Biscuits and Gravy is the ultimate Southern comfort breakfast—rich, hearty, and soul-satisfying 🧈🍳. It’s a dish that’s simple in ingredients but big on flavor.
🥣 What Is It?
Biscuits: Flaky, buttery, and golden. Often made with buttermilk and chilled butter for maximum fluff.

Cook the sausage: Brown it in a skillet until no longer pink.
Make the gravy: Stir in flour, then slowly add milk. Simmer until thick.
