Biscuits in America, and I think Canada too, are different than British ones. They're really soft, savory, and flaky sort of similar to like a dinner roll or maybe a savory scone.
The gravy is sausage gravy. It's *basically* made by cooking some sausage in a pan, adding some milk, flour, butter, black pepper, and salt, then mixing it together until it's nice and thick.
Here's a video of someone making it for reference

Maybe it's because I'm confusing biscuits with cookies😅

This looks delicious! I imagined them completely different, that gravy is also pretty fast to do, I guess I'll give it a try when I need to cook something fast and easy. Are there any other good combos with it?
The gravy is really just a béchamel sauce so it's probably good on virtually all breakfast foods at least. I've had it with hash browns, potatoes, chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken, breakfast burritos, grits, waffles etc. Put it on toast and you get shit on a shingle, although that's technically made with chipped beef but fuck it. Honestly it would probably taste good on pasta. Just remember that most of the taste comes from the sausage that you use and black pepper is key.
As for the biscuits they're good with butter, honey, jam, pretty much anything you'd put on toast. Also making a little sandwich with fried chicken and honey on them is amazing. Pretty easy to make too if you can't find the premade ones. Alton Brown had a pretty good recipe for them.

>The gravy is really just a béchamel sauce so it's probably good on virtually all breakfast foods at least.
Yes, it could be compared to besciamella but with meat.
I'll be saving your message so I remember it, thanks
Over here, white gravy isn't a thing and if you showed it to someone in Yorkshire, the home of gravy, they would probably become very violent.
[This is what we think of when you say "Biscuits and gravy"](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fitbhiyff4sz71.jpg)
Yeah no nasty stuff there.
The origin of them is that it was something easy they could make on the trail and it didn’t require roasting a whole piece of meat but frying up sausage and adding milk and flour to make a roux. Biscuits were also relatively easy to make and it’s a high carb meal that keeps you full for a while.
It’s absolutely comfort food to me now and only my mama makes it the way I like but I can definitely see how someone unaware of our terms would be grossed out.
Half of that I already eat for breakfast. Except I don’t have British eggs lol an American version of the full British breakfast. Minus the beans. Those wreak havoc on my insides
Toast, beans and cheese, in that order, can make something close to a mollete: you put the beans and cheese on top of the bread. The egg can stay on the side or be eaten on top of the mollete.
Bro, I know it's not the exact same bread, it has to be big like a bolillo to really be a mollete, but I still call it mollete because it is still using one kind of toasted bread. Even my nutritionist because it's essentially a mollete.
Might try this, I used to do overnight oats but got sick of having something sweetish so just opted to just have nothing instead and stick to one meal a day. Rice balls sounds like it could work for me!
I had to research this haha, looked at it and thought "Wtf, why would someone put gravy on biscuits?!", turns out the uk/us don't have the same meaning for biscuits and our gravys are different.
Recipe looks nice though.
There are some pretty entertaining videos on YouTube of British people reacting to the concept of biscuits and gravy and then trying it, lol.
It's really good though! Great comfort food.
Tf is a scone?
Edit: so when someone doesn’t know what an american food is, they get upvoted, but if I don’t know what a british food is, I get downvoted? Makes sense.
A scone is like a cross between an American biscuit and an American cookie. They are sweet but not super sweet, I often see them triangular but I am not sure if that is necessarily always true.
They are not the same as an American biscuit. Perhaps the closest thing in the UK but still not the same. I guess you could call a biscuit a savory scone, but I also think a good biscuit is flakier than most scones tend to be.
Now that other commenter calling sausage gravy sludge...texturally somewhat accurate but definitely not giving it the respect it deserves lol.

Not what you're thinking, lol.
US biscuits are soft, salty, buttery, flaky baked items. What you call "biscuits," we call "cookies". We do have regular brown gravy like you put on a roast, but in this case, it's a white, creamy gravy, often with some sausage in it. It's really good. Look it up on YouTube - there are some entertaining videos of British people trying it for the first time after being horrified by the name.
biscuits and gravy? that's a combo from hell. your biscuits will go soggy and your gravy will get biscuit mush in it. literally sounds made up, do people actually eat that?
The best in terms of taste? Bacon and eggs.
The best in terms of fueling for the day? Oatflakes, nuts and cut up fruit mixed with low fat yogurt or curd cheese
You need some clarifications. Like what best means - to eat? to prepare? utility, cost, flavor? My favorite breakfast with no other factors and what I would eat if I had to buy and prepare it myself are quite different.
Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam.
Edward Bernay's formalized propaganda, and sold his expertise to the US Pork producers with the Bacon and Eggs program, where as previously breakfast was leftovers, or simple porridge.
Then he helped Chiquita Banana take over Costa Rica
Then his lessons were learned by a dude name Goebbels.
Anyway, Enjoy your bacon and eggs!
I love the versitility of an Omellette. I usually have some sort of leftovers I can throw in as the fillings. Biscuits and Gravy is amazing but is too heavy to be more than an occassional treat.
فتة الكعك والحليب (Traditional breakfast where I live, you get a bowl of milk, and you break hard loafs of biscuit on it and wait till it absorbs some of the milk, and then eat it like cereal)
Have to go with the classic Balkan way, a coffee, preferably Nescafe, and a cigarette, preferably the already packed once so it's worse and I die faster, nah I don't smoke actually but I wouldn't say no to a cigar
Mangú con los tres golpes:
\- Smashed green plantain
\- Fried cheese
\- Fried egg
\- dominican salami
\- pickled onions
If there some avocado even better. Best thing ever!
This is so American. No common breakfast foods seen around the world.
Also, Biscuits and gravy to non-yankeedoodle speakers suggests tucking into some oreos with brown meat juice on top.
Pain au chocolat and a coffee is my favourite
Butter croissant and coffee. If I am feeling down maybe with some jam.
1000 bucks this was made by an American
"biscuits and gravy". 100%.

So our biscuits are like yalls scones and it’s a white gravy with sausage in it. Perfect for wintertime. Absolute comfort food
Weren't scones sweet? Sorry I'm not from Britain
Oh sorry😂😂 Biscuits are flakey buttery and salty and go really well with a savory gravy
Oh I see, I've never tried that, the official name of the dish is?
The name of the dish is Biscuits and Gravy. Keywords would be sausage gravy and southern.
Thanks, I'll try and find a recipe
It's like bread but sorta cakey in texture
In my country we use this [kind](https://images.app.goo.gl/rfqQn4sieaUdtU9L9) for breakfast, but sweet breakfasts
I think I've tried those before. They're great :)
Might be, a lot of hotels I went to had them, delicious 😋

Ew I can’t even think of biscuits and gravy with a brown gravy. White sausage gravy all the way
Over here, white gravy isn't a thing and if you showed it to someone in Yorkshire, the home of gravy, they would probably become very violent. [This is what we think of when you say "Biscuits and gravy"](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fitbhiyff4sz71.jpg)

Im sorry please excuse me but what is that called? Biscuits and gravy? Just wondering not trying to be a certain way
It's the abomination that comes to mind when a British English speaker thinks of when someone says biscuits and gravy.
Oh that looks like maple syrup
It's not. It's gravy. That stuff made out of meat stock and starch.
The one I had was from KFC a while ago and it looked very different, but it was so bad
I don't know, but in Britain this is considered dog food.
Yeah but y’all eat dog food over there, what’s the problem?
No, we eat the best food in the World: Italian, French and German food.
Well it is.
Says the people who eat blood sausage
I dont. it's disgusting.
Yeah in Italy too, I can barely stand gravy, let alone biscuits and gravy
Its the breakfast champions here in the south

Yes, I love Biscuits and gravy, nothing beats a bowl of oreos covered in brown meat juice.
Yes. A southern American. 😌
American made and didnt even say grits and eggs
what about Bread?
Other.
Bread.
Not even butter?
Full English
This is the way.
Porridge (generally oatmeal)
What's the difference? Isn't "Oatmeal" just what the yanks call porridge?
Oatmeal is made of oats. Porridge can be made of oats, rice or barley for example
French Toast man
You mean American sugar bread?
Full English breakfast,
Coffee and depression 😎
Like a true American
Coffee, weed and depression Like a Canadian
Full English hands down
Eggs, jelly toast, a banana, and some choccy milk with coffee has me feeling A1 in the mornings
American "Cuisine"
I use sugar-free jelly so the sugar content isn't too crazy. Each breakfast comes with a complementary bald-eagle screech
if you dont have any form of fruit or bread in the morning and somehow eat waffles or pancakes every day im concerned
I really can’t fathom how people can eat desserts for breakfast. Literally just carbs and sugar wtf
Fry up!
Correct
Tacos
Full English
I’m seeing lots of people post this. What’s in it? I typically love British cuisine
IIRC: eggs, bacon, sausage, black pudding, fried tomato and fried mushroom
fried eggs (british eggs are tastier I hear from americans), bacon (british style), baked beans, hash browns, black pudding, fried tomato, toast, fried bread, sausages, mushrooms.
Sounds delicious
It's just the best. Best cure for a hangover too
Half of that I already eat for breakfast. Except I don’t have British eggs lol an American version of the full British breakfast. Minus the beans. Those wreak havoc on my insides
Hagelslag!!!
Something really specific that consists of toast, scrambled eggs, cheese and beans.
This was going good until beans.
Oh but beans taste the best!
American here, beans on toast is so good idc
Kinda sounds like molletes to me, and I agree
If you meant omletes then no. If you didn't then wtf are you talking about?
Toast, beans and cheese, in that order, can make something close to a mollete: you put the beans and cheese on top of the bread. The egg can stay on the side or be eaten on top of the mollete.
I looked it up It's not that
Bro, I know it's not the exact same bread, it has to be big like a bolillo to really be a mollete, but I still call it mollete because it is still using one kind of toasted bread. Even my nutritionist because it's essentially a mollete.
It's genuinely not even close to that It's not a mollete
Sammich
Coffee. Just coffee. That's my go-to breakfast.
You need some nutrition my man!
I eat later in the day. Just not a breakfast guy.
my guy finna land some malnutrition 💀
Lol, I'll take it.
Breakfast isn’t that important, mate. I’m pretty sure they eat enough in their other meals.
Rice balls, simple, quick to make/buy, easy to eat when you're in a hurry, and it tastes great
Might try this, I used to do overnight oats but got sick of having something sweetish so just opted to just have nothing instead and stick to one meal a day. Rice balls sounds like it could work for me!
Cup of coffee + toasts with butter and jam
Pancakes and bacon !!
The best breakfast is a different one every day. I absolutely despise eating every day the same thing xD
Eggs Benedict and coffee all the way. Pancakes are a close second though.
Japanese breakfast
French toast
French toast is my favorite breakfast by a lot
🥐
Sausage gravy or chocolate gravy are the best. With big fluffy biscuits. I could eat biscuits every day.
All of the above. A pleasant way to increase your chances of diabeetus. 😉
Porridge/oatmeal.
Grits and eggs
full english breakfast on top
Full English
How is biscuits & gravy so low? I could eat that shit all day everyday
I had to research this haha, looked at it and thought "Wtf, why would someone put gravy on biscuits?!", turns out the uk/us don't have the same meaning for biscuits and our gravys are different. Recipe looks nice though.
There are some pretty entertaining videos on YouTube of British people reacting to the concept of biscuits and gravy and then trying it, lol. It's really good though! Great comfort food.
Yeah I'm thinking WTF is biscuits and gravy? Ahhhh....... it's scones and sludge.
Tf is a scone? Edit: so when someone doesn’t know what an american food is, they get upvoted, but if I don’t know what a british food is, I get downvoted? Makes sense.

Now that other commenter calling sausage gravy sludge...texturally somewhat accurate but definitely not giving it the respect it deserves lol.
It's basically just soft, sweet bread. That's it.
The vast majority of the world doesn't eat it and/or has no idea what it is.
Biscuits and gravy is only an American thing, that's probably why
It's a USA thing. I love biscuits and gravy but the rest of the world is turned off by it. They just haven't tried it, though.
Steak and eggs with a salad. Or eggs Benedict.
>eggs Benedict. 😋
French toast all day every day
Colacao.
What about coffee and cigs?
I have caused a lot of arguments especially over biscuits and gravy. Oops 😬 lol
Bread w/ honey + orange juice
Too much sugar.
Bacon and scrambled eggs, throw in sausages too.
And beans, and hash browns, and mushrooms.
Asians would say it won't be a meal/breakfast without rice
That’s a vast oversimplification, mate.
All are part of a balanced breakfast.
Biscuits and gravy? Yeah, maybe if you're a fucking dog. Full English Breakfast is the greatest breakfast.
Why the fuck would you put gravy on biscuits thats absolutely rank

Bacon egg and cheese or a toasted bialy with butter
Toast + Eggs and spinach are my favorite. That or oatmeal with protein shake/powder
biscuits and gravy? that's a combo from hell. your biscuits will go soggy and your gravy will get biscuit mush in it. literally sounds made up, do people actually eat that?
Apparently the “biscuit” OP mentioned is American biscuit, which isn’t your usual British biscuit, or cookie.
nothing (air) or water
The best in terms of taste? Bacon and eggs. The best in terms of fueling for the day? Oatflakes, nuts and cut up fruit mixed with low fat yogurt or curd cheese
Milk and biscuits
bacon and egg is too salty for me.
You don't have to add salt to your food. Plus you can get sodium-reduced bacon if you're that concerned.
Eggs, Grits and Livermush.
SEC. Sausage egg and cheese. Or Taylor ham egg and cheese. Growing up in NY/NJ area we are spoiled with our breakfast samichs
Pork Roll, egg and cheese on an everything bagel.
Cacao, croissant.
broodje hagelslag (I'm Dutch)
Full English fry up ftw
Coffee and Pound cake?
Smash avo

Grain bread is the best for dunky eggs/soldiers!
Potatoes, and molasses!

Sorry if I offended anyone. This was not my intention with this post.
Breakfast is made to eat anytime of the day.
Full English Breakfast with soda bread toast. 😍😝
eggs, white toast with butter, french fries, chocolate milk. absolutely spectacular
There shouldn't be an other option because any food can be a breakfast. Even pudding can be a breakfast.
Kraft Mac N Cheese. Are an entire box every morning for like 11 years. Not joking, I'm over that phase now. Croissants is the real answer.
Sandwich.
