![Brits Try To Make [TACOS DE CHORIZO CON PAPAS] for the first time *& Fail*](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/om4lt9nl7b4/mqdefault.jpg)
Recently we went to the South in the US and had our eyes opened to a bunch of amazing new foods, but there was one thing that we really wanted to introduce to people back home!
So we got the help of a London-based cook from the South, and brought authentic Biscuits and Gravy to a British High School!
Great video
As a Texan, I appreciate the fact that no matter where you go, you choose to seek the authentic food experience that locals would offer. It is so rare when youtubers actually put in the effort to do the research and not just make assumptions. Love y'all so much, Jolly!
shout out to Santanna Hannah from Savannah
We do eat our biscuits with jam too. YOu can have a biscuit chicken sandwich wth jam/jelly for breakfast. It's not just biscuits and gravy. Additionally, ice tea with lemon and honey is a southern drink that is also nice.
Now thanks to Mrs.Savanah Hannnah and the folks at the Waffle House you know what the hype is about.
I am a Southern American. Some years ago I met a British man online who was horrified at the idea of putting gravy on biscuits when I mentioned it. I tried to explain what American biscuits and sausage gravy are but he was still skeptical. I promised to make it for him if we ever met in person, and long story short I eventually did just that. Now, we've been married for almost ten years. I'm sure he married me for the biscuits and gravy.
Bet it was more than that. You showed conviction, and prevailed against skepticism. Truth wins out. :)
Awesome. When an American can convince a skeptical Brit to try something that sounds so unappealing as sausage gravy (aka chopped up ferret) and biscuits and they find that it tastes better than it looks they can't do anything but ask you to marry them, LOL ! I'm not a Southerner but do like gravy and biscuits. Although, I prefer chicken fried chicken w/gravy or make my own version of SOS using white gravy and chicken on toast. Never cared for the taste of chipped beef (we had that growing up as kids). Too salty so I substituted leftover cooked chicken.
great comment!
This is a lovely story. Congrats! We Southerners know how to get in the kitchen and win hearts!
this is the sweetest thing I've ever read
As an American, hearing the kid say the biscuits and gravy are better than beans and toast and then everyone acting like that was a controversial statement had me rolling 😂😂😂😂
I've lived here in the UK for a few years, and let me tell you, these people are adorably obsessed with their beans on toast. It's actually what we would call "pork and beans" out of a can. And the grocery stores have a huge selection of canned beans for just that purpose. I have tried it, but I am sorry to say, I am NOT impressed.
@@cyberherbalist I wouldn’t be ether, I mean beans 🫘 on toast… TOAST!?
@Avery_JH if you've ever tried pork n beans on toast you have an idea.
@@cyberherbalist so bbq beans?
As an American, I can not wrap my mind around beans on toast. Sounds really bad.
Southerner here; when the kids were initially apprehensive I smiled and said “Just wait”. Awesome seeing these young men experience and enjoying great food from another culture for the first time.
as someone from NJ who spent a few years living in southeastern Louisiana, i had to learn that southern food cannot be judged on its appearance. a lot of nasty looking stuff tastes phenomenal down south
Lee Greer??
Down here in the south, we call it comfort food. It's a grandma making a meal for the whole family Sunday morning, and everybody gets thirds before she sits down to her plate because she's gonna make sure everybody's got food. Y'all bringing tears to my eyes with this.❤
I dropped my phone when they said they never drank ice tea. WTF
So true. My great grandma made Sunday dinner (lunch) every single week for my family until I was in my 20s and I'm not sure I ever saw her eat anything. She'd just sit there and smile while everyone else ate.
As a Texan, it warms my heart hearing British say my cultures food is "proper nice"
Ditto. As a lifelong Texan, I got a proper laugh. 😂
Wait until they get some country fried steak with white gravy!
Me too, as a Texan i think this is wholesome and quite cute 😂 i'm glad they liked it.
I think all kids should be taught to try new things now and then too. There's way too many picky eaters and so much good food in the world.. personally i love asian food the best.
same😭❤️
Imagine the money someone could make selling Southern comfort food in Britain?
As a Southerner, it warmed my heart to see these boys go from "Do I have to eat it all?" to, "Can I have some more?"
as in Oliver Twist!
That’s the typical response, especially at Maw-Maw’s house. She gonna make sure you get seconds, maybe even thirds. 😂
Shame they didn't offer the boys some chicken-fried steak with sausage gravy and scrambled eggs.
if they had an Arnold Palmer they would actually die
I was thinking they were gonna love it. There’s almost nothin better than homemade gravy and biscuits!!! My moms gravy was not like this but I prefer the white sausage gravy.
The confusion about the nomenclature for American biscuits comes from the dish’s history. Biscuits are a modernized version of hard tack, which people in the American frontier called “biscuits.” They called it that because (like an English biscuit and biscotti) hard tack is baked twice. American frontier people’s used this as a method to preserve it. One would typically make a large quantity of biscuits/hard tack and then soften it with a liquid or sauce when ready to eat. This method of preserving and preparing biscuits/hard tack is what developed into the dish Biscuits and Gravy.
Thank you for explaining the reasoning and history 😊
Thank you, i really liked your response. I love history, and if food is involved, it is twice as interesting.
Thank you for the history lesson, that was neat
Neato! 🤠 Thanks for the history friend!!!
Haha I’ve eaten hard tack cause a kid I grew up with his whole family did historical re enactments and they brought it to school
Watching them discover flavor was so wholesome.
😂
It’s cute seeing these Brit children tasting seasoning and flavor for the first time, really brings a tear to your eye.
Seasoning and flavor 😂😂😂
Makes you think the British invaded half the world to get spices and they don’t use them 😂
lots of them aren't British
@@stowlicters8362 they are all British
@@georginacook1850 He just means they can’t be British (a nationality) because theyre black! Don’t mind the casual racist :)
This is one of the rare times where a British channel does American food and it's not some wonky version of it that we don't even do over here...thank you for representing our "cuisine" properly...
I think they had help from the guy who did their Super Bowl party food, over at the pub
@@EK-rd2qi Brussel sprout sliders
They also took a trip through the south and had real southern food though too, they know the difference now.
@@EK-rd2qi I saw those videos, they probably just didnt realise but after their trip to america they seem to be more accurate on what we eat. Learn though experience i guess...
when was the last time you had sausage gravy and chicken? Then again I never heard of waffles and chicken until I was 30 so what do I know.
PARENTS & HEADMASTER, these young men are a marvelous reflection of their raising & education! SO WELL MANNERED!
JOLLY, I keep coming back to your vids for comfort & laughs. I'm from the South & seeing the high schoolers eyes open wide & hearing mmm ALWAYS plasters a big grin on my face! These young men have a special place in my heart. In today's tumultuous times, your videos are a brief sanctuary & I thank you for that. When you compare our comfort food to a warm hug it's like you're giving us a hug! You guys should be British Ambassadors to the US! Sending you the most loving, back thumping, Southern granny hug ever! God Bless.
You noticed that too, huh!!! If only American kids were 25% as civil as these young men are.
@@bl1429 We also need parents to discipline their kids... switch some legs or wash mouths out with soap!
@@bl1429 jolly good show mate guahahaha
What kinda aristocrat crap did i just read
@@theenderdestruction2362 A Southern. Granny sending them a hug I suppose.
These kids are so polite and have manners and respect...refreshing!!!! 👍
Their Brits they were born with manners built in
"Let's call it interesting for now" such a polite way to say "this looks disgusting" 🤣🤣🤣
They're british
British people are so chill with their choice of words, even when their minds are freaking out over how nice the food are, they'll just say "That's quite nice" or just "Oh lovely"
😂
@@lilypads3033 I know right? And the fact that when they are in trouble they say stuff like "I'm in a bit of a pickle"... I loooove that, so polite.
Tactful understatement is a British cultural tradition.
Boss: Why are you so tired this morning?
Me: I was up until 1am watching British schoolboys eat biscuits.
how does this only have 20 likes😂
2am currently
Literally 1 am while I’m watching this.
Stop that was me last night😭😭😭
I don’t know why, but that sounds a little bit dirty. Lol “watching British schoolboys, eating biscuits” 🤣🤣🤣
As an American who hears our food trashed on by other Americans and some people from out of the country so often (and agreeing with the vast majority of the negative comments) it was very heartwarming to see people from across the world loving something so simple and common here. Thank you for the video God bless
Dude it's amazing how foreigners in the comments want SO badly for someone to mention that it's not American 😂
I don't care which ethnic group influenced it, it was born in USA and that's why I love it ❤
5:26 lil bro saying it makes him happy 🥹🤌 you love to see it
When the kid said it made him happy he captured the meaning of “soul food”.
💙
Exactly! They don't call it soul food for nothing.
This was so sweet to watch.
OMG, I totally loved that!!!! And a funny thing, my biscuits and gravy were mentioned in my daughter's maid if honor speech at her wedding!!! It definitely is something that just makes you happy!!!

💯💯👌🏻
I love that for years, Josh and Ollie have been mocking the concept of ‘biscuits and gravy’ in random videos. They try it, and liked it so much that now they are trying to convert others 😂
To be fair, those kind of gravy isn't really common outside of the US. I can somewhat understand why it looks a bit off compared with what we usually think of a gravy's appearance.
as soon as i saw Biscuits and gravy in the title, i never clicked so fast lol
@@Josua070 Your absolutely right the reason it received such a negative reaction in hearing about it is because they were basically imagining cookies with brown gravy. Then to pile on that white/country gravy doesn't exist there whatsoever gives little cause as to why a mysterious lumpy white liquid is actually good. Not to mention while most comparable to a scone an American biscuit is still very different from them, meaning if they had ever tried a white gravy on a scone it would have been an entirely different experience.
@@Josua070 That sausage gravy is actually a bechamel sauce, which is one of the mother sauces from France. It's called "gravy" because instead of using traditional butter, meat drippings are used.
Josh and Ollie are single-handedly going to change the UK foodscape. Soul food is about to have a renaissance on the other side of the Atlantic
"The presentation is not to the English standards"
LITERALLY ladles baked beans on toast.
Glad we could be of service to our brothers from across the pond 🫡🇺🇸
“bring your fake scones and sausage gravy to England”. 😂😂😂 these kids are adorable
This video has to be my favorite one of Brits trying American food 😂
I think if these kids came to the US they'd lose their minds lol
@@e-money5085Their second channel has them go to america and japan
@@e-money5085and gain 20 lbs
@@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus can you pass the gravy when you’re done saying grace
To be fair to the young man who wanted some jam, there are a lot of people who prefer to eat their breakfast biscuits with butter and something sweet like jam, jelly, or honey. I’ve found that biscuits are basically great no matter what I’ve put on them.
I prefer my biscuits with butter and a good jam, but I think perhaps the Southern part of the US prefers the gravy. I never took the gravy on biscuits..lol
I’ve had scones before but never an American biscuit is it sweeter or something?
@@paanne1013 I'm from the Southern US, and I'll eat my biscuits both ways, with gravy or with butter and jam.
@@gkygrl7 often both at once! I'll get an order of biscuits and gravy and then keep one biscuit on the side to have with butter and strawberry jam.
In the South we eat them either way. 🤠
That first set of kids to take a bite, I love how the one on the left is talking and smiling and nodding and the one on the right is just *angels singing* staring into the glorious void of artery clogging sausage gravy
I’m from the south - Mississippi. This whole meal is a staple. I was laughing with delight at how much these kids loved it all.
Seeing Brits eat food with flavor always brings a tear to my eye
When I went to the USA, I was shocked by the flavour explosion lol. I didn't like it at first, everything was too sweet. Even the bacon and ham. Then when I came home, everything here was bland, ha ha.
what the heck? weird thing to say.
@@alegriart not really beans n toast ass
@@goblinbabe🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
As an American Southerner I really appreciate these young men and their great manners. By the way, we usually split the biscuit open, into two halves then add the gravy.
Thank you, I was going to comment that too....newbies as they are, they still did a great job, just need some experience 😁
Im from the north, and i eat B&G all the time
We always break up the biscuits into bites and pour gravy over it.
@@CheerfulNihilism That is exactly how we do it in West Virginia.
@@kathydaniel6000 I am from W. Va. also!
I'm probably late, but anyone would love to cook for these boys! So polite and appreciative. It would feel good to cook something nice for them if I had the chance. Their parents raised them well.
I keep coming back to this one! I love how humble the students are and how easily they change their minds. And, of course, you are excellent hosts. Just a perfect video!
Love the kid who said “Let’s call it interesting for now..I’m not gonna make a judgment” with that mentality he’s gonna go far and experience so many different things!
_"For SCIENCE!"_
@@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesusdon’t tell us what to do
Calm down
They had their first bites of soul food and you literally saw their souls smile through the video. That’s what soul/southern food is all about my babies!
So true! The power of food made with love 🤗
True, but sausage gravy made right is ethereal but made badly can be pretty awful and from past videos by these 2 I'm left to wonder what that gravy really tastes like. Is it a proper example of its kind?
The pinned comment says they found an American chef in London to make it. Probably pretty decent.
@@prisonerofthehighway1059 Yes, I know and I think I've seen a video where somebody (maybe Josh and Ollie) ate at that guy's restaurant so yes, PROBABLY pretty good. But something about that video I saw, if it's the same guy, just gave me a feeling there were compromises due to being in a place where real American ingredients might not be available (can you say hot dogs in jars?).
@BTinSF biscuits are just flour, butter, and dairy. The sausage is just pork and spices/herbs. Both can be done at a high level pretty much anywhere in the world.
This warmed the cockles of my heart. My husband, an expat from Scotland, does not like biscuits and gravy or iced tea, both of which I adore. It makes me happy that some folks in the UK like our American food.
These precious young people are so adorable. I love their accent and words!
"it actually makes me happy how good it is" you sir, have just defined soul food 😂
Right😂
Perfect definition
Right?? Like same as comfort food
Precisely 🎉
Such facts
That one boy asking permission before he could have more, god bless his polite heart.
Yes
“Oh my days” how cute! 🥰
This is so funny I have made all of these things at home. I literally made a pitcher of sweet tea this morning for the day. I can get all of these things from at least 120 places in my county. Read county Not country. It’s wild that this can be foreign to someone. I thought this was a “boring” day to day thing. It’s amazing to see their reactions!! 🥰
Australian here. My old man has done a lot of business in America and he always tells me the same thing every time we have a BBQ "no one does BBQ like southern USA. They don't cook sausages and their BBQs. They cook 9 course meals with salads, sides, starters, entrees, mains and desserts all on the BBQ"
And we got the stomachs to show for it! 😅
It's so true. We will BBQ and deep fry anything. I love it.
That's not just the south anymore. Just about every decent cook has a smoker and with a little help from RUclips, we've become pretty good at smoking meat
I moved from the South to the Pacific Northwest. Overall, I like it much better here... but damn do I miss the BBQ. I have yet to find a place in my area that even comes close to what they have in the South.
@@MrClickity, not sure where in the PNW you are, but there's Dickey's BBQ Pit in Tacoma. When I lived in Seattle over 20 years ago, my roommate and I drove to Tacoma specifically for BBQ and I believe we went to Dickey's. They had the best fried okra; super crisp, not slimy, just perfect.
I agree you can't beat the BBQ places in the South, but at least there are some decent substitutes for when you get a hankerin'. 😉
It’s so heartwarming to see them eat something so simple. a meal I’d grab before school at the fanny lefays biscuits bright and early in the morning! a friend chicken sandwich with extra gravy 🥹
I worked with a lot of Brits in Japan and shocked one girl when I said she was spunky.
She then asked what I meant by spunky. I meant full of spirit, gumption, feisty.
Ooooh, I’m an American living in the U.K. In the UK spunk is slang for something really rude and sexual so I’m glad she asked what you meant before she got offended 😂
@@za4109Exactly
Biscuits and jam is TOTALLY a thing in America, too. Also, we make them into "breakfast sandwiches" with stuff like bacon, eggs, and cheese.
Yes, sooooo good
Not to mention biscuits with honey
The cheese would set them off.
Yes! I like mine with honey or molasses too, and lots of butter.
Lol we’re so fat and I love it😂❤
I love how polite and open minded these young men are.
And their grasp on the English language. Not littered with "You Knows", and likes.
@@stevenM8282 "literally"
I was thinking the same thing.
I've watched this video so many times, that now "quite nice", "that's just lovely" and "oh my days!" are part of my daily conversations 😋
So happy to hear those kids tried and liked different foods. It's always good to try something new.
Look at that precious child soppin up that gravy like a real Southern-raised baby. I'm so proud.
I grinned so wide at that! The REAL purpose of biscuits y'all! I was really really hoping they would drop the bomb for these boys that biscuits & gravy with scrambled eggs is a popular breakfast food lmao
@@CherryGryffon Well, aren't you sweet. You sure made me smile too. I didn't think they served the gravy very pretty, did you? I use a big spoon. Now, I'm not an egg eater but I'll cook you up some mean eggs any way you like em.
Yup, Buttermilk Biscuits are for soppin'. That is why biscuits (or toast) is served with eggs, to sop up the yokes. Eggs cooked "side up" are the best, lots of runny warm yokes.
@@paulromsky9527 Do you prefer biscuits or toast with gravy? Yes, I cook side up eggs in bacon grease. Creamed beef I prefer it with no bread. Just plain. But biscuits with my gravy and some hashbrowns.
I know right! They thought it looks gross but when it hit the taste buds they loved it!
Never ceases to amaze me how well mannered some kids can be always nice to see.
It’s a nice reminder that humans are usually decent at their core. Becoming an adult just f*cks it all up for so many😅
Yeah. One was even like "It doesnt *look* very tasty, but I'll still try it anyway"
“May i have some more”
Y'all why? Because they are not american
That was the 1st thing I noticed. How proper they are. Love it!
with everything going on in the world now, I love these videos. all the different people, all the different cultures...we all come together with food. it's beautiful❤
I grew up on tea and biscuits, but we didn't have chicken with the biscuits & gravy (we didn't always have the money for a protein). I really enjoyed watching these boys' reactions and thoughts on these items. Thank you for sharing!
It's amazing how blown away they are by such simple southern classics like biscuits and gravy, fried chicken and iced tea lol
I lived in England and I think the biggest difference is that they don’t cook with much flavor. Absolutely minimal spices, not a ton of fat (for flavor). In general, it’s fairly bland. So when they eat our food I think it’s a flavor punch in the tastebuds!
I would love to see them try chicken and waffles.
@@samuelwilson6868 or some fajita and al pastor tacos
@@MelodyRK There’s a reason why the Brits flee to places like Spain in the summer. They’re desperate for flavor.
@@MelodyRK I remember meeting an Englishman who jokingly said “Why did the British empire get so big? To get away from British cooking!”
That Theo kid is an American at heart! He loves this stuff more than his own culture's food! As a Texan, this whole episode had me smiling seeing them enjoy that.
My husband's family is from WI, while I'm born and bred in the south 😂 and we have to remind his extended family when they come that they should get "half and half" tea when we go eat 😂.
It's not hard to beat beans on toast, or 17 cups of teas a day.

Don't understand how watching their face light up and those big grins brings me so much joy. Well done.
Same 😄👍🏼
Take them to Bojangles and they'd never leave...
They’re just so pure 💕 There’s nothing like making beautiful children experience innocent joy. Made my face light up as well lol
As an American from Georgia, it’s nice to hear them enjoy a nice cold sweet tea, and not complain about it being too sweet😂

Yes I've heard Brits says sweet tea is too sweet before.
Many Americans also think it’s too sweet.

I can't drink sweet or flavored tea, only unsweetened black tea (or oolong, sometimes green tea is okay). I have a sweet tooth, but tea is not something I enjoy sweetened.
I’m Texan and I hate sweet tea. I’m in the minority, obviously, but I don’t like it at all.

@@mojojojo6400 Your comment became so hard so hard to read...
I am from North Carolina in the south east united states and we pretty much invented sweet tea, fried chicken, biscuits and gravy. Pretty much fried everything... So awesome to hear you gents like our southern foods.. FYI its best to open the biscuit in half and then pour the gravy over top of the open part, soaks in much nicer and better flavor. Cheers..
I found this video on accident and I’m so glad. It’s so cute and fun! I loved watching them try new things and seeing the differences between countries. I got a little educated on some things as well. Good job on the video! Would love to see them try more things! And maybe see some American kids try food from there too! 👍🏼🙂
The biscuits, sausage gravy, and chicken all look perfectly prepared. How are these kids supposed to go back to beans and toast? Also, hats off to Mr. Smith for allowing this demonstration in his school. He should be proud of his well mannered students.
Right!? just horrifies me to think how my Indian bros survive in America 😂
I certainly wouldn't go back to beans and toast! And I never tried beans and toast!
I tried it out of curiosity due to this channel. It was merely edible food. Cheddar cheese helped it. @@melissacooper8724

The biscuits are over cooked.

As a southern woman, I’m SOOOOO proud of them! Biscuits and gravy is heaven on a plate.
Most certainly is. 🥹
Dear god no not at all
As western man I've never had it. (As in not just biscuits and gravy specifically or exclusively.)
@Cavalio Thorson you should try it. It's a great combination.
It’s like a warm hug!
I love how well spoken and respectful these kids are.
Imagine a country that actually takes care of its people and their health and education 😊 dogshit America tbh
I was thinking the exact thing! And they all had a nice sense of humor too. I lost it when the one kid said it looked “like a chopped up ferret”
Not the nonBritish ones, hardly could speak
It's merely their accents, which are pretty much the same. This says they're from the same SES and geographic region. Most children the world over are respectful: They're merely communicating with different accents and body language. These adolescents are absolutely adorable! I'd love to see the RUclipsrs do the same thing with other cultures, or with kids from the USA eating British food. Or ... how about we serve EVERYONE Vegemite! VEGEMITE ON THE HOUSE! Let's see everyone's reactions. That's always a good one! 🤣🤣🤣

💯
I’ve said it before on here, my relatives here in Mississippi and in Texas eat these food’s daily and live between 75-104 years old. 😂
Of course a lot of that is home grown food. Might as well be happy and eat good food.
That’s a pretty wide range you got there

@@hobgoblin6551 Don't add too much water! They're better when they're thicker in consistency, and with a decent helping of butter. I personally like them with a little bit of sugar or maple syrup, but that's just cause I usually ate them as a breakfast food as a kid. They're really hard to mess up - most online recipes have got the right idea - and it all really comes down to personal taste. I call what I mentioned above 'sweet grits', cause you're only eating them with some sweetner involved. If you're wanting to pair it with something, though, like fish or chicken, I'd recommend looking up cheese grits recipes!
@@hobgoblin6551
I would search RUclips videos unless you can have someone hands on show you. There not easy to make. Best bet is to start with instant grits.

I'm pretty sure those are Pillsbury and not real biscuits. Imagine if they tried some real biscuits.
@@careyfreeman5056 if they bite the biscuit and don’t immediately freeze and start crying, it’s not done right. Lol

3:13 it’s called country gravy my friends
As a Southern American (Georgia), I’m so delighted by this.
"It actually makes me happy, how good it is" Thats why we call southern food comfort food baby! 😂
Exactly.
As a Texan, there is very few things better in life than a perfect warm buttery biscuit, dunked in sausage gravy. Dead serious.
Truth
what? its called cream gravy. never heard of `sausage gravy`
@@leechild4655 apparently it's a regional thing. There's a whole convo about it in another comment.
Truth.
@@leechild4655Cream gravy is just gravy. Sausage gravy is cream gravy with sausage in it. Idk how you’ve not seen sausage gravy on menus at restaurants because that’s where I usually see it. It’s normally served at breakfast where as regular cream gravy is served with chicken fried steaks.
As a southern American, biscuit gravy has never looked appetizing to anyone, but it’s so dang good.
This was so wholesome 😊 enjoyed watching this.
When the kid said “can I have a bit more” it melted my heart 💕
Yes ❤
Right??
I recently learned British kids are more polite than Americans lol
Every one of those boys is a credit to their parents, lovely polite and happy kids especially the one that said it made him happy, he made me happy!!
they are British... well behaved, with manners!
Same
@@pasionariaarguello4245 That's not always the case though, just because they're British. As a British person, I can tell you first hand, these kids were raised well, lol!
That's real thanksgiving........making him happy.
i wish we had parents like that here in usa.. kids here would mug you and take your chicken ..
This made me so happy to watch!❤
Im a 31yo American and this is the first Im hearing of beans & toast. It took a second for my brain to process but that actually sounds like a good breakfast
Seeing the kid smile just from eating it, that’s why it’s called comfort food
As a full blooded American southerner at heart, it warmed my soul seeing how happy it made some of these kids. 🥹
As an American in the South I can say that I appreciate the well-mannered, kind words of the boys.
Yeah you'll barely find that here in the states lol
I live in the South too (Louisiana), and I love biscuits and sausage gravy. My father-in-law loves coming down for a visit, because he makes sure to get his biscuits and sausage gravy. Their manners about how good it is (these boys) is refreshing
2:25 😂
As an American, I can say that obnoxious behavior is present accepted ages in all countries. For example, people here making collective statements about all American teenagers.
There's also plenty of idiocy running rampant, such as these same people being somehow baffled that people they've already decided are horrible not being respectful to them.
@@zydration3538 I gave a compliment to the young men. relax.
It's so fun to watch Brits try actual food. ❤
What a sweet video. Thank you! I was taught how to make gravy and homemade biscuits from my Mom and I am good at it. I also like making shrimp and grits. Oh boy! Yummy.
"let's call it interesting, I'm not going to make judgment" that kid is going to go far in life
Prepping for the foreign service
@@BTinSF he'd still do a better job than Patel.
in Japan when they don't like food they say it's interesting rather than insult it and thus the cook etc
@@CorvusCorone68 I like that and I'll do that from now on
My compliments to these kids for keeping open minds and jumping right in.
It looks horrible
5 seconds later
This is amazing
Not sure American kids would be as open-minded. Kudos.
@@charlesmartin1121 they are
@@cococaramelash Good.
@@charlesmartin1121 not sure why you would assume that.
Speaking as an adult from Texas.... it was a real pleasure watching these young men taste Biscuits and Gravy for the first time.... well done!
Typically southern "gravy" is just flour and pepper in water, really bland and almost flavorless. Go up to the upper midwest and enjoy sausage gravy made with well seasoned Italian or polish sausage. Northern Sausage and gravy is fantastic, southern is generally a disappointment.
@@Steve-tl7zo I grew up in the Swamp of Florida, and I cannot tell you of any occasion in which our "gravy" didnt have pepper, sausage, and other things in with it. There is of course, White Gravy, which is what you described, but there is also "country gravy" (which is the traditional way of serving biscuits and gravy.)
Texas here and our gravy has flavor. Not just flour pepper and water like dude described. He just doesn't know 😂
@@Steve-tl7zoYou must have visited one very bad Southern-branded eatery... Not to worry, though, for anyplace down south serving something that bland won't last long.
@@poliscikosis3187got to make it a roux, get that little bit of color from the sausage fat in there.
😂 Im from the the south here in America. We enjoy good southern cook'en.
Life is so sweet with our cold ice sweet tea😁 Wouldn't have it any other way.
I love these videos. I already watched this too. So good
these boys would transcend if they tried authentic proper southern food omg 😭😭😭
Facts, they wouldn't be able to process that much flavor. 😭😂
Exactly. That was a crappy warmed up version. True fried chicken with sides....they aren't ready.
I wanna see Americans trying other nations food, when I think of good food I don’t think of British. I was born in Switzerland and have always said that not one food comes to mind as being delicious (ok fondue) but you can’t beat Swiss pastries.
@walteradams494 if you read it said it was cooked by a cook from the south, that now is in London. So it wasn't a crappy heated up version lol.
they would immediately go into shock
As a southern American, I can say that the kid that said "your food is weird and nice" encompassed the southern food scene perfectly with that statement. Southern food is weird, but it is very nice! These videos are so fun to watch!
It was really cute, lol. I mant to see them try a Midwestern food. We have Wild Rice Hot Dish up here, and it’s one of those foods that can compete with New England Clam Chowder, Southern Jambalaya, and all the other great American regional foodstuffs.
It’d be hilarious to see these kids eat Jambalaya, though, too. They’d probably experience every emotion known to humanity lol
Some might say British food is weird too. Then again, I bet to Japanese highschoolers would find chicken quesadilla weird.
@@GladDestrongeryum, chicken quesadilla!
@@GladDestronger Don't have to go very far to find people who think British food is *AT LEAST* weird, if not straight up disgusting.
I'm french btw.
Escargot... say no more. I'm not a fan of mollusk-based shellfish. But French crepes are delicious.
😂😂 please feed those wonderful boys...their reactions were PRICELESS ❤
Yo love this content 😂❤ keep it up!
I notice their mood went from stiff and polite (with strong hints of skepticism) to upbeat and happy as the episode went on and the more American food they ate.
That happens when you eat a lot of sugar 😁
@@s_adalheid Yep. That's what we do in America. We eat sugar. And we like ittttttttt. So we're going to keep doing itttttttttt.
@@nothingtoseehear5012 😂😂 I'm glad for you guys
@@s_adalheid omg no take away his sugar he's had enough
@@s_adalheidI disagree sugar can lead to you often feeling th opposite
I come from a Mexican family so most my life all I had was Mexican food. A few years ago while staying at one of my white friends house, her mom made biscuits and gravy for breakfast. I have never been the same since. It’s the perfect meal for a Sunday morning, it put me right down for a nap and was so delicious.
I fed B&G to an asian friend and he kept visiting every week and asking for it again lol
It will give you the itis
@@Tailstraw_xD I bet! It's one of those dishes that just gives you that at-home comfort feeling. I hope you still make him his B&G 😄
@@dustinraymond3938 what is the itis?
@@mikii5939 it's when you eat something really good that makes you sleepy and a bit bloated feeling
Southern Sweet tea also is known as “southern wine”. But I have been to London. There you will eat the BEST fish and chips.
