Sage is already in the sausage. Most breakfast sausage is seasoned with sage.

[@nullakjg767]

Yeah adding more seasoning is a good idea if youre cooking with just ground pork.

[@RebelCowboysRVs]

Only in the US.

[@honinakecheta601]

Yup, sausages are already filled with seasoning, its not just salt. Depends on the kind you get too

[@pjschmid2251]

American breakfast sausage is seasoned with sage but British sausage typically isn’t. Having the sage may have given him a better more authentic American sausage gravy flavor.

Kent is a great Oklahoma legend. The true embodiment of cowboy cooking. What's amazing is the time he competed on Top Chef and won. The judges indicated his food wasn't the fanciest, or never had high marks in visual presentation, but in terms of flavor and pure joy when eating his food he always scored at the very top.

[@mariaeisenhardt2296]

He mentioned Justin Wilson early in the video. He’s was an old Cajun chef from Louisiana. He had a couple of shows on PBS in the early 80s and was a hoot to watch” I gar-on-tee!" (I guarantee).

[@ros9162]

Bacon grease, or ground sausage is traditional. But i always make sure that if my sausage doesn't have fennel seeds in it, that i throw some in when the meat is browning. When making the gravy, i personally think it's best to add smoked paprika, a little bit of chili powder, and a pinch of cayenne, along with the black pepper. Always salt last after you taste it. And if you don't have the time to make your biscuits, some of us poor people just rip up some pieces of white bread and pour gravy on that. It's good too. It satisfies the craving.

[@bhseigel]

​@@officeblokedazI definitely want to see you do more of Kent's videos, especially because it's so clear how much you love watching them. That guy's a trip.

[@Jude_196]

YAY!! MORE COWBOY KENT!!! :) THANKS, YA'LL!!! He's got A MILLION good recipes!! ENJOY! HUGS!!

[@Jeeperskip]

One of the best biscuit recipes ever is one that does not use butter but instead Crisco. Shortening. Fewer calories but not bland. Butter put on after they bake and you split them is best anyway. "Betty Crocker's biscuit supreme" can be found online. It uses cream of tartar also. You can use either buttermilk or regular milk to make them.

[@creinicke1000]

I cook my bacon in oven.. a pound of bacon in oven for 30 min at 300 or 350.. the bacon grease is very easy to poor off the raised edge pan, much cleaner grease that stores easy in cabinet next to the stove for when needed.

He’s the best and has great recipes! Used his chili recipe with a slight twist for our office cook off, and won hands down. Big fan!

[@rmlrl1971]

You should invest in a good cast iron frying pan. You can make the biscuits and put them in the cast iron and bake them in your oven.

[@justathought88]

Not only biscuits, but required for proper cornbread, frying chicken fried steak, and many other things.

[@LA_HA]

And more, if they get a cast iron dutch oven, they can expand on the things they can make. Even BBQ recipes that they'll get from Smokin' and Grillin' With AB, the other show I've been telling them about

[@theresacavallaris2251]

I'm from Alabama and I was taught at 12 years old how to make gravy and biscuits when I seen you making it with sage and all that stuff I really didn't understand the taste of that but the way Bob makes it is the true way Southern way of making biscuits and gravy I make mine with bacon or sausage it don't matter either one is delicious you will find that so much easier to make it this way your gravy and biscuits never steer the doe you need it because your biscuits will not rise you don't got to beat them to death LOL and if you don't want to put baking powder and all that stuff in there you can use self-rising flour which comes with all you need and you don't have to do anything besides add your buttermilk and your butter so I hope you guys try it out 🏈ROLL TIDE🏈

[@theresacavallaris2251]

And when steer your grease bacon grease sausage grease whatever with the flour and salt the Browner you let it get the browner your gravy is

Sage is already in sausage in the US. Its not in the UK. So they would need to add sage to better match our sausage gravy.

He referenced Red River Ranch. The Red River runs through the border of Texas and Oklahoma and where he is looks very much like Oklahoma. Biblical references are common in that area of the country because it is the heart of the Bible belt.

[@alexrodgers9247]

In most of our prepackaged sausage the thyme, sage, salt, sometimes chili peppers are already in it. It’s great that way cuz the flavors get to meld together ahead of time.

Back in the old days when folks had their own cows and no refrigeration, you had what was known as SWEET milk, (fresh), or SOUR milk, (that's milk that has started to ferment a bit from hanging around for a day or so where it has begun the lacto-fermentation process and it tastes "soured." The latter is basically what's known as buttermilk. My grandma used to hand churn butter and when the milk was just past the whipping cream stage and had begun to separate into solid and whey, she would stop and give me a big jug. So, I had delicious thick fresh milk with tiny little pebbles of butter in it. I still dream about that, and she died in 1987.

[@LA_HA]

It's no comparison, but one of my sisters took me to Whole Foods' and introduced me to raw milk that comes in glass bottles. It was Delicious, especially the cream that would rise to the top of the bottle. Loved it even though it's very expensive. But, you could at least get $2/bottle back when you took them back to the store on your next trip. The actual farm fresh milk with butter bits in it must've been unbelievable. I hope I dream about it

[@beverlyshane8433]

I’ve just recently tried biscuits & gravy and I loved it.

[@kenashburn5473]

If you didn't have true breakfast sausage I would recommend just sticking with using bacon Grease and to forego the sausage. My mother rarely ever had breakfast sausage to put in the gravy when she made it and it was still one of my favorite breakfast meals from my childhood. Just bacon Grease, flour, milk, salt and pepper is all you need to make some fantastic white gravy.

[@rattata30]

Watch Rachel cooks with love, she cooks Mexican dishes as much as American dishes. She is from Texas!

[@kimwilliams8834]

American breakfast sausage is already spiced and seasoned. If you can’t find it in the UK you can get ground pork and add your own to get the flavor

[@jsamuelsen]

It depends on the sausage you can get there. Breakfast sausage does have sage and other seasonings like maybe fennel, Rosemary...it depends on the brand bit i think sage is common in all of them.

[@ShadowMage3D]

11:00 -- That's a cast Iron Dutch Oven. Standard camping gear, if you're going to be baking anything, though my mom used to use one on the stovetop.

[@DavidWalton-g8w]

The camping dutch oven and the indoor dutch oven are a little different. The camping one often time has feet. The other is often enameled. The camping one can be used inside and outside. The enameled one probably shouldn't be used over a campfire.

[@ShadowMage3D]

@@DavidWalton-g8w My mom's had feet. It wasn't enameled.

[@neecee4457]

Actually you CAN use Lemon Juice (as well as distilled white Vinegar). I come from a family of chefs (from my grandmother and her kids all of whom were chefs) I myself once owned a Food Truck that served Breakfast (where I made homemade biscuits everyday) and there were many times when I ran out of buttermilk and had to make my own, and I never had problems using either liquids. 1 tablespoon of Lemon or Vinegar, to every 1 cup of Milk that the recipe calls for. Stir together, the mixture may curdle; do not stress if this happens...because this is a good thing! (you want to see the curdle) Then just mix it in the dry ingredients. Happy Baking!! PS...So, Ken was correct. 😊

Hey, you two might like videos on Yooperlites and Petoskey stones. Yooperlites were named that because the man who "discovered" them was a Yooper=from Upper Penninsula of Michigan. You know U P Yoo Pee Yooper. It's interesting, they use black lights to hunt them. Look like dragon eggs, glowing from within. Petoskey stones are just awesome when polished. I believe they;re fossilized coral. Both of these can be found in Michigan.

[@rhiahlMT]

I've never put sugar in my biscuits. I know some do, in my experience its done west of the Mississippi, except some parts of Texas or Arkansas. Buttermilk substitute with milk and vinegar works fine. I never buy buttermilk, most of it would go bad, I just don't use a lot of it.

Coincidentally you can also use cream of tartar in your milk to make buttermilk. 11/2 teaspoons to one cup of milk. Supposedly it less tart than if you use lemon juice or vinegar.

I just had an epiphany. I spent 2 weeks in London Heathrow working on jet engines for Thomas Cook Airlines traveling all the way from Fort Lauderdale. I will 100% agree at 1st glance, biscuits and gravy can be off putting. But once you've had PROPER ones, you see how warm & comforting they are. On the other hand, I've been to many different fish & chip shops in London. It looks warm & inviting, but is greasy, flavorless, and tastes like the newspaper they're served in. In all fairness, as an American, I still love my mushy peas! And when you think about that, it's the same concept of re-fried beans in our Tex-mex.

[@DavidWalton-g8w]

Does beans on toast look as off putting in person as it does in pictures? If I only had the right beans I would try it. Oh darn, can't find them. 😂

I don't know what things are like in Britain but in America normally you would use breakfast sausage and it has a lot of sprices and herbs in the sausage to flavor the gravy. If the sausage isn't flavored the same adding the herbs is fine, most breakfast sausage gotte in America has sage, thyme maybe rosemary already mixed into the meat. So you adding sage and herbs would make it similr to an American sausage and gravy

So there is no confusion, the sausage he used is pre seasoned, so likely what you were doing by seasoning was essentially making breakfast sausage.
