British Highschoolers Try Biscuits and Gravy for the First Time! British Family React!

My God people, we have brown gravy too.😂 White gravy is just one variety of gravy we have..... beef- dark brown,chicken -tan,pork-tan,sausage (white) and plain white (no sausage).

As we Americans We also have turkey gravy.

As a Canadian, we have red gravy for moose, elk and buffalo, black gravy for seal and walrus, and a very deep orange gravy for any type of bear, whether it be black, grizzly or polar. I won't even get into all the crazy gravies our Newfoundlanders are into. Cheers.

[@threecfn3090]

it makes me laugh too bc our brown grave also has more flavors than their regular gravy😂

[@jenkinda]

The white gravy in the U.S. is typically known as country gravy, sausage gravy, or sawmill gravy (the difference being what’s added…. i.e. sausage gravy is made with bits of sausage and the drippings, whereas sawmill gravy is made without the sausage bits, but still contains the drippings.)

[@nightbane727]

you forgot breakfast gravy lol but yeah they are all the same

[@Zhiperser]

We called it milk gravy.

[@coyotelong4349]

And then there’s red-eye gravy made with ham drippings & coffee

[@williamlucas4656]

Don’t forget fried chicken gravy made the same way when used on rice or mashed potatoes. Very traditional southern. Very savory.

[@CaptainHightop]

The gravy for biscuits and gravy is basically a Béchamel sauce. After cooking the sausage you add flour to the sausage and fat to create a roux and then add milk and cook until thickened. Then it is seasoned with salt and a lot of black pepper. The basic recipe is 1 pound of ground breakfast sausage, broken up well and cooked until browned and all the fat has been rendered. Add 1/2 cup flour to the pan with the sausage and mix to create a roux. cook the roux untill the flour has just slightly turned a golden color and then stir in 4 cups of milk. Continue to to cook on medium heat until the gravy has thickened stirring often to lift the flour from the bottom and side of the pan. Add salt to taste and a generous amount of black pepper.

[@DamienWillis]

I'm not sure they can get our type of breakfast sausage in the UK. I've seen LOTS of videos, and it's always link sausage. The closest I've seen is uncooked link sausage that can be cut out of the casing, but I'm not quite sure how it's seasoned - Sage? Chile flakes? Thyme? Black pepper? I just don't know.

[@DashRiprock513]

[@robtintelnot9107]

Bob Evans has horrible biscuits and gravy.

[@billyboycinci]

The gravy is made with browned sausage (American breakfast sausage..ground pork with spices such as black pepper, sage, ground coriander, etc). You use the drippings and flour to make a roux, then add milk and let it cook until it's thickened.

[@DC_Greed]

I like my biscuits with jam or jelly as well.

[@MoeDavinci]

Ayeee, you all are coming into my hometown of Atlanta! Awesome, definitely some great food places around the city.

[@galagajunkie]

As far as I know there's two types of gravy served over biscuits, sausage gravy and country gravy. Sausage gravy is prepared by browning ground breakfast sausage, then without draining the fat add flour to thicken it up, then milk until the desired consistency is achieved, and season with salt and pepper. Country gravy (my favorite) is adding flour to the grease and bits left over from frying bacon to form a roux, than add milk and season as above. I prefer to add sausage to country gravy rather than make sausage gravy because sausage gravy tends to turn out a greyish color as opposed to country gravy which is a more visually palatable off white cream.

[@spyrus_4359]

Country gravy sounds a lot better. I think the reason I hate biscuits and gravy is that I almost always see it with sausage gravy. I also hate breakfast sausage, so it makes sense.

[@cinb3448]

I'm sorry G had a bad experience with biscuits and gravy. She should try again when y'all come visit! And as far as gravy goes, we have many different gravies and sauces. Depends on the meal!

You wanna open those biscuits before you pour gravy over them lol .

[@layne6675]

In America, gravy isn’t just gravy. It’s a good group of its own. We have many different kinds of gravy, including what the English call gravy. Many types. Sausage gravy is cream based, made with the dripping of country sausage and sausage itself. It’s one of my favorite foods of all time. And goes amazingly well with fried chicken.

White gravies are similar to béchamel with black pepper. Sausage gravy is white gravy made with the sausage drippings and with some of the sausage patties crumbled into it. The Beesleys tried an instant mix.

[@JustMe-dc6ks]

Was more pepper gravy than sausage I think, but close enough given the practicalities if you want to watch. There’s also a channel for Barry Lewis, who’s a cook I guess, who made and tried a version. Made some mistakes but it seemed reasonably close considering. The main advantage of that one is he essentially recreated our breakfast sausage, he didn’t know we cook it as patties but still it’ll give you an idea of the flavor.

[@jodydarby]

Welcome soon to the south. GA native here. Enjoy your time in our great state.

[@theevilbeard]

So this would be what we call "Sawmill Gravy" here. It's browned breakfast sausage, then you make a roux with butter and flour in the fat of the browned sausage, and add milk/cream to finish the gravy. Adding a lot of black/white pepper for seasoning. It's savory and a bit creamy.

[@destinyreelly2974]

[@JonBlaze1014]

We have the same gravy as you guys, we just apparently have many different types. We normally have two types of "white gravy", country and sausage. Sausage grayv is basically country gravy with sausage in it. But we do have the traditionally runny brown gravy that we reserve for mashed potatoes and turkey or roasts. When you come to the US besides trying biscuits and gravy, you should try country fried chicken or steak that's topped with country gravy....it's soooooo good and I could eat it everyday if I could.

[@karynhonor5046]

the sausage gravy is peppery so it has a great spice to it (if done right) and goes fantastically with the chicken

[@frankisfunny2007]

The US has brown gravy, as well. The white gravy is known as "sausage gravy", or "country gravy". It's a flour-based gravy. It's made with black pepper, milk, and sausage meat. Hence "sausage" in "sausage gravy". That's also why it's chunky in this video.

[@tgreak5293]

We have beef, chicken, turkey, pork and ham gravy. Gravy is made from any meat drippings. Biscuits are soft, tender and moist if done correctly. They can be used in savory or sweet applications. Butter and jam, honey, sandwiches with meat sausage gravy.

We have different types of gravy. Breakfast gravy would be white (plain, chipped beef, or sausage). We also have the dinner gravy like you have made from beef, turkey, chicken, etc.

[@jdbroders64]

I lived in the South for several years back in the day and there's nothing better than biscuits and white sausage gravy. Truly delicious comfort food and by the way Aidan, the sausage gravy is pretty spicy. You'd probably like it, just sayin'. It always has a spicy kick.

[@jdbroders64]

I should've added that since you mentioned you're going to possibly visit the South then you must have chicken and waffles. When they're done right, they are amazing. Also, Southern shrimp and grits. You can have them for breakfast or dinner it doesn't matter they are delicious.

[@Sprayber]

Biscuits can be had with a variety of things. Sausage gravy is a must though. A person can put a Sausage patty in a biscuit. A person can put a cooked egg. Jelly or jam. If you really want to be decadent you can get some syrup and butter and make a nice spread for a biscuit. As for tea, sweet tea is unbeatable as a drink. It's amazing. I have however stopped drinking because I always have a drink with me so water is what I go with now.

[@Austin.Kilgore]

[@DebraBryant-v3i]

As well as a southern low country boil....shrimp, corn, potatoes, seasoning. Boiled down and we dump it out on a table for everyone to sit around with a fork and plate and pull into your plate what you want. Also comes with grits, cooked with chicken stock, not water.

[@rebelwithacause7334]

Hey, I am an American that was raised with Southern cooking all my life. Toast and beans is really good; especially if you add brown sugar to the beans; even better with cut up beef hot dogs in the beans over the toast! I love Texas Toast (the really thick bread) is really good with sausage gravy, and so is Texas Toast with cinnamon and brown sugar cream cheese over the Texas Toast toasted and hot when you add the cream cheese! A lot of Americans also love sweet Luzianne Tea with a dash of vanilla in it. When you start to get hot the vanilla comes out of your pores and it makes you smell nice! In the old days, women used real vanilla to cook and as a cheap perfume/cologne!

[@anndeecosita3586]

That Sweet Tea/Sweetie exchange with the waitress is hilarious. Bloke probably thought she was hitting on him. 😂Reminds me of the time we were about to have a luau in college. I went up to some worker guys who were setting up and said “Hi, can I get a lai?” They all just stared at me with mouths agape. After a long pause, One guy goes “You want a what?” I said “You know. A lai” and I gestured like the necklace around my neck. They did a collective “oohhh”. Then they were like we don’t have any. That’s when it dawned on me how they had interpreted what I said as a lay. Then one guy joked he was just about to the other guys to step back. We all laughed 😂😂

[@bamachine]

We have more than one type of gravy here. We have the brown gravy, made with beef stock, just like what you call gravy. We also have gravy made with chicken stock that we typically use at Thanksgiving to pour over stuffing or dressing. Then we have the white gravy you seen in this video which is basically bechamel with bit of sausage and sausage drippings plus cracked black pepper. That is typically used for bisvuits at breakfast or minus the sausage bits, it is used to pour over fried chicken or country fried steak. We also have redeye gravy which is made with bacon grease or country style(salt cured)ham drippings and coffee grounds. Again, that is used on breakfast biscuits.

[@itswomanswork553]

You make sausage gravy by cooking ground breakfast sausage in a pan after it's cooked though like ground beef you add a couple a heaping spoonfuls of flour (you want the flour and fat to be equal but you just kind of eyeball it) you add the flour to the sausage and cook for a just a little bit until the sausage is covered and the flour is no longer raw, then you slowly add milk along with salt, and pepper until the gravy is as thick or as thin as you like. If you want to make it with our the sausage you cook the meat of choice such as bacon in the pan remove it from the pan the add a couple of spoonful of flour to the pan and cook till slightly brown. Then just fallow the same steps as with the sausage gravy.

[@kenholst3541]

The "white" gravy is made with fried pork breakfast sausage (crumbled while frying) you could add some diced onions if YOU like. Remove sausage from fry pan then add white flour to the remaining fat from the sausage to make a "roux", a kind of flour paste. Next, add by preference, cream or milk appropriately 2 cups, more or less, depending on how thick you want your gravy. After "roux" is fully dissolved in liquid add cooked sausage and simmer for a minimum! of 5 minutes. There you have Sausage gravy. Pour over biscuits and enjoy. 😉 For a full on Southern breakfast add fried hashbrowns or potatoes, and fried eggs. The potatoes taste great with the gravy!! 😂

[@BTinSF]

Let’s get the sausage gravy thing straightened out for good. It’s basically made like any gravy. After you fry up some bulk sausage meat (no casing), you make a gravy of if including meat and juices (as you might make gravy of roast drippings) with some flour and milk and possibly some seasoning, especially black pepper. That’s it. You an put it over biscuits or use it however you want. By the way, many Americans including me eat biscuits as you might a scone by splitting them (YES) and applying butter and jam/jelly or honey or just butter alone. We don’t really have “clotted cream” except in stores selling Bitish products so we don’t do that usually.
