****Official Biscuits and Gravy Thread****
 

Guys I need a good biscuits and gravy recipe for this weekend. One that's simply amazing. Some stories about the best restaurant purchased as well. What was the best b and g you have ever eaten? Also are you more of a fan of the top or bottom of the biscuit? Any and every thing about this topic shall be in this thread.

Biscuits and gravy are an art form. Not sure a recipe will help.

What is the best you have ever eaten FMB? I am sure you have a recipe to share.

Powdered gravy makes me want to punch kittens. FIL does that with Thanksgiving turkey and it blows my mind. He goes all out on Thanksgiving, scratch made everything and all fixings. Then... Powdered gravy.

I makes a mean sawmill gravy, but I've never really learned to make biscuits. I'm sad now.

Best I've had... Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the place, but it was this little cafe in Memphis. The gravy was just better than average, but the biscuits were other-worldly.

I can't really say about top or bottom. I guess I'm versatile. There are things I really prefer about each one. Tops are buttery and tender and flaky and yummy. Bottoms have a good crush and a bit of crunch, while also being tender and flaky.

As long as it's not a soggy biscuit, I'm good with whatever.

Hmmm. Well I am slightly surprised you don't make them. I am definitely a top of the biscuit kind of guy.

Powdered is ok, but you have to use the biscuit gravy mix and add in fresh sausage and pepper to season. A straight sausage gravy packet is blasphemy!

If you're gonna make biscuits from scratch, go all in and use lard.

What gets lost in the gravy and biscuit fuss is the sausage. It's imperative to use a quality sausage. I'd recommend Mendolia's around the KC area.

No. No, no, noppity, nope.

Powdered gravy is an abomination. Don't make me put you on ignore.

Biscuits are pure baking, and generally I can't stand baking. I am getting into making bread, so I may try my hand at biscuits sometime.

Biscuits are a LOT easier than bread. Yeast is a fickle bitch.

Nah. Treat it right and it's easy. It gets a bad rep by people that treat it poorly.

Admittedly, it was the first/only time I've had chicken fried bacon so that may have unfairly influenced my taste buds.
