When I make mine I start with a pint of heavy cream and then whole milk to get the consistency that I want. Learned that trick working as a cook at the Truck stop on weekends. You never saw a bunch of drunk folks quiet down and behave like they did when we had to make another batch and told them if they didn't behave we wouldn't make the sausage gravy. We had to make it in five gallon batches on Friday and Saturday nights. Sometimes two and three batches a night! Customers wanted it on just about everything it was so good.

I just received a comment from a sub that said "Trump pops up on your channel? Unsubscribed" Let me educate those of you that don't know how KZfaq works.

Something for you folks to try. Evaporated milk, one can. Let thicken, does this fast. Add water to a good consistency. You can use milk instead of water. Evaporated milk I find adds a fuller, richer tasting gravy. Give it a try! Thanks for the vids! Good looking gravy, btw!

I was born in New York City and grew up in southwest Ohio. I've been making biscuits and gravy for over 40 years as follow: Make a batch of buttermilk biscuits (I will admit I often use bisquick or frozen biscuits, but never canned). Break up a pound of breakfast sausage (I prefer Jimmy Dean) in a skillet. Cook and stir until browned. Add bacon grease to skillet. Stir in flour to form a rieux. Cook and stir the rieux until light brown. Add milk and salt and pepper to taste. Cook and stir gravy until thickened. Break up 2 biscuits on a plate. Smother completely with gravy. Top with 2 eggs over easy, along with a little more salt and pepper.

I love making biscuits and gravy. I've found over the years, that for a bit of extra lightness in the biscuits, add 1/4 tsp baking soda besides the baking powder the recipe asks for. Then use either buttermilk or "vinegar buttermilk" instead of plain milk. (Put 2 Tbsp vinegar in a cup, and fill it with milk. It'll clabber a bit.) The baking soda and vinegar will interact and puff those biscuits a bit higher. On the gravy, there's different variations out there. I personally prefer precooking the sausage, and setting it aside while I make a roux with butter and flour. No sausage grease. Then milk or milk-and-water, as you did. But I only bring the gravy to a good boil, and then take her off the fire. The longer you cook it, the stronger the acidity gets. Crumble the pre-cooked sausage in, and keep her warm. But of course, it's an art. And like all arts, every artist has his/her own style. :) I enjoyed watching!

Thank you for that recipe for sausage I love biscuits and gravy it's one of my favorite things to eat

Great job, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for keeping politics out. Love seeing you make breakfast. I need a rack for my biscuits .

Great video! This is one of my favorite breakfast dishes, especially when camping.

Looks great! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome!

Gravy and the bisquits both look very good!

Awesome sausage recipe.

My Family is from up here in Vermont. But I was the only one that was raised down south in Florida. There are two things they can't cook up here. Green Beans and Sausage Biscuits and gravy. Thank-you! I can't wait to try this!. :)

Looks great. Thanks for the tips and sharing you experience Semper Fi brother.

WOW this is awesome. I have watched so many videos on how to make sausage gravy. This one hit home. this is how my mother taught me to make sausage gravy. To a T... minus the water finish but details.... ehhhh. I loved this video as my mother always cooked sausage gravy in cast iron. she was a chef and Thank god I inherited the gift.

I didn't realize you could stack the Dutch ovens - great idea!

This looks amazing I'm irish have never seen this but I'ma do this tomorrow it looks nice...

Looks good

that looks absolutely delicious!!!

Hey big guy. One of my absolute favorite dishes of all time sausage and gravy biscuits with some delicious scrambled eggs and of course life wouldn't be complete if you didn't have a little apple sauce on the side. Thanks for the video I learned a few things I love cooking sausage gravy I think very good at it I don't do my own sausage usually use geunoes with sage. Thanks again.

Being British I miss this cooking from my time in Kentucky. And as I've started to learn duch oven cooking I can't wait to try this although I may cheat and get store bought sausage

Love the video! I am in ove with cast iron cooking!

Great video! If I may share, I do a 50/50 mix of the Boston butt and lean elk for my sausage. Mama does not like the taste of sage, so I increase the rosemary and use thyme as well. I also add a bit of red pepper for a little heat. Love biscuits and gravy! Thanks for the video!

Hey what’s going on bro... Man that looks so good... You Rock bro... Thank you for sharing...☮️

Thanks for sharing! As cast iron becomes more popular, I expect channels like yours to continue to grow.

My brother, Brad, made THE BEST sausage gravy in our parent’s diner!! Yet he HATED it!! Just proof that if you know the recipe and have house made sausage you can do it! If you add homegrown strawberry preserves you’ve got a high calorie breakfast ready to get you through a day of hay bailing like no other!!.. YUM..YUM!😋

Just the way I wish I could do it! Looks mighty fine. I make my own sausage, too. One 'old time' cook said she always put way more rising agent in her biscuits; then she cut them and put them in the freezer overnight. From there it was straight into a 450 F. oven. Hers rose better than mine did.

Your right about not holding back on the coals on top! :) Excellent

Using buttermilk to make gravy will be the nastiest thing youve ever put in your mouth. Been there done it because i was out of regular milk.

Nice recipe thanks. Love your videos. You cook recipes I would cook. Keep it up amigo

need more bread great job Thanks

That style of dutch oven cooking is awesome. I really need a set of those. Great video! Totally gonna try this.

As always, I enjoyed the video a lot. I have never made my own sausage and this video makes me want to try. Off I go to amazon to look at grinders.

somewhere in the world, there's 54 people that have no idea what good simple food is!

Thanks. I enjoyed this vid, dunno why because I’ve never eaten biscuits and gravy. I am obviously missing out here.

Great Job!!!! My mouth is watering. Looks super. Going to have to make that. Thanks for posting. Just subscribed to your channel.

Looking Good there buddy

Tastey I bet. Loved the vid. Already a sub

Love that cooking table do you have a vid on it?

Venison would be great in this.

Dang, I am hungry.

Nice hat marine. Thanks 4 ur service oorah

I like to add about a half a cup of Bon Ami to the mix. It really sharpens up the flavor.

All that was missing is a poached egg and a good cup of coffee! Nice job dude !

Southern food is the best ain't it. Those biscuits and gravy looked so good

Mm mm yummy goodness

Great job I just made some breakfast sausage Good Eats Recipe Its really good ,Have to make the biscuits and gravy ,Well done ...Just subscribed

The rack for the biscuits excellent , I would just make sure that I had plenty of butter in bottom of oven to not only prevent the burn but season the biscuits that butter taste whenever I cooked , so I’ll get a rack and try it that way ! Thanks

Can you give me a link to learn about the temperatures and how many brockets to use for certain temp. Would be great if you make a video

We do that and top it with a fried egg...

Thank you for this video. It’s like camping. Can you tell me what brand of meat grinder you use and where I can purchase one. Appreciate it.

can milk is awesome

I am impressed by a splendid idea. I want to make it, too.

I love Bs and Gs but as far as Kingsford VS lump whats best?

Semper Fi

What brand is the Dutch oven that comes with a round rack I need one , your videos are awesome thanks for being detailed in your process

ever try hamburger gravy. my uncle made it for us as kids . good stuff

Always need more gravy and more gravy... Did I mention more gravy..

I would like to have your buscuit recipe

If someone is dumb enough to put politics ahead of eating you don't want them around anyway! Here's my subscription to show some of us still have good sense.

Great video. Again, thanks for not jumping straight for the self-rising flour. Scratch is as scratch does!

You could egg wash your biscuits too to brown them up a bit more

so would lump charcoal burn too hot?

How did you come about the surface you are cooking on? Thanks

Fuckin A, just starting to cook with Dutch Ovens, always had a cast iron skillet/pan did my gravy in, want to try some trail Biscuits in my Dutch Oven, Go Army

Don't need a rack, just don't place your coal under your DO, place them around the perimeter and use a raised tree to place it on..., and always turn the bottom one way, the lid the other....and do it often, just remember, everytime you raise the lid, you allow the heat to escape...

What size grinder is that and brand

Mmmmm. Just checking out some old vids. Making that sausage just got me fired up. Have you ever made deer sausage? It's that time of year.

TRULY NOT ENOUGH SAUSAGE IN IT FOR ME , BUT IT LOOKS GOOD 😚

Looks great, love me some gravy! Do you make SOS or Sh#@ on a shingle? Used to love it when my Grandpa made it for us. Cheers from N. Cal. via WNC I really enjoy your channel since I found it!

You need to cook two slices of bacon and save the grease from it and then cook your sausage in the bacon grease... It has a lot of flavor

I assume that you was in the Marine Corps., as I noticed that you was wearing one of their caps. I was in the Air Force and worked with the Marines at 29 Palms, and Camp Pendleton in California. We had to ship the Marines and their equipment on the C-141's when I was stationed at Norton AFB. While there I ended up going to El Toro, Camp Pendleton, and 29 Palms, and also worked at Miramar MCAS (Then Navy), and Pt. Magu NAS. I was raised with the large pot in the yard which we used to heat water to wash clothes with and also cook pork rinds, and make lard in Winter from Swine. My grandmother had this one skillet she used to cook our meals in and I still have that skillet. I recently ordered two Lodge dutch ovens from Amazon, which I received, and is still waiting for my skillet I ordered from Stargazer and being patient about getting it since they have such a back order for them. I am getting away from the non stick cookware since I got tired of buying new pans every year or two because they wore out. I love the look of the buscuits and gravy you cooked and I learned to eat that while in tech school while in the Air Force since that was the best meal during the day back in 1968.

If you heat the milk before adding makes it easy .

Would it be too much to ask self rising flour or plain flour....

Where are the scrambled eggs on top of that biscuit under that gravy???

Are you on a diet? Thats not even close enough gravy for me! Double that with a couple eggs, grits and hash browns. And then I would be happy.

Kids, only use wood utensils on cast iron

Store bound

since I can't do pork could I use buffalo or even venison....?

You had me till you put that sage in there lol.

use a wooden spoon. those steel tongs scraping on the cast iron is brutal

Where is this, Africa?? Don't you have a stove?? James, subscribed

I think your ‘biscuits’ are like our scones. My mum makes fabulous scones cause she has a very light hand with the dough. She barely mixes the ingredients and only very lightly pats it down flat. She says anything more is forcing the air out of the dough and leads to flat scones.

7:25 for Fk's sake use the wooden spatula!

Shit on a shingle.....same idea

On future videos please use a wooden spatula. Scraping the pan with the steel tongs ia very irritating. Thanks

Sausage seems a little too lumpy for me, could be finer.

can't believe you don't make your own biscuits

You should really take that metal utensil and scratch the hell out of your Dutch oven. Keep scratching until you have put grooves into the bottom. When you have done this, scratch some more. This way, the seasoning will be completely gone and you should be a happy camper. On a more serious note, why aren't you using wooden utensils like you're supposed to? You scratch and scratch in most of your videos.

Just food for thought, when stirring with metal utensils try not to talk at the same time. Can't hear what you are saying during these times.

Trump for president

You didn't make enough gravy to cover all the biscuits you made. As much sausage as you cooked for gravy you should have had 3-4 times as much gravy.

Mustard! You forgot the mustard!

Urrrgh that's not gravy gravy is made with water and juices of meat and veg hmmm no thankyouuuuuuuu

It drives me crazy to see using mental cooking utensils on your cast iron cookware. I will only use wooden utensils on mine.
