redeye gravy
A traditional southern gravy made by combining the drippings from fried ham (purists insist on
COUNTRY-CURED HAM only) with water and hot coffee-the latter being optional. The mixture is cooked until thickened. It's served with the ham and spooned atop biscuits, cornbread . . . and whatever else the diner fancies.
