Yep. I was wrong lol. I got to the point in the video when he says that referring to a different restaurant. Biscuits and gravy have a special place in my heart and taste buds sooooo just in case anyone cares…… The gas station QuickTrip aka “QT” has a ‘kitchen’ in most locations, and they have pretty freaking great (and definitely affordable) biscuits and gravy. Plus if you order through the app they’ll bring it to your car curbside or even at one of the fuel pumps. ALSO, if you’re blessed enough to live near a Whataburger, they too have biscuits and gravy that are scrumptious considering their price point. 🤤😋👌🏼 that concludes todays chapter in my ever growing novel titled “volunteering long winded random information no one asked for”

Here is a tip for always getting fresh fries at fast food places. Order them with no salt. When fast food places do fries, they will put salt on them immediately. So if you order them without salt they have to cook a fresh batch for you. Best for the slow times only. If they are busy than you are guaranteed to get them fresh.
@CosmicGoku5292 жыл бұрын
You are not going to get juicy burgers from McDonalds. At least from an American McDonalds. They use a clamshell grill. That dries out the patty. Unlike Wendy's which uses what is called a wet grill. That leaves some of the juices from the burger on the grill to keep them juicy.
