If you could choose one meal that you had to eat every day what would it be?
probably tacos...lots of options. Beef taco, chicken taco, fish...soft shell, hard shell...hard to get sick of them
Fried chicken and waffles.
@thomasphillips4906 I came to say tacos too 👍
Tacos. Ground Beef tacos, Chicken Tinga tacos, Grilled Mahi tacos, Fried Cod tacos, Carnitas tacos, Chorizo tacos, Carne Asada tacos, Chilorio tacos, Cochinita tacos, Barbacoa tacos, Birria tacos, Tacos al Pastor, Cabeza tacos, Arabes tacos, Campeche tacos, Cecina de Yecapixtla tacos, Chicharron tacos, Tripa tacos, Lengua tacos, Suadero tacos, Poc Chuc tacos.... you know... tacos.
My homemade Egg McMuffin. Better than MCD's because it's fresh. So easy to make-I can make 'em in two minutes. I
Proud Texan here. You have to understand everyone has their own take on country gravy. Different families have different recipes, and most are winners.
Absolutely! I'm from South Dakota, a farm girl, and grew up with gravy on the table at least every day, lol. Sometimes in every meal of the day. I'm glad you referred to it as country gravy, as that is my term as well, but with that I'm referring to gravies made with milk. So you can have chicken gravy made with drippings and broth, or country chicken gravy, which is made with milk instead of broth. We had milk cows and always an abundance of milk, so it was often the liquid used for gravies. My favorite was my mom's country chicken gravy. I try to duplicate it, but it's never as good as Mom's.......but neither is my fried chicken, LOL. For one thing, I remember Mom's gravy had a lot more grease in it and she was likely cooking with lard. Healthier isn't necessarily tastier. LOL.
Exactly. I'm from North Carolina we make this once a week. I order this when I travel to other states. Always fire!
@@msdarby515, the same goes for fried chicken. On country gravy, I've had all 3, milk, water, and chicken broth.
For sure, iowa here, more sausage in ours than most
Howdy Y'all !!! These kids need chicken fried steak and some FRESH fried catfish
We have gravy for everything. Pork, beef, chicken, turkey, white with sausage and peppered white. With our biscuits you can put many things on them such as, cream and jam, butter and honey or gravy. They can be sweet or savory, anything you want.
Don't forget syrup
In my early ( poor waitress days)20s I had a roommate from Vicksburg ( Texas girl here) that introduced me to tomato gravy and we lived on that with biscuits and Kool aid for about 2 years!😂
White sausage gravy, with lots of black pepper over fresh biscuits is a beautiful thing...greetings from the deep south!
Biscuits and Sausage Gravy, an Southern staple of a meal. Love it
I feel like the best way to describe an American Biscuit is that it looks like a Scone, but it's taste or texture is more like a Croissant.
I've referred to it before as being like if a croissant was fluffy instead of flakey.
I was never raised eating sausage gravy and biscuits at home. However, when I went into the military they served their version called SOS or "*!@# on a Shingle". I was hooked and now I make it for myself all of the time
Also known as chipped beef on toast. 😉
We have brown gravy. Beef gravy. Turkey gravy. Chicken gravy. Pork gravy. Sausage gravy is what they're having and it is sooo good!!!
We have loads of different kinds of gravies in the UK, too, just not THAT kind.
Biscuits and gravy is one of the best dishes. Also, with the fried chicken. Yum! Excellent for you that you reached 10K!
I'm enjoying seeing British drinking ice-cold tea. And liking it! 😊
There’s a slightly earlier video where josh and Ollie tried biscuits and gravy for the first time, in the US.
I still can’t get over that in this one Josh sounds shocked at splitting a biscuit in half and that they didn’t open them up to put the gravy on them. Biscuits 101.
Yeah, they went to Maple Street Biscuit Company. Definitely try their biscuits and gravy; reminds me of summers at my grandma's.
Adding a comment so you can understand what sausage gravy is. It's a milk roux mixed with cooked loose, fennel based sausage, that's why it's white. Think a bechamel sauce with browned bits of sausage mixed in with salt and pepper. And the biscuits aren't sweet, they are savory. They have plenty of salt and butter and buttermilk. It's just an all around amazing dish.
The most next-level breakfast I ever had was at a diner in St. Louis: a bed of hash browns, topped with two sausage patties, topped with two friend eggs, smothered in sausage gravy, with a few dashes of hot sauce. I could eat that every day, though my heart wouldn’t care for it
My family actually doesn't eat sausage gravy with fried chicken. We make the gravy out of the grease drippings left in the pan after frying the chicken. Gravy made from sausage or bacon grease is served at breakfast. Gravy made with the drippings from fried chicken or chicken fried steak goes with those dishes, poured over mashed potatoes and served with peas it's amazing!
Excuse me... speak for yoursel. I was born and raised in Colorado and we eat the white sausage gravy on our chicken fried steak or country fried chicken I have no idea what you're talking about we eat at the other way as well but it's not just that way
@@RE-bg9ds that's fine. You do you! Blessings!
As a Texan who spent almost a year in England, the food was okay to me but I prefer my Southern Cooking even more. There were things I did miss but could go to the nearest base and could get it at times.
I literally just finished eating biscuits and gravy for lunch. I also had a sweet tea with it😂
You know what else goes great with that peppery white country gravy? French fries. I love dipping fries in it.
Another thing is called the haystack. It’s a big breakfast. You’ve got your choice of hamburger buns or toast on the bottom, slap on either hamburgers or breakfast sausage patties, cover them with a hearty helping of crispy shredded fried potatoes, slap on a couple eggs on top of that pile (I like mine sunny side up) and then cover the whole thing in sausage gravy. Oh so good.
Buttermilk biscuits with real butter!! The best
Southern Sweet Tea is almost exclusively made by the gallon pitcher, not by the glass! Anyone can make it ! ** You need three cups of water, two FAMILY SIZE tea bags, pinch or two of baking soda, and sugar (1 - 2 cups per gallon of tea, depending on your sweet tooth) == Put water on to boil and add your baking soda -- this takes out the tannins and reduces the "bite" tea can have when it gets cold. Once it's boiling, add the tea bags, turn off the burner, and steep for half an hour. Right before you pour the steeped tea into a gallon pitcher, fill the pitcher half way with warm to hot water and your sugar. Stir thoroughly until sugar disappears. Pour in your steeped tea, and finish filling the pitcher with water if it is not yet full. Stir again. Put in the fridge to cool down completely. Some people drink it with lemon slices, some don't ..... and we always add ice. :D
I love that people are interested in trying biscuits n’ gravy but we have biscuits with lots of different accoutrements like butter, jam, marmalade, honey, etc. You can even bake toppings into them like blueberries and turn it into a dessert style biscuit. They are versatile and if the right cook/ baker is making it quiet flavorful and delicious with every meal.
A lot of the foods we eat here were discovered during the depression era (1929-1939) when people had to take what they could get their hands on and be creative to survive. Grandparents would create recipes of their concoctions and pass it to the next generations.
5:18 _"Do we have to eat all of it?"_
oh, how his opinion changes as he eats!!!
@7:45 when you seemed surprised by jam on it. That is actually very common. biscuits with sausage or chicken patties topped with some jam or jelly is a school breakfast staple.
That serving of mushy peas looked like a very thick split-pea soup, which is often made very thick. Split pea soup with ham can be a phenomenally comforting food, particularly during nasty cold wet weather.
I would refuse to enter the culinary hell of being restricted to the same meal every day.
That gravy is also the topping for chicken-fried steak.
And fried pork fridders !
In America, ice tea is not sweet, southern tea they are drinking is distinguished by calling it sweet tea, which is a southern drink.
Those biscuits are gorgeous!
I'm having a sweet tea right now. It's 90+ degrees here.
My dad used to get a gallon jar, fill it full of water, add 6 teabags with the tags hanging out, and add the lid to secure the tea bags, then stick it out in the sun while he was at work. when he came home, he had freshly brewed iced tea
thats called "sun tea". im sure he had the little glass of plastic jug with a tap on it to make it in. it tastes better to me than just adding hot water to tea bags.
@@joshjones718 i know it was called sun tea, but i have found saying that, most non sun tea people dont understand
Watch Patrol Gaming in Australia's reaction to making Biscuits and Sausage gravy. Friggin hilarious.
As an alternative gravy , I highly recommend Creamed Chipped Beef gravy - which is normally served on plain or toasted bread , BUT can also be served in place of Sausage Gravy on a Biscuit
. It is also called SOS - S*** On a Shingle .
I call it white gravy. It’s only sausage gravy if there’s sausage lol
It's so strange that the British are confused by sausage gravy. It's practically béchamel (the mother of all sauces) with sausage lol.
It's like if they only had vanilla ice cream and think that ice cream can ONLY be vanilla!
to be fair, sausage gravy is usually made with turkey or bacon fat and their "bacon" is more like ham so im not sure they are used to using those fats in food.
Sausage gravy is usually made with the fat from cooking the sausage.
It's strange to me that Americans think there's only one kind of bacon.
@@joshjones718 We have more than one kind of bacon. Best back bacon is for breafast and bacon sandwiches, streaky bacon (the only kind Americans think is bacon) is used for wrapping fowl during roasting, crumbling up on salads, putting in burgers, and suchlike.
Southerner here and it is a staple for breakfast. I would watch my grandma make the biscuits and when i was old enough she taught me how to make them to perfection. We do eat it mainly for breakfast but when i was in my 20s and would leave the bar after a night of drinks i would head to any place serving breakfast all day and order biscuits and gravy and it was the perfect thing to ward off a hangover.
Biscuits and gravy along w/ cheesy grits or grits w/ an easy over egg on top are a few of my favorite breakfast foods. Chilaquiles are my all time favorite breakfast food (spicy smothered chips w/ red or green salsa and an egg w/ cream on top) Be sure to try TEX MEX food when in Texas 🤤🤤🤤
Don't try Tex-Mex food in Torbay, Devonshire, though. At least not fom a place called "Jingles." When I was dating my (American) now-wife, I took her there, and she ordered a chicken chalupa.
It came out enrobed in puff pastry.
Drizzled with hollandaise sauce.
We still laugh about it, 18 years later.
We have to eat ALL of it.....?
CAN I HAVE SOME MORE?!?!
I nominate Jono to be an honorary Texan
Somewhere inside me there's this old English actor, Gordon Jackson saying: 'Now why didn't anyone think of that before? Why it's so simple, it's absolutely brilliant!' Then he gets tackled by my cardiologist.
Mr. Hudson from Upstairs Downstairs!
Gravy is easy to make. It comes from the leavings of cooking a piece of meat. Add a little milk and a bit of flour.
Biscuits and gravy are my favorite camping food to make for breakfast. It tastes even better when you make it in a dutch oven.
Don’t know if you’ve already reacted to these, I don’t think so, but weird food history ( CZcams channel) has a series where they search out all of the variations of a particular food here in the US. They have covered pizza, hotdogs, and bbq, off the top of my head. These are great and I would love to see your reactions. Congrats to the 10k. Keep up the great work❤
🤣🤣😂Their "ughs" and all reactions make the videos. Love it. At least they give it a try. =)
My Dad ate gravey on everything but boobs and he lived a happy 47 years!
here in America what we call a toad in the hole is apice of bread toastd in a hot skillet with the middle cut out and an egg cracked into the middle of it my grandson loved them so much when he was little
Gravy is my favorite beverage!! 😃 In the US we make gravy out of basically any type of meat drippings and/or broth, which makes the types of gravy number in the double digits. We start with the roux of pan drippings or butter and flour, to that you can use any broth and/or milk. You can also thicken any broth with corn starch if you don't want to make a roux. My favorite is milk gravy made with drippings from fried chicken. SO GOOD!!! It's also not required to have biscuits. Gravy on a piece of bread or toast is also yummy.
Biscuits and gravy originated in the South but it has spread across the entire US. Having said that, if you are in the northeast or anywhere along the west coast I wouldn't recommend it. B&G are a dish you probably want to stick to in a rural area or in the south only. The northeast and west have their own cultural favorites and if you are going to be there, you should try those, which will be executed much better than their B&G. LOL Besides, the northeast has SO MANY different breads that you don't want to miss out on them. Their bagels, pretzels, bialys, challah, babka, knish, etc., are absolutely not to be missed
Congratulations on hitting 10,000!!!! I knew it would happen. You are so sweet and kind, thoughtful and smart. Wishing you all the best Jono!!!
im sure most of those breads are available near him; although, bridgeport CT does pump out some great breads. the best ive had in the country, however i think its mainly due to polish and german bakers. i have no idea if he has the same quality in slovakia.
Gotta say, the SG&B at Mike's Place in Kent, Ohio are on par with the best stuff I've had in the South.
@@joshjones718 You're right, being in Slovakia puts them smack dab in the middle of baked grain heaven and likely means they have a large selection of breads. I wasn't thinking of that. Instead, you may have noticed that most of the breads I listed are Jewish breads, which may have left their mark before being mostly eradicated from the area, but I don't know. I do believe there are currently more Jews in New York than all of Eastern Europe, so I was assuming a bit.
I was thinking of New York when I wrote of the northeast. I lived there and enjoyed the vast selection with so many bakeries representing nearly every nation. Of course there are many Italian bakeries, but also Greek, Hungarian, Columbian, Mexican and a huge selection of Jewish bakeries as well. They are all multitalented and produce all the breads a New Yorker wants to eat, but they also have their specialties, and they......ohhhh, they make life worth living, LOL. I now live in bush Alaska and I can't tell you how many Sunday mornings I've grieved for the want of a fresh bialy or everything bagel.......or a loaf of challah to make the best french toast ever.
@@Beedo_Sookcool Well, while I sort of slandered the west coast and the northeast for their B&G, I would never claim that there aren't restaurants or delis in those areas that absolutely nail it. I've had wonderful "country" food in the heart of Manhattan, so I know better. I'm just suggesting that for a tourist it's usually better to stick to what the locals do best. My other advice to tourists is to always ask the local folks where to eat and what to eat. So if they ran into you they could eat at Mike's Place in Kent! 😀😀
When I travel with my family our rule is no chain restaurants. We try to eat at local, privately owned places that are either recommended to us or have other qualities that we look for. Off the top of my head I don't remember any terrible experiences, but I have a terrible memory and tend to let that stuff go unless it can be made into a funny anecdote. 😊
I'm going to be traveling a bit in the next couple of years and if I ever make my way through Kent I'll try to remember to try Mike's.....thanks!!!
@@msdarby515 Yes, exactly correct with te "no chains" rule! In once tried SG&B at Cracker Barrel after someone's recommendation . . . I should've sued them for attempted poisoning.
My personal motto is "Always trust a well-travelled fat man when it comes to food and drink," so trust me when I say that if you're in Kent, Ohio, Mike's Place will be worth the stop. 😉
I'm from Southeast Texas and I love Biscuits and Sausage Gravy we eat them for Breakfast or dinner, also love my chicken or French fries dipped in gravy!
Toad in a hole in America is actually a piece of sandwich bread with the middle part cut out (usually in a circle) & an egg fried into the middle of it.
I grew up calling it milk gravy. It's country gravy, but it's only sausage gravy if there's sausage in it and you start with the grease from the sausage. You don't have to make it with meat at all.
Exactly, and there's country chicken gravy, and country beef gravy. To me, any gravy with milk is the "country". So you can have regular beef gravy, or country beef gravy. Is that how you call it? I'm a farm girl from South Dakota and we had milk cows and an abundance of milk, so milk was often the additive in our gravies. I would say we had gravy on the table at least once a day.......LOL My momma cooked three full meals a day to feed 4 to 5 hungry farmers and us kids. For example, we'd have a regular breakfast with sausage or bacon and eggs, maybe biscuits and gravy, made from whatever drippings from the meat that was served, like bacon, sausage or ham. Then fried chicken for lunch and roast beef for supper. Gravy with every meal!!! I can't imagine keeping up with that kind of kitchen demand!! Plus all the dishes and no dishwasher, either. In the summer we had extra hired hands and she packed up huge coolers of what she cooked or leftovers like fried chicken or roast beef sandwiches and we would have to haul it out to the fields and drop the lunches off to the different crews. I remember she'd always deliver to my dad last and how we'd sit in the clover on the edge of the field while he ate his lunch, and sometimes we'd have our lunch with him. What beautiful times. ❤
Congrats on the 10K
🎉
No one who eats Shepherd's Pie is allowed to describe anything else on earth as "looking like vomit".
Congrats on 10K subs!! 🎉🎉 I'm with you about people making "eeewww" to food they haven't tried, but these are reaction videos, so I try to remember that they want exaggerated reactions. And yes, sausage gravy is amazing, and super easy to make at home, as are biscuits. You should try them. :)
Always fun. Thanks.
There is so many different types of gravy. Gravy is just the general word for it. My favorite is sausage gravy and it's super easy to make. All you need is sausage, flour, milk and salt and pepper.
We have our brown gravy too but it is mostly eaten on food like Roast Beef and mashed potatoes. This is white sausage cream gravy. Breakfast Sausage gives it that special flavor that is perfect for biscuits. Regular White cream gravy goes with food like Chicken Fried Steak and potatoes. The gravy is made from the grease of the meat being cooked, cooked breakfast sausage, flour and whole milk. It gives off a creamy texture. The crumbled sausage makes it appear lumpy.
Congratulations on 10k. Keep up the good work. Love your channel
I'm from Virginia. Went to my aunt's house one summer for a week in Delaware. She asked what i wanted for breakfast one morning and me being a good ol southern boy i asked for biscuits and gravy . She had never heard of it and proceeded to make brown gravy. I sat there and ate every last bite on my plate. I didn't have the heart to tell her it was wrong
The best biscuits and gravy I’ve ever had was in rural Kentucky at a gas station called Happy Mart. Giant flakey biscuits, homemade sausage patties and white sausage gravy that could stop your heart. It’s been over 20 years since and I can still remember how it tastes
It's easy.
You just fry up a pound of pork sausage in a large skillet until fully cooked and browned, add 2 tablespoons of butter and stir to melt, sprinkle on 1/3 a cup of flour and stir, cook that for a minute on lower heat, then pour in 3 cups of milk, a teaspoon of pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cook, stirring on low until thickened. Oh, and split the scones open first.
(One US cup is about 250 ml. Or use any small cup.)
1:54
These are the same rules I grew up with too when it came to what food was put in front of you at dinnertime
What makes a really good gravy. Make it just like normal. A fair amount of black pepper, then put in about a Tablespoon of the brine from peppercinis. Right at the end and stir in, gives it a just a little zing and spice.
Biscuits are easy to make so is the gravy. 3 ingredients for the biscuits and 3 for the gravy. For biscuits use 2 cups self rising flour, 1 stick of butter chilled and cut into little pieces, Nd some buttermilk or just milk.cut the butter into the flour until crumbly then add in the milk slowly until moist but not too sticky.turn it outnon floyred surface roll it out to bout quarter inch thick fold and repeat bout 5 times.then heat oven to 410°farenhieght. Use something about 2 inches round or square and use it to cut out the biscuits.place on lightly greased baking dish about an inch apart. Bake for 12 to 18 minutes or until Brown on top. The gravy you cook some pork sage sausage in a pan.then throw in some flour to lightly mix into the grease from the sausage. Cook it for a few minutes.then slowly add in milk and whisk. Salt and pepper it. It will thicken as it cooks. Voila biscuits and gravy.
The fastest way I can describe what biscuits and gravy is to a commonwealther is "flaky dinner rolls with sausage bechamel". Biscuits are maybe similar to scones in their ingredients but the addition of an acid, usually buttermilk, radically alters the texture from something cakey and crumbly to something flaky and steamy soft in the middle. The sausage or sawmill gravy is essentially a roux based sauce made with meat drippings, in this case ground pork sausage with the actual sausage pieces mixed in. It doesn't look that great in photos, maybe because when you make something out of cream and sausage it inevitably comes out looking grey and brown.
I also highly recommend putting butter and honey and/or jam on a biscuit.
I like my biscuits fresh from the oven with butter and jam or honey😋 While I have never had it myself I have heard of biscuits and chocolate gravy.
As for a meal every day grilled hamburgers with fried onions
The only mushy peas I've ever seen were inside a small jar labeled "baby food".
Biscuits is the US get their leavening with baking soda or baking powder.
Lol I live in ohio and I keep sweet ice tea in my fridge prefer it to pop. I love watching other countries try our food❤
Where in Ohio? I used to live in North Canton, and would often go up to Mike's Place in Kent for their sausage gravy & biscuits. (And hashbrowns, and bacon and . . . .)
You can easily make this yourself- That’s just a milk gravy-if you have milk, flour, salt/pepper and butter-you can make this. Also-those chunks are breakfast sausage crumbled up. It’s so good-and an American southern staple!
Howdy from the pacific north west , every Sunday in my house we had biscuits and sausage gravy. It is easy to make. There's many recipes online. So what us Americans want to see is your family make biscuits and gravy. Thanks for sharing. 🤠
I find it so hard to believe that there is only one kind of gravy in the UK,right off the top of my head I can name at least 5 .
There's more than one kind of gravy in the UK. Just not THAT kind.
I just scared my dog when you said, "spotted dick isn't really a dick." Your expression when you realized what you'd actually said.🤣
🤣🤣
💕
Both are so easy to make! You’ll love it!
If gravy is cold it's awful....love sausage and gravy over grits!!! 👍🇺🇸
So, never had mushy peas much in the UK, but I make a peas purée with ginger and soy sauce that is pretty awesome. Actually started when making peas baby food for the babies. Super good!
I'm partial to Foresight brand pease pudding, myself. Much thicker and flourier than mushy peas, almost like pea-flavoured mashed potato. Goes great in hot sandwiches.
As an American, I don't mind when people look at biscuits and gravy and think it doesn't look good, as long as they try it because I can pretty much guarantee they'll change their tune if they just take a bite. Watching the mood shift 180 degrees is just hilarious to watch. I'm sure there was a point in my life as a child when I looked at biscuits and gravy and didn't think it looked appetizing but there's like a pavlovian response now where if something even remotely looks like sausage gravy, my mouth starts watering.
At a birthday party last weekend: had Chicken and Waffles, Grits, Biscuits and Gravy, fried chicken, delicious...😮
I'm guessing my invitation got lost in the mail? 😜
Let the flour brown up in the pan before adding the milk! My mom always did it that way.
Caught a lot of chickens in my day. Having the right tool for the job is key. Straighten out a coat hanger an in one end bend a "shepherds leg crook" around your little finger. A shepherds leg crook is sorta an 1800s keyhole shape. A hook with a wide mouth. With that in hand, you can walk up to chickens, hook their legs an catch them all day long. Rarely will they react to the wire.
I think that, initially, the kids reacted to the presentation. They dumped the gravy instead of spooning it on the biscuits.
🎉 Congratulations! 🎉 on the 10,000 🎉
Those biscuits were perfectly done... nicely browned and crunchy outside, and fluffy inside. And, it'[s sausage gravy with lots of butter. I make it a lot, and I sometimes use a pound of bacon instead of sausage. And, yes, a bit of jam on the side is quite good... sweet and savory always wins.
you know how you fix the mushy peas? you make split pea soup from them
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onion (1 medium)
1 1/4 cups chopped celery (about 3 ribs)
1 tsp minced garlic (1 clove)
4 cups unsalted chicken broth
4 cups water
1 (16 oz) bag dried split peas, picked over and rinsed
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh thyme, or 1/2 tsp dried
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lb meaty ham bone or ham shanks
1 cup chopped carrots
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery and saute 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1 minute longer.
Pour in chicken broth and water. Add split peas, bay leaves and thyme. Season lightly with salt and with pepper to taste (I like to wait to add more salt until the end to see how salty the ham has made the soup).
Nestle ham bone into soup mixture. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce to low. Cover and let simmer, stirring occasionally until peas and ham are tender, about 60 - 80 minutes.
Remove ham from soup, let rest 10 minutes then shred or dice meat portion into pieces, cover.
Meanwhile add carrots* to soup. Cover soup and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until peas have mostly broken down, about 30 minutes longer**.
Stir ham into soup, season with more salt as needed. Serve warm garnished with parsley if desired.
My Biscuits and Gravy Breakfast, includes a maple syrup sausage gravy, wirh a couple of over easy egg's, with shredded crispy hash browns, with some Chohula hot sauce.
In all of my thanksgiving experiences, we'd have both white and brown gravy. We're not against brown in the slightest, but we're KNOWN for the white.
What gets me about the "chopped up ferret" comment is that it's SO SPECIFIC. Like, not just "a chopped up animal" (which technically isn't an incorrect description with the sausage) but a ferret specifically. Ferrets aren't even in the list of top ten animals I think about! What has this child seen? XD
We never had mushy peas but Daddy would make cream peas with lots of black pepper and we love it.
You'll notice this guy (Jono), who lived in England for quite some time mentioned his dislike for English scones, saying they "tasted like sawdust." So that kid saying "fake scones" should be thankful Josh and Ollie spared him from sawdust and gravy. As for beans and toast? It's not horrible, it's just that Americans don't eat beans for breakfast, typically (admittedly, we find beans in the morning "weird."). The concept is not bad; just not in the morning.
What I know as toad in a whole is a slice of bread with butter on both sides and cut a whole in the middle then crack an egg in the whole and fry it in a skillet.
The thing about the South, and this is from an American perspective, is that even with all the problems the South has with poverty, bigotry, intolerance, refusal of diversity... they know food. They know food SO well.
Sweet iced tea can be sweetened to your liking. I usually get it unsweetened add my own sweetener to my taste.
SOS: Sh** on a Shingle. Toast bread with sausage gravy on top. US Army chow.
It's also served in prison in Texas (TDCJ) formerly Texas Department of Corrections, but no sausage in the gravy, and the gravy is watered down n' runny, no salt or pepper either, and the biscuits are hard as hockey pucks. Men have literally lost teeth, and bled from their gums trying to bite into a dobie. They're called "Dobies".
Btw, the green liquid in the horse trough is water, the black is coffee. Yes, you stick the table pitcher in the trough to fill it up. All sorts of nasty, dirty hands dipping into that trough. Guaranteed that each cup is chock full of floaties, and bacteriological, virulogical surprises. No cream or sugar either. Have fun. Texas luv's you!
The thing about sausage gravy is that it needs to be quite peppery or the creamy gravy will overwhelm the sausage. Typical dinner sausage will not do unless you add more pepper to the gravy.
We call what the English call a biscuit, a cookie. FYI...butter and jam is awesome on American biscuits.
I love honey butter too 😊 all depends on my mood for biscuit toppings.
@@BeboRulz Agree! Do you mix the honey into the butter or just drizzle? I like both, but usually just drizzle.
Biscuits and gravy are one of my favorite Southern foods. I’ve even experimented with using sausage and other meats together. I also very much enjoy putting grated cheese on top. I’ve also used different types of bread or even fries/ tater tots instead of biscuits. It’s still absolutely delicious. Another thing I have sort of tried but haven’t fully tried due to my kitchen situation currently is chicken and waffles with a sausage gravy on top.
Southerners go nuts with the sugar in the iced tea -though Brits love their sugar. Up north we put about a third the sugar and have something much more refreshing that you will likely drink more of.
I like mushy peas, with bacon bits mixed in. Sausage gravy with biscuits is amazing.
Congratulations bro, and can't wait to watch you try biscuits and gravy and chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and gravy.
Congratulations on reaching 10K subs!
I have had mushy peas on many days. I best like them with bits of both ham and potatoes. Thank you for this video.
You could easily make a good southern fried chicken. The key is to look for a recipe where you're dredging in a buttermilk/hot sauce mix.
I made biscuits and gravy this morning for breakfast .. with coffee
Just found your channel - binge watching your videos 😊
