I am looking for an old fashioned recipe for biscuits. I want something that I can roll out and cut that will make the super tall biscuits for biscuits and gravy. I make the best sausage and bacon white gravy but I hate wasting it on can biscuits. It is one of my family’s favorites. I lucked out and the cook at our local greasy spoon gave it to me before everyone from Kalifornia moved to our sleepy little town. After I moved away someone bought the diner, closed it and opened something else (makes me sad every time I go home).
Jacksonville, Oregon Jubilee Club restraunt Sausage & Bacon gravy.
1 pound bacon
1 pound sausage (I use Jimmy Dean sage flavor)
flour
milk (you can use half and half but I prefer 2%)
cracked black pepper
Cut up bacon into bite sized pieces and fry until crisp remove from grease and put aside.
Cook the sausage in the bacon grease until done. I try to break it up into small pieces.
Add 4-5 heaping large silverware spoons of flour to sausage and bacon drippings. Blend until all flour is incorporated into the fat.
Start adding milk. I usually add about 1 cup at a time, over medium heat until I get the right consistency.
Once you get it to your desired consistency add the bacon back into the gravy and let simmer for 30 minutes.
Sorry there are no flour/milk amounts but that is how the cook taught me. This is the best gravy you will ever put over biscuits, scrambled eggs, chicken fried steak etc.
That sounds great!
I usually just do chicken in cream sauce over toast,etc. but that sounds delicious
You are Evil!(In a Good Way:)
