Gravy comes in many different styles and flavors. There is chicken gravy, turkey gravy, beef gravy, red gravy, and many more. Each gravy goes with a different meat or other foods.
Lol I see British people (not y'all of course 💕) turn up their noses for white sausage gravy since they haven't had it but turn around and eat blood pudding for breakfast. Hearing the ingredients in both options I will choose the white sausage gravy anytime.
@@kathleenchilcote9127 aye in their defense beans on toast is decent but it’s bland as hell lmao I remember a joke about how Britain took over India for spices but they never thought to use it in their food 😂
I have a bunch of family that lives in Scotland. They came over to the United States for the Holidays last year. None of them had ever had Southern Comfort food. Which we here in the south call "Soul Food." They were skeptical about a bunch of it. Once they had it they were hooked. my immediate family constantly get messages, and pictures of them making the Soul Food back in Scotland. Sometimes they make tweaks to the recipes and they call it "Scottish Soul Food." Its the classic "don't judge a book by its cover," situation.
For real. I lived in England for two years, and believe me, the food is nothing to write home about unless you go to the ethnic neighborhoods for takeaway. About the only British food that I miss is their fish and chips, nothing else.
It's always amazing to me that Brits will only define gravy as being brown. We have brown gravy made with beef stock, but we also have white gravy and chicken gravy, etc. If you open up their sausage rolls, the filling looks about like sausage gravy that they all seem to gag at.
A lot of what we call Spaghetti sauce is also considered gravy in Italy, The first gravy recipes are from France and cover a very broad category of sauces. And cream cheese is used in many desserts .
Okay let me address to you about the biscuits and gravy. In no way should biscuits and gravy have that much meat let alone little gravy. No true southerner should cook it like that. A TRUE southern dish of biscuits and gravy contains moderately thick gravy poured with SOME chunks of sausage equally with love on top of your biscuits. I love biscuits and gravy, but that looked like straight throw up. That person who made that needs a whooping. SO sorry for you to witness that, Sophie.
😛 What’s wrong with bangers and mash? I remember having the American version in the grade school cafeteria - they were called ‘flying saucers’. A big ice cream scoop of mashed potatoes on what I remember as fried bologna. We loved ‘em as 7-8 year olds.
@@pacmanc8103 nothings wrong with it. I just think it’s funny comparing bangers and mash to biscuits and gravy. I just think bangers and mash is a weird thing to call food😊and don’t think biscuits and gravy sounds weird. That’s it🤷♂️
@@thekegster92 I guess if you think bangers and mash is a weird name you would think "spotted dick" was totally bizarre! And, it's a dessert, lol. I just always imagine someone in the royal family requesting that for dessert with their very proper, posh accents. Makes me laugh.
My grandparents grew up during the Great Depression and we had chicken and dumplings a lot but my grandmother would make potato and dumplings which she said came from “hard times” and they couldn’t afford the use chicken. I guess the eggs were more valuable. Potato and dumplings are actually my favorite over chicken ones.
So many comfort foods came out of hard times. Look at Black soul food. Collard greens, chitterlings, pig feet, fried chicken, sweet potatoes . . . these were the scraps that the slave owners didn't want so they let us have them. And we made 'em gooooood!
Texas Roadhouse and some other steakhouses serve whole peanuts and encourage the guests to throw the shells on the floor. The reason is peanut shells contain a natural oil that's good for the wood floors. People throwing shells on the floor and walking on them all day (they get swept up daily) are actually helping maintain the establishment by keeping the floor well oiled.
The gravy in the biscuits and gravy is made with white gravy and breakfast sausage. They need more gravy with the sausage so it actually looks like gravy instead of vomit. Never seen it with cheese before in my 52 years of life lol The only way I will eat grits is with lots of cheese and lots of grilled shrimp. It's really good that way. Boiled peanuts are pretty good. You wouldn't think so but they are. I grow my own crawfish in the small bayou on my land. I eat them regularly in all kinds of dishes. They're so good.
Hi guys! I grew up with most of these dishes. Chow chow, which I've never heard of, reminds me of relish. My favorites are gumbo, fried catfish, beignets, fried green tomatoes, and homemade apple pie. I really don't like mac and cheese, but I love different types of chili. My favorite stew is homemade beef stew. My mom's, may she rest in peace, was biscuits and gravy. On New Year's Day, she would make us a ham and bean stew with the leftover ham bone from Christmas, a certain kind of bean, and malt vinegar. We would eat it with cornbread. It was supposed to give us good luck for the New Year. It's cool that you all are interested in different goods and cultures. Keep the videos coming. By the way, I highly recommend that Gaynor watch the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes" with Kathy Bates, Jessica Tandy, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Mary Louise Parker. It is one of my favorites. It is based on the book,"Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe," by Fannie Flagg.
I'm from Alabama and the idea of cheese between the biscuits and the sausage gravy offends my very soul. (BTW, would it help if, instead of "white gravy," we said "bechamel sauce?" Because that's what it is, with the bacon or sausage fat taking the place of the butter. It becomes sausage gravy when you mix the sort-of-bechamel with crumbled sausage meat.)
I've eaten many squirrels, my mother use to fry them and make gravy from the leftovers and serve mashed potatos with the gravy and fried squirrel, it was delicious.
Gravy is a thickening of the juices from a meat, primarily consists of the various forms of fats from the meats. Sausage gravy (the white gravy from the biscuits) is made from the dripping of breakfast sausages and is usually thickened with flower and a dairy product (typically milk or cream or half and half) hence why the gravy is whitish. Now the initial gravy shown is unusually thick, it is more runny than that in typical southern cuisines.
My uncle Joe always said rat traps nailed to a tree with peanut butter worked great for catching squirrels, that was his go to method for some extra meat when he was really broke.
21:38 they described in the video that the hot brown was an open-faced sandwich Meaning that whilst it's on 2 slices of bread, it's not wrapped around the meat that's in the sandwich
My neighbor makes her cornbread with corn kernels, bacon and chopped onions in it. She says her great grandmother called it johnny cake. He family is in Alabama and has been for generations. I think she said since the 1810s.
Oklahoma here, that video is incorrect. Chicken Fried Steak is the national dish of Oklahoma. It was created by German immigrants as a variation on Scnitzel, as they found beef was much cheeper.
Gizzards are not the stomach. It's a very muscular organ in the neck, also called the crop. When a chicken eats the grain, grass, insect and grit (or dirt) the gizzard just grinds them all into mush, so the chicken can digest it. When prepared well, they are quite tasty.
In all fairness, I'm from the south and our sausage gravy doesn't look like that. Ours is an actual creamy gravy with bits of sausage. It does not look anything like what I'm seeing on the screen.
The best cornbread I've had is made when you use bacon grease instead of oil to coat the bottom of the pan before pouring the batter in (that's how mom made it). It's also good Mexican-style with corn kernels and jalapenos in it. I love fried green tomatoes by themselves. Be cautious with okra. Fried is the best way to eat it if you haven't grown up with is because boiled okra is slimy. A sandwich with 1 slice of bread is commonly called an "open-faced sandwich." Potlikker is *AWESOME* poured over cornbread! I know lots of people like rhubarb, but I find it disgusting. Raw, it tastes like soap, to me. I won't eat it unless it's in a strawberry rhubarb pie, and even then, only when it's the only dessert available.
That sausage and biscuit representation was not very accurate. The gravy really resembles what you saw on the chicken fried steak but a bit thicker with chunks of breakfast sausage in it. I have been eating it all my life and never have I seen it like how it was presented in this video.
The gizzard is inside the neck. They hold gravel and sand in there to help them grind up food. It isn't the stomach, it's inside the base of their neck.
Biscuits and gravy: super soft, buttery, salty scone, sausage is crumbled Grits: Polenta with water instead of milk and typical a coarse grind and loaded with cheese… cooked to a porridge consistency, not a solidified cake
Oh you should watch the video British school children try comfort food. Lol they also said biscuits and gravy looked like vomit then they tasted it and loved it😂
One of the weirdest things about food is the white gravy thing. It's so good and everywhere here but anyone else is like whaaat never heard of it we only have brown gravy. IMO white gravy is the best gravy, you should try it... very simple to make. In fact at several fast food places if you order chicken strips you will get white gravy for dipping by default.
ikr? I don't get the mindset that there is only one color of gravy. They don't know what they are missing. I love all gravy. I would add the delicious golden brown gravy from ham and turkey. Turkey dinner without gravy would be sacrilegious! lol.
I've never seen cheese on biscuits and gravy in my life and I love biscuits and gravy. Rabbit is actually very good. 😂 I've had a full English breakfast and everything was great...except the black pudding. It's funny seeing people from the UK be disgusted by some of our food considering they eat black pudding (blood sausage) and Haggis (using an intestine as a casing) which we typically find disgusting.
(1) Regarding the chicken & waffles... While it is true that fried chicken does taste really good with syrup, waffles also taste good with chicken gravy. But the very same sausage gravy poured over bisquits tastes fabulous on waffle. (2) Every single item on the list of foods can be made in a fairly large variety of ways -- since the southern U.S. has no cook cloning facility.
A gizzard actually is not the stomach it comes before the stomach. It's basically a muscle that grinds their food before it goes into the stomach. It chickens often eat small rocks that stay in the gizzard to help grind the food. Chickens don't have teeth.
Your mom said she might make a jambalaya, she aught to make some fried green tomatos too (you guys sounded authentic American btw when you said it with the long a lol) and react to the movie Fried Green Tomatos.
Again, we have any number of types of gravy, there's the brown gravy you're familiar with, there is sausage gravy (or sawmill gravy), mainly served at breakfast over biscuits (the kind in the picture). We have chicken gravy, redeye gravy, shrimp gravy (served over grits) plus a number of others. If you had salty grits then the cook wasn't all that good, and we don't consider it a porridge. Do the British only have one type of gravy, I'm curious because a lots of British people only mention brown gravy when you mention gravy? Jambalaya taste nothing like Paella.
Gravy, by definition, is a sauce made from cooked meat juices with a liquid added and then thickened. Just because you are only aware of brown gravy doesn't change the definition. Biscuits and gravy is made with a sausage gravy. The sausage is browned, releasing it's juices which are then used to make a roux by adding flour and letting it cook a few more minutes before adding milk slowly and then seasoning with salt and pepper (maybe a pinch of sugar). This means by definition sausage gravy is a gravy. Also, a biscuit is like what would happen if a scone looked at a croissant and thought "I should do better" and then did something about it. Biscuits and gravy is an American breakfast stapple and so good that mocking it is damned near fighting words. that being said the picture of it shown in this video looks like really poorly done biscuits and gravy and I want to slap it's maker for the cheese slices being there.
the gizzards are some of the internal organs and originated from slavery, where the masters gave their slaves the meat they didn't want and the slaves figured out how to cook them.
I’ve been to England and let me tell you, I would never recommend anyone having the food. The breakfast is soooo wet. Everything oozes. The blood sausage, no no to all of it. The beans made me gag so much I couldn’t eat for a full day. They other stuff I tried was really bland. For some reason everything is wet and beige. The best way I can describe it is depression personified. Nothing has color and it’s all basically the same. Oh and the weird mashed peas with the fish and chips is atrocious. I was soooo happy when we finally flew to France cuz I was starving. Now their food is fantastic. If your thinking of going to England just spend a few hours between the layover. Can’t wait to go Italy 😊
i’m not gonna listen to brit’s who think beans on toast is peak food going off about biscuit gravy. first of all you guys have never had american biscuits, and sausage gravy is the best. to be fair that photo looks a bit weird but it’s amazing
They couldn't have shown a worse image of biscuits and gravy... That gravy looked nasty and wayyyy too chunky. No one eats it like that. The cheese with it made me laugh.
Jolly did Southern food. When Josh saw the baked beans he said, “ these don’t look like the beans we have in England, they’re brown”. The chef they were with responded” That’s called flavor” 😂
It's better. The Brits always think biscuits and gravy seem, or look nasty, but they have no idea just how delicious it really is. I have a local restaurant here in New Jersey, where the owner brought his southern recipe with him....my gosh....heaven on Earth.
I like how disgusted Aidan gets just by the word "cornbread". 😂 If he ever had proper made southern cornbread with a bowl of chili, he might change his mind.
There are so many kinds of cornbread--sweet, not sweet, with onions, not with onions, white corn, yellow corn. It's hard to say you don't like it until you've tried them all.
I notice a lot of Brits seem to instantly dislike many foods, without even giving them a try! I always look at foods I've never had with some hope that I'd like it, and it's been rare that I've truly disliked a food- liver and onions, as well as oysters are my Kryptonite! If people go in assuming they're going to hate it, they probably will, so miss out on enjoying a great variety of amazing foods!
I never liked cornbread cuz there is a specific flavor that tastes like a chemical to me. Either just the bread or corn dogs. But grits & sausage & gravy yum.
I would be more offended but, then I remember that your standard is British food! Things like kidney pie, beans on toast and blood sausage are regarded as creme in the UK food world. 😂
She was deliberately talking about the consistency It's not really bread. It's not really a cake. The closest consistency she could describe was a muffin, that is very accurate I'm from the deep south and I grew up eating cornbread Grandma made in a cast iron pan
Them gagging at biscuits and gravy and cornbread hurts my head. I know they’ve probably never had it cooked right like mamaw used to but it’s so foreign to me. Absolutely delicious!
I was deciding whether or not to be offended, but then I realized you guys eat beans on toast..... I kid! Biscuits and gravy and grits are two of my favorites,My dad used to bring back fried chicken hearts for me when he came back from the deli, and my mom must have made Brunswick Stew at least 5 times a month when I was growing up.
White sausage gravy is a treasure...it is soooo good. Dumplings I grew up with were just the dumplings in a chicken broth with chopped chicken, no veggies. We also use ham instead of chicken sometimes. Served with cornbread. Grits, some like it others don't....but done and seasoned right with plenty of butter with fried eggs are great. Never ever liked boiled peanuts...but many love the spicy ones.
The gravy in the picture isn't right. Fry crumbled breakfast sausage, after cooked throw in handful of flour, cup of milk and cup of water. Stir vigorously for less than a minute, turn off and remove from heat. Salt and pepper to taste, pour over rolls or flaky "biscuits" (not cookies). Gravy gets thick quickly so get your fire off fast.
There is a vlog called "JOLLIE" where two British guys feed biscuits and gravy to English school boys. You need to see the reaction after tasting on first seeing their reactions was like yours.
Gravy comes in many different styles and flavors. There is chicken gravy, turkey gravy, beef gravy, red gravy, and many more. Each gravy goes with a different meat or other foods.
Exactly

A gizzard is an organ in the digestive track of some animals and is the part of the digestive system responsible for grinding up food.
In the military biscuits and gravy are not served on biscuits but on sliced bread. They name it SOS (sh_t on a shingle).
The gizzard is inside the neck. They hold gravel and sand in there to help them grind up food. It isn't the stomach, it's inside the base of their neck.
The gizzard is in the body cavity of a chicken, not in its neck. It’s beyond the esophagus.

Do the British only have one type of gravy, I'm curious because a lots of British people only mention brown gravy when you mention gravy? Jambalaya taste nothing like Paella.
Gravy, by definition, is a sauce made from cooked meat juices with a liquid added and then thickened. Just because you are only aware of brown gravy doesn't change the definition. Biscuits and gravy is made with a sausage gravy. The sausage is browned, releasing it's juices which are then used to make a roux by adding flour and letting it cook a few more minutes before adding milk slowly and then seasoning with salt and pepper (maybe a pinch of sugar). This means by definition sausage gravy is a gravy. Also, a biscuit is like what would happen if a scone looked at a croissant and thought "I should do better" and then did something about it. Biscuits and gravy is an American breakfast stapple and so good that mocking it is damned near fighting words. that being said the picture of it shown in this video looks like really poorly done biscuits and gravy and I want to slap it's maker for the cheese slices being there.
the gizzards are some of the internal organs and originated from slavery, where the masters gave their slaves the meat they didn't want and the slaves figured out how to cook them.
The chicken pot pie is the best!

That gravy was mostly meat with little to no white sauce. And it looks like the meat was shredded instead of ground. Weird.
I’ve been to England and let me tell you, I would never recommend anyone having the food. The breakfast is soooo wet. Everything oozes. The blood sausage, no no to all of it. The beans made me gag so much I couldn’t eat for a full day. They other stuff I tried was really bland. For some reason everything is wet and beige. The best way I can describe it is depression personified. Nothing has color and it’s all basically the same. Oh and the weird mashed peas with the fish and chips is atrocious. I was soooo happy when we finally flew to France cuz I was starving. Now their food is fantastic. If your thinking of going to England just spend a few hours between the layover. Can’t wait to go Italy 😊
I live in the south and squirrels are actually pretty decent a little gamey but ok
Beignets and zeppoles are the same. If that helps
i’m not gonna listen to brit’s who think beans on toast is peak food going off about biscuit gravy. first of all you guys have never had american biscuits, and sausage gravy is the best. to be fair that photo looks a bit weird but it’s amazing
Speaking from a southern person. I have no idea what that stuff she called biscuits and gravy.
They couldn't have shown a worse image of biscuits and gravy... That gravy looked nasty and wayyyy too chunky. No one eats it like that. The cheese with it made me laugh.
Ahh, yes… The British Palate and Cuisine. Conquer half the world’s spice trade and then use none of them.
Jolly did Southern food. When Josh saw the baked beans he said, “ these don’t look like the beans we have in England, they’re brown”. The chef they were with responded” That’s called flavor” 😂
You took the words right out of my mouth 😁
Harsh!... but funny. hehe
😂😂😂
This lol. They judge so many things so hard while eating beans out of a can on toast. 😂
I would put Biscuits and gravy up against any British breakfast. It's so good.
Absolutely.
I prefer bacon grease gravy over sausage gravy both are amazing
Nah that’s cap. I’m not British but I’d rather have a full English breakfast than gravy over biscuits. 😂😂😂
It's better. The Brits always think biscuits and gravy seem, or look nasty, but they have no idea just how delicious it really is. I have a local restaurant here in New Jersey, where the owner brought his southern recipe with him....my gosh....heaven on Earth.
@@04m6gto it’s not only Brits though who think this, a lot of people do. And to be fair the clips they showed for biscuits and gravy looked abysmal.
I like how disgusted Aidan gets just by the word "cornbread". 😂
If he ever had proper made southern cornbread with a bowl of chili, he might change his mind.
There are so many kinds of cornbread--sweet, not sweet, with onions, not with onions, white corn, yellow corn. It's hard to say you don't like it until you've tried them all.
I notice a lot of Brits seem to instantly dislike many foods, without even giving them a try! I always look at foods I've never had with some hope that I'd like it, and it's been rare that I've truly disliked a food- liver and onions, as well as oysters are my Kryptonite! If people go in assuming they're going to hate it, they probably will, so miss out on enjoying a great variety of amazing foods!
And don't forget green chile cornbread 😋
@@laydp2760 I like to use bacon fat and a bit of chili powder in mine. Really, cornbread has to be up there among the very top comfort foods!
I never liked cornbread cuz there is a specific flavor that tastes like a chemical to me. Either just the bread or corn dogs. But grits & sausage & gravy yum.
Biscuts and gravy is just ❤. The sausage to gravy ratio on that picute is horrible though
The photos are not a good representation of some of these dishes.
I would be more offended but, then I remember that your standard is British food! Things like kidney pie, beans on toast and blood sausage are regarded as creme in the UK food world. 😂
Cornbread is like a muffin? I wonder if she ate a jiffy mix version of cornbread. Because traditional cornbread isn't like a breakfast muffin.
They lived in the Houston area and here in Texas we often put sugar or even honey in our cornbread.
She was deliberately talking about the consistency
It's not really bread. It's not really a cake. The closest consistency she could describe was a muffin, that is very accurate
I'm from the deep south and I grew up eating cornbread Grandma made in a cast iron pan
@@christianoliver3572
Sugar on cornbread?
So everyone in your town is suffering from obesity?
Just some soft room temperature butter for me.
Cornbread is like a muffin tho. It's like cake batter made of corn
To be fair I don't think they really have anything comparable
That gravy is to thick. There’s sausage pieces in the gravy. I’ve never seen cheese In biscuits and gravy.
crumble the biscuits or sausage biscuit with gravy inside
I don’t do gizzards or ambrosia salad
Ya that cheese looked so off putting
@@plnkfloydian7814 ya I’m 50 and have had biscuits/gravy my whole life and have never seen anyone put cheese in it
@@mellycook you’ve missed out for 50 years that’s crazy
Them gagging at biscuits and gravy and cornbread hurts my head. I know they’ve probably never had it cooked right like mamaw used to but it’s so foreign to me. Absolutely delicious!
Comfort food is food you grew up with that you love and it makes you feel good when you eat it. It is that simple no need to over think it.
Brings back childhood memories.
Well said.👍
I was deciding whether or not to be offended, but then I realized you guys eat beans on toast..... I kid! Biscuits and gravy and grits are two of my favorites,My dad used to bring back fried chicken hearts for me when he came back from the deli, and my mom must have made Brunswick Stew at least 5 times a month when I was growing up.
Not to mention they eat blood pudding for breakfast...
White sausage gravy is a treasure...it is soooo good. Dumplings I grew up with were just the dumplings in a chicken broth with chopped chicken, no veggies. We also use ham instead of chicken sometimes. Served with cornbread. Grits, some like it others don't....but done and seasoned right with plenty of butter with fried eggs are great. Never ever liked boiled peanuts...but many love the spicy ones.
that is sos shown in the video
Have y'all ever seen British High schoolers try Biscuits and Gravy for the first time! by JOLLY?
As a Texan, that was a HORRIBLE example of biscuits and gravy
As a Californian, that was a HORRIBLE example of biscuits and gravy. lol.
As an Illinoisan that was a horrible example of biscuits and gravy.
The gravy in the picture isn't right. Fry crumbled breakfast sausage, after cooked throw in handful of flour, cup of milk and cup of water. Stir vigorously for less than a minute, turn off and remove from heat. Salt and pepper to taste, pour over rolls or flaky "biscuits" (not cookies). Gravy gets thick quickly so get your fire off fast.
Yes, very poor representation of white gravy!!!
There is a vlog called "JOLLIE" where two British guys feed biscuits and gravy to English school boys. You need to see the reaction after tasting on first seeing their reactions was like yours.
