FILIPINAS TRY MY GRAVY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ANGELES CITY

[@kettch777]

Oooh, I just had a smashing idea. Biscuits with palabok gravy. Anyone who has ever had pancit palabok knows what I mean. That would be AMAZING!

[@mikethrash3544]

Try corn meal instead of flower in your gravy. Take out the meat and add the corn meal. Fry it until it gets goldish then pour in the milk and near the end add back in the sausage. its the bomb

[@chuckhenson6896]

I am a Kentucky boy myself love biscuits and gravy you need some fried apples a couple eggs and some bacon to go with it to

[@Kim-i8s7f]

Besides good southern food, Kentucky also makes bourbon thats not only good for drinking, its great to use in a lot of recipies.

[@jamespaxton5229]

My grandma would fix sausage gravy and a pot of rice to go with the biscuts and eggs for breakfast! So Good!

[@nativetexan9776]

The thing about salt is it can be added to taste to your serving on your plate.

[@suni214]

thanks for the cooking class and always nice seeing the crowd

[@PILearning2LiveAgain]

I'm gonna havta steal that biscuit recipe. Miss me some biscuits and gravy. Think I can figure out the sausage spice blend, but I won't be mad at cha if you share it. Video must be older recording than it says, Marcos looks 5 years younger here.

[@josephputnam7586]

I live in Las Vegas and would kill for some good biscuits and gravy. My granny use to make biscuits and gravy for breakfast every Sunday morning.

[@curtisseborowski161]

Great vid! I need to visit your restaurant and stay at the hotel!

[@worr70]

Americans do eat rice for breakfast. Snap! Crackle! Pop! Kellog's Rice Krispies

[@suni214]

nice meeting new friends and mark and hazel are great addition to the gang as well as captian ron and lizel

[@jasonlebeau1288]

I have 1 problem with the biscuits (aside from the user error with the oven) and 2 with the gravy: 1) The biscuits would have been much fluffier (taller) if you used buttermilk as the acid would interact with the baking soda in the baking powder. You can make your own buttermilk by adding 1tbsp of lemon juice for every cup of milk. 2) Having all that extra oil after you added milk means you didn't use enough flour to fully absorb it all. Oil and flour is how you make a roux which is how sauces like bechamel and country/sausage gravy are thickened and is equal parts oil/butter and flour. 3) The roux needs to be cooked for at least 2-3min before adding milk in order to not have raw flour which can make people sick.

[@FarEastPapi]

Thanks for the tips Jason.

[@clydea.murphy2219]

That's how this Missouri boy was taught, you brown your flour in equal parts of bacon grease before adding the milk. My grandfather was born and raised in Breckenridge County, Kentucky

[@thomasodetinape4180]

Nice work. A shout to all our Mom's who did things like this everyday. Enjoy!!!!!!

[@katrinaprescott5911]

My grandma (from Eastern Kentucky) started her biscuits by melting lard in the pan she was going to make them in. She started with buttermilk (you can sour milk by adding lemon juice to sweet milk), added a teaspoon of baking powder and a small amount of baking soda to counteract the acid in the buttermilk. Then she added self-raising flour to make a very soft and sticky dough. Then she would pour in the melted lard and quickly mix it in. You could see the texture of the dough change and become smooth and stretchy. She would scrape it out onto a floured biscuit board and gently fold and turn it just three or four times until the surface wasn't sticky. It was still sticky inside and you had to clean off your biscuit cutter every two or three biscuits. She put them in the pan just touching and baked them until done. She taught me how to make them but it was by look and feel so I don't have any measurements 😂. She was a school teacher so she didn't have time to cut in butter or lard. She streamlined her biscuit process 😊

[@FarEastPapi]

Sounds awesome! Thank you

[@lagunakid597]

You could start a country breakfast business there, Eric....

[@ramroddrone5449]

Yup when your American in Philippines your on about 55 to 1 exchange rate and live like a king like this guy

[@DuranjrJuan]

My mom is from Mexico 🇲🇽. She made awesome biscuit,s 😋 😍 👌. Every Sunday morning. And eggs and hash brown,s. Delicious your making a buffet.

[@randallanderson4560]

I hope I'm able to bring or ship my cast iron skillets from Georgia? I totally get the Southern style cooking ya'll probably miss. My skillets were willed to me from my Great Grandmother with the recipes. That's 118 years of seasoning in those things, and worth every penny too. I put on 10 lbs in a week when I got them, and don't regret any of those pounds. The cornbread, sausage gravy, pancakes, corn fritters, and fried eggs were just out of this world.

[@Kim-i8s7f]

You're so fortunate to get those cast iron skillets. And I'm sorry about the loss of your grandmother

[@angies.4961]

HI Eric and Mercy! CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 ON 5,000 SUBSCRIBERS!!!

[@Kim-i8s7f]

I live in Kentucky and im a fan if good ol' southern food. Grew up on gravy and biscuits, fried potatoes & pinto beans and cornbread, and food my mother and grandmother grew in the garden. Nothing better than fresh green beans and corn .... Thanks for representing Kentucky.👍😃

[@theinudemon]

Yup, in IL here and we were mostly a meat and potato family here.

I would be a regular at any restaurant that made good Biscuits and Gravy in Angeles City.. One fine meal there Eric!

[@Pat_KraPao]

RBI steakhouse has pretty good biscuits and gravy but the biscuit is the size of a quarter and really expensive.

[@andrewcolicchio766]

So cool, bringing some USA to the table! 👍

[@richardhowe5583]

I just had to say, I am sure you know that you can freeze those biscuits and they will last a few weeks in the freezer.. it's really nice to have a good homemade biscuit with your breakfast when you do not feel like making them.. I remember my mother taught my ex-wife how to make cat head biscuits.. I would carry the damn things around in my coat pocket during the winter time and I always have some roasted peanuts in my pocket.. I will usually take a couple or three days and cook lots of good stuff while I am sipping on some good Jim Beam Bourbon and then freeze it and eat on it for a week or two.. some things actually taste better after they off Frozen.. I noticed you had liquor on your shelf and nobody was drinking.. I sure would have had a couple of Jim Beam and water while I was watching you make the biscuits and gravy for sure.. I could never stay up all night and drink and play cards anymore because it would probably kill me, but of course I surely did do that a lot when I was younger.. now I am a teetotaler but I should do like my Kentucky bourbon every now and then.. I have no problem having a few drinks anytime of the day but I cannot drink very much and I certainly cannot drink everyday.. I'm sure you already know that you can freeze those biscuits but I just had to get it off my chest..hehe

[@arctan2010]

I’m usually a little hesitant if you don’t at least have a slight southern drawl making biscuit & gravy considering I’m from the west coast. I always trust a southerner to get it right. I must say that really looks mighty tasty! 👍

[@am-fil]

Northerners make the best biscuits and gravy.

[@kayevans1720]

Southerners make the best biscuits and gravy without a doubt

[@robbin.s]

Kentucky is a southern state. I’m not sure where his accent went. Lol

[@wordforger]

@Robbin S It's there. People who aren't from Kentucky may make it out easier than someone with a thicker Kentucky accent. I'm Texan myself and even if most people HERE wouldn't notice my accent much since it's comparatively slight, I had some Canadians politely ask if I was Texan when I visited up there, and my Aunt from California said it's DEFINITELY there.

[@tinaraphael9783]

We add a bit of melted Crisco to our mix and then almost exactly like yours. Where do you find decent pork sausage and did it come mixed with some sage or did you add it.
