There is a place here in town that looks like kind of a dive called the Muzzleloader Café that has a great chicken fried steak breakfast. There is so much food they give you two plates for the gut bomb.

Look for Steen's. If you can't find Steen's there should be something near the Karo and Molasses in the baking goods aisle.

Sorghum isn't much different from molasses, a little sweeter a little more sour, almost identical in appearance and consistency.

Sorghum is made from milo. It was used before the civil war as a sweetener. It's a lot like molasses, only a little more sour. It's used mainly as an ingredient in baking. I've used it in my BBQ bean recipe before, but I like black molasses better. They sell sorghum at lots of Missouri roadside general stores. I saw some a couple days ago at the Dutch Store on US 50 in Tipton, MO.

Chicken Fried steak? Stroud's in KC is excellent. Cracker Barrel best for a chain restaurant. Corner Cafe is good (Liberty and Independence) and also Englewood Cafe in Independence. Stroud's gravy is the best, by far.

Dagwood's down near Mission and Southwest Trafficway had a pretty mean chicken fried steak. I usually get the 1/2 order, and that's enough to fill you up....

Someone need to link this thread with the hangover thread. CFS is the perfect hangover food.

I've been missing out for a long time. I'm going to have to drive up next week for a meal. It's only 20 miles up the street from me. My wife has never been there. Wow. No wonder there's always a 2 hour wait. Winter time is a great time to go there though. No Branson tourists clogging the place up.

Here's the Buzz Inn version, but I recall the gray looking far better years ago.

Indeed it is.

mmmmm... gravy.

Same with greasy cheeseburgers. Scientifically they've shown the grease cuts the alcohol or something like that making you feel better. Combined with the endorphins released over eating something awesome and you're well on your way!

Damn, that does look like a tasty Hamburger steak!

Yeah years ago I would head over to Mickey D's and order a couple of quarter pounds with cheese to take the edge off, or if I wanted a true adventure I would head over to one of the local taco joints and load up on greasy tacos with extra hot sauce. :doh!:

I love sorghum or molasses on biscuits because honey is just a LITTLE too sweet for my tastes.

A pat of butter and a gloop of blackstrap on my grandma's biscuits is a favorite childhood memory.

A little pan fried Eckrich long sausage on the side.
