Ollie dipping the sandwich in the gravy officially made him an American. 🤣
This 😂 Last night my husband and I had dinner at Longhorn. We had the white cheddar stuffed mushrooms as our appetizer. I had taken the croutons off of my salad and set them on the empty mushroom plate. He started eating the croutons, and I picked one up, ran it through the cheese sauce from the mushrooms and gave it to him to try that way. 😂 Any excuse to pick up some more ooey gooey goodness. 💯 😂
Yep! He gets us!
They just intuitively understood that gravy all over everything is the way to go. Makes my heart happy.
Yeah buddy!!! We dip!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@EssentialTruth_ your husband is cheating on u
Luke's side comments and trying food just make the videos even better. You know what Jolly should do? Surprise Luke with a foodie trip overseas. Let him think he's following you guys as a cameraman and then, at the first meal location, let him know that he is the main guest!
This!
Ok this is brilliant
Make it happen! And please god, dont let luke read this 😂
I’d absolutely watch a mini series with Luke.
And what kind of gradma do they have over there? They're supposed to love you, make you all the food, and at 4 start drinking wine or beer. Asleep by 9
Ollie 100% understand American cuisine. Just dives into that gravy with the chicken sandwich. That's it. He figured it out. You just take two things that taste good apart and put them together hoping they taste good and refuse to care about what anyone thinks seeing you do it! He figured it out! lmao
That was a pro move.
When he dipped it I instantly thought "Ollie knows what's up". I've never even had that combination before but I can just tell it'd be delicious.
I was about to comment this lol. Every Southerner approved of that move, guaranteed
In my town we have a fried chicken biscuit sandwich with gravy and bacon, called 'The Reggie', optionally adding a fried egg.
Its legendary round here.
Hey Ollie you auto-dove into gravy with your chicken sandwich yeap you've been Americanized😂😂😂😂 love you guys
watching him put the sandwich in the gravey unprompted...
it brings a tear to any southerns eye.
That, "wow!" from Luke for the sausage and gravy biscuits made me laugh. 🤣 Sometimes that's the only explanation. 😆
I think this may be the strongest reaction I’ve ever seen Ollie have to food. And as someone who is currently in the South, these three dishes - when done right - will absolutely buckle your knees.
Agreed! He has never looked so happy trying new foods
I need my knees buckled.. def adding to my list 😂
As a resident of the south, ALL of us think that our own moms make the best biscuits and gravy. :)
100%
I wouldn't go that far. You know the biscuits and gravy at that place blows your mom's grits out of the water.
@@3YearsApart1613 that's some fighting words girl..watch it.
This isn’t true. My mom actually makes the best biscuits and gravy. Everyone else’s mom makes a close 2nd.
My dad makes the best biscuits and gravy ❤
Dipping that chicken biscuit into the gravy looked like a religious experience. Welcome to southern food!
Once you dip a fluffy biscuit filled with juicy fried chicken into sausage gravy, you'll know God exists and He is good lol
@@coolbrotherf127 people often use the intricate design of the universe as evidence for creation but the real answer has been in the southern US this whole time
Pro move right there!
It did
Southern Instinct: Activated 🤣
It's not just you and not just because you're English. Biscuits and gravy just freaking slaps, man. It's the best food on the planet
Every time I see a jolly video like this, I am so happy I live in the south
what make southern food so good is the diversity in each dish. You are starting to convert to Southern thinking, by dipping your chicken into the dish and mixing the different parts you are finding more ways to enjoy the same dish. thats how we keep coming up with new dishes. intertwining recipes and spices. Honorary Southerners.
Biscuits with collards and gravy has been a favorite of mine. Take some day old collards from last night, add a spoonful or two to your biscuits and then smother it all up. Eat w tobasco its heaven.
@@uli11 You are speaking my language 😋
The reason the Bloody Mary and the shrimp and grits are so intensely spiced is that, after a long night of drinking, they wake you up in the morning! You need that intense spice to kind of jolt you back to being sober enough to get through your day, lol. So glad you found these classics, shrimp and grits is my favorite meal of all time.
Spice in all meals is necessary
Ollie didn’t even hesitate with his smile when he bit into the chicken sammie. Glad you guys are enjoying southern cooking!
As a Louisiana native, I've had many many many plates of biscuits and gravy in my day, and I can say that without a doubt, the biscuits and gravy at Willa Jean are the best I've ever had. I'm not sure who recommended this place to you guys, but it was someone who really did want you to have the best. Those are life-changing biscuits and gravy.
It looks delicious indeedq
South Louisiana native here as well. I've never seen yellow gravy. What's in it?
I would imagine it's either a cajun spice mix or hot sauce, been trying to find out info on how they do it but can't find anything@@pawpawstew
@mydadiscool1234 your right they add a bit of spice to it
I’m the general manager at willa jean, thanks so much for the high praise! Correct that it’s more red because of Cajun spice and some hot sauce
I'm so glad America is treating you well.
Grits are basically a carrier for whatever flavor you want to add. I like cheese grits but you can make all kinds of savory versions, just some salt and butter, or even honey for a sweet version.
butter and sugar on my grits
like hot sauce and butter in mine
I'm ignorant lol but I'm from NYC and don't know much about southern food besides BBQ and Chicken what are grits ?
@@justice.01997Grits are kind of similar to oatmeal or cream of rice but with cornmeal.
@@justice.01997 ground up corn, it's kinda like an oatmeal.
The fact that biscuits with gravy stole the show is not a surprise. But it is an always welcoming fact.
Biscuits and Gravy are *the* best savory breakfast food in the world. I will die on this hill.
Maybe an argument could be made that Dosa is a strong second place item.
I was born in New Orleans and raised in Mississippi about 50 miles north and I grew up with southern/Cajun food my whole life. Watching Josh and Ollie experience our food is so thrilling to me for reasons I can’t explain! We live in Tennessee now so we’re landlocked and the food here is nothing like it was there. I miss it a lot.
Shoot we’re barely staying afloat! I ain’t got money to make gumbo for my own family much less anybody else 😂 it’s rough out here! We are planning a crawfish boil for the spring though! Have to get live crawfish that are flown in to Nashville but a lot of people kick in so it won’t be as financially difficult.
@@mckayaitch7335 yeah I’m from MS too & lived in Nashville area for 25 years. The cost of living has skyrocketed over the last 7 years. Unsustainable!
As a porridge hating Scot who moved to New Orleans; I ate grits once and hated them. Your analogy was spot on. I hope that you get to try two of my favourites, a fried oyster po-boy and crawfish dressing. I no longer live there and miss the food, so it’s really nice to see you guys enjoying your culinary adventure.
In another episode they did have oyster dressing on a fried pork chop and were blown away by the flavors. To be honest, I never really liked grits either, and I'm in the deep south, 1 hour east of NOLA to be exact. But as I've grown older some of my tastes have changed and now I do enjoy grits as long as it has butter in it with a little bit of salt sprinkled.
Grits not cooked right are horrid. Cooked right, they are creamy and delicious. Salt and butter, please.
@@bevtuft3572 Salt, pepper, butter, and msg.
I'm not crazy about any food with that consistency... oatmeal, muesli, grits, porridge🤢
@@roringusanda2837 Add polenta to that list. I only recently started eating avocados and I love mashed potatoes, hummus, ice cream, and yoghurt so, it’s not all foods with that consistency. Your comment made me curious so I did a wee bit of research and it has a name: sensory food aversion which is a sensory processing disorder. It can be a symptom of ADHD and autism.
Southern food ways are actually really interesting! While there are some foods that can be considered 'pan southern' there is still a lot of variation to those dishes regionally. Being in New Orleans will have a lot of Cajun influence in that gravy than you would find in gravy from Kentucky or North Carolina. Then there will be foods that are completely southern but only found in a specific part of the south or a specific state. There are whole books written about how food in the south developed.
Actually, I'd say more Creole than Cajun influence in this segment
@@Rebel_AFCajuns are creoles.
Creole just means you or your ancestors were born in a French colony.
Which Cajuns and there ancestors were certainly born in French colonies
@Trifln214 All Cajuns are Creole, but not all Creoles are Cajun so there are some distinctions to be made. And New Orleans is typically Cajun ❤
@@kadynisapanda I’m well aware podnuh, but you keep on preaching the good word to the people
I love when they taste something good Ollie goes through all the stages of flavor and Josh just closes his eyes and accepts it like a warm hug 😂😂😂
“Why don’t we do that?!”
This is America’s secret. Of course there are very few foods completely native to the US. But every immigrant brings something new and delicious.
EDIT: “You’re erasing Native American cuisine!”
No, I’m not. What percentage of your daily diet is specifically Native American cuisine? If it’s under 5%, nearly all of your food is non-native to the US.
And we mix them all together. Literally a melting pot
The only food native to the USA is Native American food. Everything else is due to European and African influence, but yes the mixture makes it uniquely American.
They should extend their stay in the south so Luke and Ducky can share the flavorful perks!
Exactly, American cuisine is essentially a mish-mash of cuisines from around the globe
> Of course there are very few foods completely native to the US.
There are more than you think. Just off the top of my head, some of the more obvious ones include sloppy joe; PB&J; soft drinks (the entire category, but especially root beer and cola); cactus jelly; corn bread; succotash; corn on the cob; popcorn; kettle corn; caramel corn; candy corn; graham crackers; buckeyes; green been casserole; Cool Whip-based (Jell-O and/or fruit) salads; waldorf salad; fortune cookies; condensed cream of tomato soup (unless you consider any soup automatically derivative just because other types of soup existed before); and that stuff with several dozen different names that's made from mini-marshmallows, Cool Whip, crushed pineapple, and pistachio pudding mix.
America and Canada have a roughly equal claim to maple syrup, and maple-flavored foods in general.
Biscuits and gravy is also the best hangover cure, especially paired with a large ice cold sweet tea!
You mispelled menudo.
@@DannyBoyZerojajajajaja
Biscuits and sausage gravy is one of those dishes that when you initially look at it you’re like why? Then you eat it and it just blows you away!
Ollie learns quick dipping everything in the gravy. It is almost like he was a southern American in a previous life.
I'm pretty sure we'd adopt him. He's welcome to be Southern. We love funny people. He'd be invited to everybody's house all the time.
As a Louisiana Girl, I love these two guys love our food! They are so cute to see then taste our food!! Carry on guys! They should try several versions of shrimp and grits. Every restaurant does it differently! Enjoy being in the south. Cheers to a great time!! Love from a Southerner!! 🦀🦞🦐
Honestly, I'm from California but would do a week in your state just trying different red beans and rice! Love Louisiana cooking, incomparable
Biscuits and gravy is its own food group 😋
to have biscuits and gravy while a little hungover is the perfect way to eat it. nothing beats that hangover like a plate of biscuits and gravy, potatoes, and some eggs.
It's so nice and funny to see how Josh sometimes reacts to Ollie as if he had cracked an almost unsolvable equation after a long period of deliberation: "Oh you are going into the gravy with the fried chicken!" 😄🥰
Biscuits and sausage gravy will always be a top tier dish! Luke needs his own series!
Luke should film cleanup after the shoot. Finishing and reviewing the leftover food to post on a separate channel. I've got a name too... Leftovers with Luke.
@@tony_25or6to4haha, great idea
There is literally nothing better and more tasty than southern food. I had never had it until I married my husband and never looked back to regular food.😋
We were literally in New Orleans when this video dropped so we swung by here and LORD! The Sausage and gravy and the chicken biscuit were incredibly good. Still dreaming of that gravy. Thanks Jolly for the recommendation!
These videos make me so happy seeing southern cuisine tried for the first time. I honestly don’t eat shrimp and grits for breakfast hardly ever. It’s more of a brunch/lunch/dinner item for me and it varies on how good it can be depending on how it’s prepared and what variations they do. Grits are one of my favorite foods when done correctly and biscuits and gravy will always be top tier. Even “bad” biscuits and gravy are still pretty good but when you get the good stuff it’s one of the most comforting and delicious foods you can have. Great video guys!
The best thing about Jolly is the brits discovering they have taste buds. Its like seeing a baby fawn stand and walk for the first time. "yes that is what those are for little one"
🙄
as someone who is born and raised in louisiana, It is so cool seeing people from another country try our food and love it. Everyone deserves to try food in the south once in their lifetime
Guys, I grew up and live in the South. I’m glad to see our traditional foods raised to the level of “cuisine”. But I must admit that the simple foods my mother made, and the family reunions, really are something I miss. Casseroles galore, various peas and beans, cornbread and rolls, fried chicken, ham, and the most wonderful desserts you can imagine. Sadly, I am old now and relatives have mostly passed away.
yes cuisine! too often the south is said to only eat deep fried food. That misconception saddens me because they miss out on all the wonderful things we offer. What I would give right now to have smothered cabbage and some peas with cornbread or okra and tomatoes over rice!
Many of those are definitely southern. But casseroles are a Midwestern thing. We make anything into a casserole. Growing up my mom made everything from scratch except cream of mushroom soup and we had a casserole once a week lol. Tater Tot casserole is one of the best casserole IFYKYK
@
Wonderwoman3281
Sorry, can't agree. Tater tot casserole is the spawn of Satan in cassrole form.
Frankly I’m surprised an American hasn’t opened a biscuits and gravy shop in the UK. If I had the resources I’d do it myself.
Yah like texas bbq and such isnt particularly doable but biscuits and gravy is easy to get ingredients for
Stripping grits aren't typically a breakfast, more of a brunch, lunch and dinner. Chicken and biscuits with gravy. Pretty common in the south and it's a fantastic meal. Ollie you are dead on for dipping that chicken biscuit in your gravy. That's a very southern thing to do. Welcome to the south my friend
Shrimps and grits aren't typically for breakfast because it's too strong of a flavor
I grew up eating it for breakfast and dinner. It's just one of those dishes.
I have been watching this channel for a few years and have not yet commented. But, I wanted to say that I always look forwards to your videos and feel joy seeing that a new one has been posted. Thank you for all the hard work and love put into Jolly and Korean Englishmen!
I rarely watch reaction videos, but some of the ones of this trip from people in the south have been hilarious, loving this series!
You should see their older ones, they are just as good especially their first visits to the south
As a Southerner, watching them enjoy our food makes us very Jolly :)
Thank you for doing these videos. Sometimes I think US cuisine is underrated on the world stage and you are helping change that perception a video at a time. Much obliged, fellows, for showing the world how very, very good our food can be. As the other commentators have pointed out, we took the best from all over the world and ran with it. Add to that glorious international panoply an historical perspective (for example, our biscuits date back to early European settlers- think your navy's hardtack as the starting point- to which we added a bit of rise, fat and other flavors that improved over time) and an understanding of what ethnic groups settled where and a wonderfully complex picture emerges. You could travel the US for many years and still not taste everything there is to offer, but you are both young enough to give it a real go. Thank you for showing that we do not just eat crisps, boxed dinners and swill garishly-colored sugary drinks. Of course, we like those things too🙂but the reality of what we eat lies far beyond these. And the generous South holds a truly unique and special place in US cuisine.
Well said
ollie makes this channel. his humor is unmatched on every episode.
I live in Baton Rouge now and have lived in NOLA. I visit my daughter who goes to Tulane and this is our spot. I’ve had biscuits and gravy everywhere. Willa Lean’s has the best ever. Not even close. Period, the end! The hangover bowl is wonderful too!
Yes, as a southerner, I can confirm Willa Jean's brunch is legit.... god I hope you guys get a video on here of some French Market coffee and a beignet snack, truly a New Orleans thing... would be like going to Texas and not getting brisket
Ollie is the absolute best at dipping his toe over the line into just slightly uncomfortable commentary, the man is a genius
I love these guys so much. I watch Jolly and KE videos after listening to Mr. Ballen tell stories, because they are mostly (but not always) dark, scary and frequently sad. Or watching or news stories (I'm in the US, and there are a LOT of not-good things happening here). So I come to Jolly to lighten my mood and end my viewing day on a positive note. And they never fail to cheer me up. Heck, I think just watching without sounds could make me smile. Their expressions are priceless.
It's great to see you enjoy all the great food America has to offer. I enjoy your personnel videos and the British students trying American foods also. Thank You.
It makes me so happy when people discover southern cooking. feeds the soul. (DESTROYS the cardiovascular system.)
But you die happy
Thank you Jolly for all the culinary cuisines you guys experience and present to us. ❤
your welcome
As an American I find such joy in watching these young men enjoying some of the foods that were polished & perfected in the United States. The roots are French but Creole cooking grew to what it is here in the US & we can't say that about much.
Josh & Ollie, you guys are awesome. As a southern (from Arkansas) 72-year young gay male, I love the fact you guys love our southern cooking. Many things you have eaten used to be called poor folks' food. (That means the same as "comfort food"!) We never considered them delicacies, just down home eatin'. LOL, I do love your comments on our food. We Americans ALL take pride in our vast variety of foodstuffs. That said, I have friends here in Missouri who were born & raised in the UK. The dishes he has made for me are also very awesome. Mates, trust me when I say, we (Yanks & Brits) are cousins. Keep up the great work you do. It is much appreciated.
Ollie’s analogies continue to amaze. Shrimp and Gritz = Jazz? Yes apparently 😅
Jazz, another New Orleans invention.
If you come to the north end of the Mississippi you won't find nearly the same bold flavors, but you will find a lot of hearty comfort food done well. There is also Owamni by the Sioux Chef, a restaurant that uses no ingredients introduced to America by Europeans.
Josh: "Grits are growing on me"
Ollie: "I'll scratch them off for you"
Ollie: "Grits, sounds like something you clear off the road of"
Ollie you are a genius and got me ROFLing
I never heard of shrimp & grits until I worked in New Orleans. I couldn't believe I lived 130 miles west of New Orleans most of my life and had never heard of it. I highly recommend that if you've never tried it, you need to.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the coconut cake that appeared at the very end of your video. To my palate, that was the best thing served to you for that meal. I make a fresh coconut cake every Christmas for the family dinner. Iam 72 and coconut cake has been a scrumptious part of every Christmas I can remember.
I was wondering same thing!
Yea to bad they're skipped it..but the cookies was amazing to look at
I’m in UK missing my grits and eggs - oh and those biscuits and gravy! Cheers Josh and Olly! 🍻
You guys and your crew have the best jobs in the world!
Two wholesome Britain it's always a pleasure.
3:41 sop that biscuit in gravy is a southern thing. My elderly uncle used to tell beautiful women I could sop you up like biscuit and gravy 😂
I love Ollie wearing the Carrotland sweatshirt. 😄
Bloody Mary is a drink people have with a savory breakfast when they have a hangover. It's just a weekend, or once in awhile thing.
A New Orleans grandma would definitely cook you biscuits and gravy when you have a hangover. It’s all part of the culture. 😁💜
Food looks incredible. Really tempting me to take that 6 hour road trip and try all the restaurants Josh and Ollie went to.
i really like how he automatically knew to run that fried chicken through gravy. *tips cap
Biscuits and gravy is so easy to make. It was my favorite meal as a kid. Take it home with you. Spread the LOVE!
I don't know what it is about you'lls videos but I LOVE THEM!! The commentary is spot on, the assessment of the food. I love it!! Some one in Washington DC (me) is loving your videos!! XOXO
I’m so glad that man dipped that sandwich in that gravy man’s slowly starting to become american😂
Right!? Josh questioned it and I’m like “Oh absolutely hell yes dude, are you kidding?”
I’m telling you … Ollie needs to think think deeply and clearly about his other future jobs like go on a comedy tour..he could make it as a comedian.. 😂 🤣
Southern biscuits and gravy seems like it would be a hit in the UK everywhere. I cannot image why there isn't a chain of Brisket and Gravy restaurants all across the UK.
Why doesn't Greg's sell it? You could dip the sausage roll in it.
Can I be Josh's stomach? Between eating the best beef and pork in the world in South Korea, 3 Star Michelin foods at Macau and this, he's savouring life for sure!
Absolutely perfect timing for a rainy chilly day. Cheers lads!❤
Y’all have some great one liner phrases to describe dishes. 😄💕
The chemistry between these two are amazing these young lads get it
I laughed out loud at Ollie dipping the chicken biscuit into the gravy, that’s the way to do it, mate!! 😂
Wondering if they are going to get Po Boys, Étouffée, Beignets, and Cafe Du Monde? I also would like to see New England food in the future and hear the jokes Ollie might have on that area
I lived in the south for 45 years. Moved to Maine and find a lot of UK influences in the New England food. It's kind of bland and they eat baked beans for breakfast. In the south, baked beans are for picnics or family reunions. Lol
I wonder if Ollie would try to suck the head of a lobster there too. 🤣🤣🤣
If they don't get beignets at Cafe DuMonde, they aren't doing New Orleans right.
I hope so..going to school in southern MS, the shrimp or catfish po’ boy was my go to meal
Gravy is about one of the easiest things to make too. Another thing we (southern americans) put gravy on is white toast. We call it S.O.S. and it came from when people didn't have time to make biscuit dough and then bake them. The gravy is simply sausage or bacon grease, with a little white four mixed in, then add cow's milk, keep stirring and then let it simmer. the longer you stir the thicker it becomes. Then simply serve. It's amazing on anything really.
Watching this while fasting is absolutely brutal! It looks so GOOD!!!!
Biscuits and gravy will always steal the show. Shrimp and grits are delicious but I could eat biscuits and gravy every day. I love the reactions of just "wow" 😂 I have never tried a Bloody Mary because I gag at just the sight of tomato juice, but it looks absolutely disgusting to me as well. Ollie's drink looked great, though
I recently spent two weeks in London. I really feel bad for those folks over there. These two are not kidding around. This food is AWESOME to them. It's every day for us.
i'm from louisiana and lived in england for five years. the food situation over there is absolutely dire. what's even more frustrating is 90% of brits think you're taking the piss when you tell them it's so bad.
We (Americans) are so blessed!
For the best shrimp and grits you need to go to one of the fish houses that hang out over the water off the coast, or on a river in the middle of nowhere.
Where they bring the catch right up on the dock beside it.
It looks like its been cobbled together from a few other shacks and been added onto over the years with no regard to matching the material of the original structure.
It's worth traveling a few hours just to eat there.
Ollie’s wit is world class, perfect foil to Josh.
At the end of my dad's life, he would only eat biscuits & gravy. Bless him. He had good taste.
NOLA resident here, and shrimp & grits are the quintessential gift from the gods to humankind.
The Good The Bad and the Ugly!!!! Love it! Fantastic backdrop for the showdown❤❤
You're doing it right and wrong at the same time. NOLA is one of the world's greatest food cities, and it's extremely hard to find something bad to eat. So it's kind of pointless to review anything. It's all good. That's the downside (if there is one). The upside is that you're in one of the world's greatest culinary destinations. Enjoy!
1:33 It's like a pair of Owen Wilsons. (Gets further in) Looks like we share the same braincell.
Biscuits and gravy, in my opinion, is one of the best hangover foods. It’s warm, tasty, and settles your stomach. It looks delicious!!
You guys will never be the same back in good ol' England.😊
"It's better than Waffle House" is high praise 😂
I learned of shrimp and grits while living in New Orleans. It remains one of my top three favorite things to eat but I prefer it for brunch or even dinner over breakfast.
Ive lived all over the south from the carolinas to Lafayette and Texas and i love it whenever yall come to the South
God I want Biscuits and Gravy soooo bad.
If you like italian polenta, you will like grits - grits are a bit more coarsely ground and are usually flavored with butter or cheese or both. As for shrimp and grits, there are as many variations and styles as there are cooks.
I always find it entertaining when Commonwealth residents experience spices beyond salt a pepper, we have friends from Canada, NZ and from S. Africa (not commonwealth) who come to the US.
The food taste descriptions Ollie comes up with…so hilarious!!!
I love your friendship that's it.
I love when Jolly area at their best friendiest!!
Here's why Southern biscuits are so made for soaking up gravy; we have sausage gravy, red eye gravy, tomato gravy, chocolate gravy, beef gravy, turkey gravy, chicken gravy, sawmill gravy (white gravy that is pretty much sausage gravy without the sausage, basically), we have lots of gravies, and you need a great bread to soak them all up! And you still need to come to Cleveland County, NC to try real pulled pork and also, LIVERMUSH!!!
I genuinely get so much joy from seeing these men just truly enjoy delicious food!!
