's crust. 3. Serve in a bowl. First, some gravy on the bottom. Split the biscuit, and snuggle it crust-down into the gravy. Cover that biscuit up with more gravy (wet it up). Wait a few minutes for optimal crust softening. 4. Expect the aftermath: you WILL feel like having a lie-down. I call it a Post-Carb Coma.

If you're going to eat the biscuits on their own, you can drench them in some Irish butter. That is a meal in itself.

Great first go! There are some tutorials online on how to make it from scratch without the mix. It's pretty simple, just takes a bit of practice.

[@daricetaylor737]

Biscuits and gravy are not just a Southern dish. we eat it all across the US. I grew up on it and I live in Northern CA. That "chicken" on the package cover for the gravy is actually a "chicken fried steak" and not chicken.. Take a round steak and pound it thin, dip in a flour batter and fry it and serve with the gravy. However......you CAN do the same thing to a nice thick breast of chicken. Just pound it out thin (like doing a schnitzel) dredge in flour and fry and serve with the gravy. There is a local diner here in town that serves the "chicken fried chicken" and it is amazing and I actually prefer the chicken to the steak. Nice job Mrs H!!

@@Mrhandfriends Try getting sausage made at a butcher’s shop and explain what you are trying to do. Tell them you need a large amount of sausage. This might get you better results than cutting the casing away on breakfast links.

[@william2085]

This was used by large southern families to stretch their food budget. My grandmother in 1940's Appalachia would take the amount of sausage that you used and stretch it with plenty of biscuits and gravy to feed her, my grandfather, their seven children and the couple of aunts, uncles, or cousins that would be staying with them. Even with the much greater gravy to sausage ratio, the sausage drippings permeates and flavors the gravy. So, 9-12 people could be fed on a small amount of meat.

[@broken4096]

Pioneer country gravy is damn near perfect, always use that. I insist on biscuits from scratch, which is still not difficult, but soft real butter is essential, as well as very fresh baking powder. Now, it takes longer, but if you break up the sausage with your hands in a cup or so of water, it makes a much better consistency. Once the water has evaporated, it must be browned. I prefer a deep brown for flavor, but it's up to you. It looks close, but use a coffee cup or something to press out the dough when it's rolled to about 3/4 inch thick, perfect rounds.

Hmmm now you all are making me hungry. Think I will make myself a batch. You can make your own béchamel white sauce from scratch too. You all have that tradition. Keep up the great shows. And do not fake it if you do not like a particular dish. No offense taken. All is an acquired taste.

Good job Mrs. H! The biscuits looked good and you went the extra mile by cooking sausage to add to the gravy. Job well done! 👩🏻‍🍳

[@shadowkissed2370]

There is an easy recipe for sausage gravy. 1 lb (454 grams) breakfast sausage, 1/3 cup (79 ml) all-purpose flour, 3-4 Cups (700 ml and 1 tbsp to 946 ml) Milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Brown the sausage and break it up as you brown it over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Sprinkle on half the flour and stir so that the sausage soaks it all up, then add more little by little to make a roux. Stir it around and cook it for another minute or so until the flour is toasty, then pour in the milk, stirring constantly. Cook the gravy, stirring frequently until it thickens. This may take a good 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle in the salt and pepper and continue cooking until very thick and luscious. If it gets too thick too soon, just splash in another 1/2 cup (125 mL) of milk or more if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Not a Southerner here - though descended from some 😀 - and for a first try, that looks great! I don't do the gravy, but I do make biscuits from scratch. When you run out of mix, look up the biscuit recipe from the Joy of Cooking cookbook online. But be sure it's from the 70s edition or earlier; they went and made the modern reprints healthy, and bah! Anyway, that's a good recipe. It also gives directions for rolled & cut biscuits, or drop biscuits like you made. The only difference is adding more milk so you can drop the dough by spoonfuls. I use lard (maybe leaf lard in the UK?) for my biscuit shortening. Aren't biscuits nice and fluffy? Now you know what everyone is raving about. 😄 And if you add some sugar, you can use those for making strawberry shortcake! Made with either white cake or sweetened biscuits for the cake part, but I like biscuits so much better. Cake gets too mushy for my taste with all the juice from the strawberries. Plus using biscuits is a faster way to the yum! Oh my word, you have no idea. Those are another divine treat.

to make proper southern biscuits always use buttermilk(it adds a bit of fat). a bit of a tip, take the biscuit dough out of the bowl, knead it on a floured counter, dust the top of the dough with flour so the cutter doesn't stick, you can use a evaporated milk can with holes punched on top as vent holes. oh, roll out the biscuits out to about a half a inch thick.

Oh dear. As a Southerner, (born, raised, and still living in Nashville), I hate to break this to you. You cannot cook Southern food without a cast iron skillet. There's a certain flavor you obtain from using cast iron which you cannot obtain from using other items. So the next time you're in the United States, look for a Cracker Barrel restaurant. The front of these restaurants is a country store. Ask to be shown the Lodge Cookware. They usually have a combo pack which is a shallow frying pan and a deeper frying pan, shallow one acting as a lid to the deeper one. That is worth its way in gold. Keep it properly and you won't be passing it on to Baby H as an heirloom, but to her grandchildren. They're nearly indestructible.

[@dougbowers4415]

It probably makes very little difference, but we would normally slice the biscuits in half horizontally and serve them open faced with the gravy. It makes eating them easier. You can also serve with a poached egg on each side for a “country benedict”. Excellent job though.

The cream gravy should very good with chicken cooked in a variety of ways. I come from a part of the US where there are a lot of Amish people, and even some non-Amish like my family ate creamed chicken over waffles for lunch or dinner. You shred your roasted chicken, often left over from Sunday dinner, with a fork and add it to the cream gravy. Serve it over regular waffles from a mix, or if you have leftover mashed potatoes as well, you can make savory homemade waffles that incorporate the potatoes.

I have the easiest home made biscuit recipe - 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 cup of self rising flour. That’s it. I also add 1 Tablespoon of white vinegar to the cream and let it sit for about 15 minutes. That is a substitute for buttermilk, which makes the biscuits so much better. Mix it all together until you get a rough dough (I do this part with a spoon) then turn it out onto a floured surface and then knead it a bit and then roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a round cookie cutter - a jar lid works well, too. Put them on an ungreased pan and bake in a 400 F preheated oven for about 18 to 20 minutes. I always make home made gravy, too with bacon drippings, but that’s more of a visual thing and really just takes practice.

Yum biscuits and gravy is my favorite weekend breakfast. You did great ❤️

[@stephanies1474]

Yum.... I love biscuits and gravy. You can do homemade biscuits with 2 or 3 ingredients. Self-rising flour or all-purpose flour with baking powder(approx 2 teaspoons per cup) added, along with heavy cream. 1 tsp of salt(optional) 2 cups of flour and add heavy cream(double cream?) until you can bring it together to form a dough. (Add slowly) Fold the dough several times. Roll it out to a 1inch thickness Cut the biscuits out with the rim of a small/med water glass if you don't have a biscuit cutter. Cook about 20-30mins till golden brown in a 350-degree oven. So good.

Yup, she nailed it!

[@vintagemj4355]

Great job! You made this Oklahoman proud. I am not a good cook like my mom & grandma. They make the gravy in the cooked sausage pan w/ drippings w/ flour & milk. I can't lol but the packets with a good bit of pepper takes care of the cravings.

5:34 Most chicken fried steaks are made with beef but you can substitute with a thin cut of pork

[@Mrhandfriends]

The chicken fried bit confuses me. But I do think pork would work well

[@briankirchhoefer]

@@Mrhandfriends pork tenderloin with milk gravy is a Midwest US staple.

[@JustMe-dc6ks]

Chicken fried (aka country fried) because it’s battered and fried like chicken.

[@rodneysisco6364]

We split the biscuits open and butter them before spooning the gravy on them

[@LarryHatch]

European hack: think of American biscuits and gravy as "savory scones topped with German Ramnschnitzel sauce" except the sauce has bits of sausage instead of mushrooms. The more meat drippings and butter you add the better. Chicken Fried Steak (CFS) originated as the German-Austrian version of schntizel when they got to Texas in the 1800's because veal was rare and they just pounded the abundant beef steaks flat until they were tender. Biscuits and gravy and gravy-topped CFS are sometimes part of the same dish because you can mop up the sauce with either the meat first and later the biscuit pieces.

[@dalemoore8582]

Except...they are not scones...unless you put buttermilk in your scones.

[@MrEd8846]

scones are too dry compared to an american biscuit. scones are sweeter, drier, have fruit sometimes, are made with cream and eggs. biscuits dont have eggs or cream its usually buttermilk and theyre more soft and typically are not sweet

[@praxton]

Yeah a scone would be the closest comparison and even then, they're different enough to be their own thing. On the surface of it, they look like scones, but just enough of a difference in their makeup to be a different experience.

Great job Mrs. H 😋 I love the idea of cooking with Mrs. H 🥰

[@brianbaswell5895]

Great Video H Family! When you come back to the U.S., come to the South and have a Southern Grandma make it homemade for you, OMG! Fun fact, the dish was made to stretch out meat for everyone and to feed farmers a hearty Breakfast to keep them going for the majority of the day. ❤🇺🇸🇬🇧❤!

[@charlesvaughn2192]

When you bake the rest of the biscuits, try opening a couple up put some butter on it, let it melt then put some honey all over it.

[@CCoburn3]

Don’t apologize so much. As long as you, Mr. H and Baby H like the food, that’s all that matters.

[@johnlake4809]

Love that you made something to try it. I enjoy other reactors, The Beasleys, as well as You New Zealand Family. MNZF has a 13 yr old daughter who is developing her own channel making recipes sent in. Right now she is making every US state's, state food. I'd love to see more of these types of videos. Mr and Mrs H, you both seem very genuine and sincere. Love his Reese's reactions and how she cries when hearing a touching tribute. Keep asking content and I'll keep watching!

[@maryannanderson2213]

I love watching Atlanta do her cooking segments. I keep hoping she will just start her own channel because she is a superb cook and she is so young! When she gets a bit older she will be unbeatable in the kitchen.

[@robroberts1473]

As a southern I have to say that was a really good first try that gravy looked good may have to try British breakfast sausage gravy. Also your little baby it too adorable. 😊

[@Mrhandfriends]

Thank you Rob. Mrs H 💕

[@hkjuhucampbell4005]

I wish I had some biscuits and gravy now, it looked delicious. Usually I open the biscuits up and put the gravy on both sides of the biscuit.

[@tinahairston6383]

I'm personally not a fan of gravy but you did a great job, Mrs. H! Some would balk at the packets but there are some really good ones out there when you can't make from scratch and the ones Lola sent are two of the best. Now to get you baking from scratch so you can have those biscuits for breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack time :) Very well done!!

[@Utoober729]

I can't stomach the recipe

[@marykleeberg7162]

You did a great job Mrs H😃! Alana is just precious😍

[@dannym2359]

you should try making the biscuits from scratch, but biscuits and gravy is a popular dish for a good reason. Also, try making the gravy with a meat you enjoy if it's something other than sausage because you'll find that there are many more recipes that look similar but have a different meat. Bacon gravy is another amazing one if you're into bacon, or chorizo

[@katw3070]

Nothing like homemade biscuits, gravy, Virginia ham, eggs, hash browns and sliced tomatoes! Well, there’s also southern fried chicken, potato salad, fresh green beans, sliced fresh cucumbers, tomatoes and biscuits. And, of course, blackberry or peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream on top for dessert! Oh! Chicken and dumplings, too! Grew up in the south (Virginia) learning to make all those and more from wonderful southern cooks.

[@lindah6954]

I'm not from the south. But when I was there, I has biscuits & gravy. It's the ultimate pick me up breakfast. It's awesome when dealing with a cold day.

[@velladune1]

Well done Mrs H? The biscuits and gravy turned out fantastic! Also congratulations you two on 70k subs!!

[@Mrhandfriends]

Thank you Markus, glad they turned out well. Thank you from all of us on the congratulations too. Mrs H 💕

[@sherryheim5504]

Warm biscuits with butter and honey are really good too! When I was a child, my mom would make them when we would have fried chicken, they are a perfect side for that. Chicken Fried Steak is not Chicken but a very tenderized beef steak that is pounded flat then breaded and fried so it has a crispy outside. The steak is often nearly the size of a dinner plate once pounded out. White (milk) Gravy or sausage gravy (like you made) is generously poured over the steak and usually served with mashed potatoes or French fries or at breakfast with hash browns and/or grits and eggs. It is delicious. Both biscuits and sausage gravy are very simple to make from scratch (skip the mixes) and will taste even better.

[@maryfortney9528]

They look delicious. You're making me hungry!

[@Mrhandfriends]

Sorry Mary. Go get some to eat.

[@vivianmesser3307]

You did a great job Mrs. H! I hope you'll do more cooking videos!

[@DogwafflDan]

Some southern folks like to use cream gravy instead of sausage gravy. It usually contains milk, flour, and black pepper, along with bacon fat or pan drippings, but it usually doesn't contain much meat. Southern grandmas keep a can of baken fat under the sink for just such an occasion.

[@joelmcmahan7386]

Smash that 👍for Mr H and friends, now y’all have to try chocolate gravy. It’s a favorite here in NC mountains Mrs H you did great and a natural on the videos 🎥💯👍

[@Mrhandfriends]

Chocolate gravy? Really? I'm there!!! Mrs H 💕

[@joelmcmahan7386]

@@Mrhandfriends yes I’m not really sure the recipe. But it was one of my favorite treats fixed by my grandma and women in the church my dad preached in. I’ll get you guys the recipe in next couple of days. Thanks Mrs H and Mr H and Friends. 👍👍💯

[@SousChef77]

Mrs. H, I was born and raised in Houston, Texas. My mother/aunts did not make homemade biscuits. I have tried at least 10 times over my 65 years to make them. I even tried that mix that you just used, and a flop. I have to buy refrigerated or frozen. You did better on your first try than I did on ALL of mine. They make it look so easy on the You Tube videos. It's not easy for some of us. I am a decent recipe follower, and I am very good on sauces (my homemade gravy is the BEST!)....but biscuits have always gotten the best of me. You did fabulous IMHO.

[@Mrhandfriends]

Thank you so much, that means a lot. I will definitely try to make them from scratch, and gravy. Not because I want to try to show off if they work, but because I'll struggle to buy the packet mixes over here. Mrs H 💕

[@RonI-qz2tz]

Sausage gravy with biscuits as a man from Georgia raised in the south has been in my household since I was a kid. Love the video.

[@usmc24thmeu36]

I grew up in Mississippi and every Sunday morning after church we'd have the family over for a big breakfast . Biscuits and gravy , ham, eggs ,grits ,hash browns coffee, Orange juice.

That was a solid packaged biscuits and gravy. Well done Mrs. H!

[@Mrhandfriends]

She did great !!! :)

[@dustinpowers5790]

Just a fair warning when you come to the south in the United States make sure you bring some what are y'all call them trousers with some extra room cuz you're going to need them you will eat yourself into what we call a food coma you can literally pass out at the table just giving you a heads up

[@1COMIXMAN]

It's just as easy to make scratch biscuits and gravy. 2 cups self rising flour 2 sticks butter 1 cup buttermilk.dice cold butter mix it into the flour until its like pea sized pieces then slowly add the milk until it comes together. Roll it out on a floured surface then fold it over, do that 4 times then roll it out and cut out 3 inch rounds. Put on baking sheet cook at 400 for like 15 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. The gravy is jyst cooked sausage with flour added in and cooked for a few minutes then add in the milk and simmer constantly stirring until thickened. I always put a good amount of black pepper in mine.
