Scottish guy tries American Southern Fried Steak and Biscuits 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Biscuits are a very simple recipe BUT it takes real talent to make em like THAT. An excellent biscuit is PURE PERFECTION.

I had to make biscuits for FALS class this year. My mom makes great ones. I thought….no problem. Nope….you could have used mine as a shot put. So bad!

The problem with rain in the south is it cools it down for a second but as soon as it stops the humidity skyrockets and it makes it seem even hotter.

[@timothywest1183]

It does confuse them because the biscuits for them are cookies to us. And biscuits for us are more like scones to then (although taste and texture are wildly different). They don’t really have anything exactly like our biscuits.

Glad to see that someone from the UK finally can distinguish between biscuits and scones. The buttermilk is what makes them light and fluffy and not dry and hard Like a Stone

[@marysews1]

Stone, scone, not much difference in my mind except for the T (tea?).

[@merriemisfit8406]

The texture of scones feels overworked. Like they were kneaded until they seized up. Conversely, I rarely even roll or cut biscuit dough -- I just make one giant drop biscuit in a skillet, and break it up into servings. P.S. Have you ever tried using half-and-half or cream in place of buttermilk? Quite lovely, like a step into shortcake territory without adding a bit of sugar.

[@LindaC616]

@merriemisfit8406 I agree with you on that, and I have never tried that. To be honest, I live by myself and if I make biscuits, I will eat all of them. So I try not to make them lol. When I was a kid, one of my brothers used to tease me for being fat, and then would turn around and challenge me at dinner time to see who could eat more of my grandmother's biscuits 😄

[@merriemisfit8406]

@@LindaC616 You can "cheat" by just stirring up some biscuit mix in a teacup with enough of your chosen liquid to moisten it all, and then microwaving. I forget if it takes one minute or two -- I usually just watch it "bake" so I'll know when it's done. They turn out fine that way, high and fluffy and hot, and portion control is automatic! This is the method I use when I want a biscuit with my lunch at work.

[@LindaC616]

[@rebeccacorbin1590]

That southern food kept our ancestors fortified for a hard day of work. I remember my mom getting up early to fry bacon and make biscuits. When the bacon was done she'd use the grease to make gravy. Nothing beats homemade biscuits and gravy for breakfast. Nothing, except maybe biscuits topped with Grandma's BlackBerry jam a pat of butter. It's cheap, filling, and delicious. These foods built this country and kept people alive during the depression. Most southern cooks have learned how to lighten up most of the recipes. Every now and then you need a plate of Grandma's cooking.

A little side note on those biscuits. The lady who made them for well over 35 years there, beat out a top chef Bob Flay in a contest to see whose biscuits were the best. Needless to say, she won. And for those who would like to try their biscuits or other products but can't make it to TN, they sell their biscuit mix online.

Shaun, very enjoyable, as always. FYI, Southern Fried Steak -- also known as Chicken Fried Steak -- is the American (esp. Southern) version or adaptation of Germany's traditional dish Wiener Schnitzel. Concerning this practice of massively Huge breakfasts, except for some special occasion, I think they are less of a Southern thing and more a feature of rural farm culture. I remember as a kid (I'm 70 now) during the Summer visiting my maternal grandparents in Alabama, who had a big farm. My grandfather and a couple of "hired hands" would gather in the kitchen at about 5:30 AM for a cup of coffee, then go straight into the early morning chores. But then they'd return at around 7:30 for a big breakfast prepared by my grandmother. There would be biscuits (of course) and gravy, ham, bacon, fried eggs, fried chicken, corn in the cob, sliced tomatoes, and a variety of jams. This was the biggest meal of the day. Lunch might be bologna sandwiches or breakfast leftovers. At the end of their work day the hired men went back to their own homes for supper, and I don't know what they ate, but my grandparents are a very light meal, like corn flakes & milk, or that big Southern country favorite, Crumbled Cornbread in Buttermilk! Personally, I can't think of a better way to ruin good cornbread, but generations of Southern country folks have loved it. I thoght you might finf that interesting. Best wishes.

[@jstringfellow1961]

@8:37 you're like "Southern cookin' is something else" and you're not wrong, friend. We call it cookin' but yeah, it's Southern if it's good. Biscuits are like scones, but again, you're 100% correct. We use more butter in ours and it just makes it softer.

[@TerryB751]

Great video. With the eggs, "sunny side up" means the yolks are uncooked and raw and kind of gummy. When you order the eggs "over easy" the yolk is cooked for a short period by flipping over the egg and it sears the yolk so it isn't as runny.

[@alheno5423]

Glad you enjoyed the Loveless. I live just a mile away from there. My son is a server at the Loveless he's worked there about 6 years. I often pop over there on the weekend for at least one meal, but that storm kept me at home.. I wish we had met so I could tell you in person how much I enjoy your channel. I found you because of Outlander so I go way back with you. The big barn is used for special events. It can be reserved for weddings, parties, small musical shows even theater. Then you can have the food catered fresh from the Loveless. If you ever make it back to Nashville I would love to show you the rest of the city that we called the real Nashville which is everything that's not down on lower Broadway LOL There's so much more to see and do here. My brother would be glad to take us out on his boat. We could do a river cruise or go out to one of the beautiful lakes around Nashville. There are also many beautiful city parks, festivals, museums, great universities, and of course lots more great food and people. In the fall we have a fun Highland Games & Celtic Festival. It's all very official. The last games O tended in 2022 were opened by some Earl of something or another I wish I remembered his name but he was part of the official governing party of the Highland Games, all the way in Nashville to kick things off. Like much of the southeast, we have a very large population of descendants of Scottish and Irish immigrants. Most of them settled in North Carolina and Tennessee in the early 1800s I look forward to seeing your adventures in Southern Florida. Blessings to both of you and stay safe!

Down the street from me is a little old 24 hour diner, it’s near an area that has a bunch of businesses off the Interstate where trucks are always coming and going. It’s been there since the 50’s, and is still owned by one of the grandkids, she’s also the hostess, cook, wait staff and chief joke teller. Some of the best country fried steak I’ve had in years, that’s definitely one of my guilty pleasures. But others are right, this isn’t an everyday thing, that is unless you’re up at 4AM and out the door at 5 to start farm work for 12+ hours. I grew up that way helping on the grandparents farm, we ate BIG meals first thing, a lighter dinner (lunch) then a larger supper (dinner). Sunday dinner & supper we’re always the large ones, either at church as a buffet or at home with large groups from church & family over. Oddly, one of the things I really enjoy is a European light style breakfast, it’s what I eat generally every day. Those big hearty meals just aren’t cool unless you’re burning all of it off out in a field.

Shaun, you probably won't see this, but the Loveless Cafe is just a few hundred meters away from the entrance to the Natchez Track Parkway. It is a 700+ KM stretch of quiet, scenic and breathtaking road that stretches from Nashville to Natchez, Mississippi with a speed limit of 80 kmph. No stop signs, no stoplights the entire length. You won't see a single business other than a few farms. No gas stations, no McDonalds - nothing. No commercial vehicles allowed, no signs other than notices of historical sights. The best way to describe it is a road that doubles as a park. The Trace started thousands of years ago as a trail for wild animals, then became a trade route for Native American Indians and settlers. If you ever make it back to the area, this is a real taste of Americana. I just rode it beginning to end - and back - on a motorcycle this week. About 1600 KM including getting off the Parkway to get food, gas and hotels.

The biscuits are made with White Lily brand flour. That's a flour made from soft wheat, grown in the warm humid climate of the South. That's why they are so fluffy and soft. It's a very regional flour. You can't get soft wheat flour West of Oklahoma, only hard red wheat or winter wheat flour, which grows in a harsher colder climate.

Here in the South we don’t eat breakfast until we get full. We eat until we get tired 😅. Real southern Biscuits will (as the old folks say) make you stuffed as a tick 😂😂😂. A good basket of biscuits with any fresh breakfast meat is a match made in heaven

Cool hat. I'm only now starting to watch your videos. They interest me because I'm of Scottish descent on both sides of my family (they came over to America, like so many others, from Northern Ireland during the Potato Famine ....1847 for my Dad's side). Anyway, I haven't been to Scotland since 1988. I was in Inverness when the North Sea Oil Disaster happened (Piper Alpha I think it was called). I want desperately to revisit the Isle of Skye. My wife is half English and has no interest in a Scotland visit. C’est la vie. Your videos are excellent, entertaining, and unique. I just watched one from several years back where you and your sister were eating Twinkies. Loved it. Keep cranking out these videos. Cheers

Atlanta interstates are notorious for heavy traffic, wrecks, and all-around crazy driving. Stay calm and you'll get through it, just a heads up.

Sunny side up, usually means with the egg cooked on the bottom and the yolk on top

[@natsfan100]

Fried eggs in America are ordered Sunny Side up (runny yoke), Over Easy (gooey/less runny yolk), over hard (fully cooked yolk). Sunny side up means they don't flip the egg when frying it. Over easy means they flip it once quickly to partially cook the yolk. And over hard means they cook it on both sides.

Over-medium for a soft-cooked yolk 👍

You've sampled a nice cross section of some of the best the south has to offer! i can taste those biscuits.

[@brianmelson5061]

We live about two hours from there. We love that place!

[@gregmuon]

American diner Egg Speak for travelers: "Sunny side up" = regular fried egg, mostly runny yellow yolk; "over easy" = fried egg flipped once, runny yolk; "over medium" = flipped once, partly set, partly runny yolk. Scrambled and poached are presumably obvious enough.

Biscuits in the South are made from a soft Southern wheat that is low in the proteins that make gluten, so the biscuits are naturally softer.

[@amybeard2054]

Now I want biscuits 😂

[@jstrie275]

I like biscuits with butter and honey

[@cherifinkbiner8393]

I am so hungry for that breakfast now! Gritts~

[@DarkFalls1313]

I recommend The Wagon Wheel in Eagle Pass, TX. Their chicken fried steak is HUGE!

[@hardtackbeans9790]

Scones are dense, slightly sweet, and creamy. Biscuit are much lighter & slightly tart. I think both are equally good. Try & eat on the run with a scone & you might make it there in good shape. Try that with a biscuit, and you will have some crumbs down your front. I think I prefer scones because I don't get them often.

I like them both, but I'm just so happy that someone finally recognizes that they're not the same thing. Josh and Ollie from Jolly had seen the difference they claimed, but in their last video they were right back to saying that they're the same thing
