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

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.
