    Biscuits with sausage gravy was one of the earlier dishes my wife cooked to woo me. Such a warm and hearty dish.

    If you’ve never had authentic sausage biscuits and gravy, you’re missing out. It’s glutenous, but so so good.

    Can’t dunk them in your tea either, not that you lot know how to make tea.

      You put the mug in the microwave, that’s how.

      Just the mug and water, mind. You microwave the teabag separately.

      Put tea bags in a pitcher of water and let it sit in a cool place for at least an hour. Serve over in a glass with ice and a lemon wedge. Sugar optional.

        Well, they fall apart a little too easy, the tea is iced and sweet which isn’t the most conducive to a dunk though not impossible, and getting gravy/sausage inside the tea does sound kinda gross to me too tbh.

        But you just take a bite with a fork and then sip your tea, it’s functionally the same.

          I’m in the northern part of the US, our tea is not sweet but probably 50/50 chance on if it’s cold or hot, depends on the weather. Most of the biscuits I have eaten in my life had no gravy, we usually would eat them with dinner like a roll or bun, we might put jam or honey on them or maybe just butter.

            Y’all’re fucking up (source: I just said “y’all’re”). Sweeten the tea (before it gets cold), and make you some gravy (brown your sausage, retain some grease but dump some in another container in case you need more but you only need like half of it, then add flour and milk while stirring, adjust for consistency, black pepper to taste).

              It’s not hard to find a good B&G in these parts, it’s just not what we had growing up. Sorry, but sweet tea can fuck right off a cliff as far as I’m concerned. GTFO of here with that syrup.

    I made these a couple years ago out of curiosity. They remind me a little of scones. They are pretty good and would go well with a roast dinner.

      They are scones. Savoury scones.

      Biscuit literally means twice cooked, from the French, originally from Latin. A biscuit is first baked, then dried. These scones are cooked but once.

      What’s really weird is that the dish originated in the British Channel Island of Guernsey, where a lot of people speak French (it is close to France than England), most of their roads are French, and they have their own French dialect. And yet they cooked something once and called it a biscuit.

    You are ok by me. I just hate a dry, crunchy biscuit, it doesn’t soak up any gravy. Prefer a roll, now there’s a gravy magnet
