Drop Biscuits and Gravy
SUBMITTED BY:

"'We enjoy these flaky biscuits covered with creamy gravy not only for breakfast, but sometimes for dinner,' reports Darlene Markel of Sublimity, Oregon. Priced at only 27 cents per serving, 'It's hard to find a more stick-to-the-ribs meal and at such a low cost,' she notes."

"Wow. Just like Davey's Chuck Wagon in Denver,” my wife said after her first bite. Instead of cutting back on the sausage (as others have suggested), I simply increased the amount of milk in the gravy to 2 cups. Also, I highly recommend adding freshly cracked pepper liberally while cooking. And if looks matter to you, the way you drop the biscuit batter on the cookie sheet is the way they’ll come out. Be sure to double the recipe if you’re serving more than 3 people. The recipe for the biscuits makes about 5 large biscuits -- consider doubling it even if you don't double the gravy recipe.

I make the gravy for this all the time. I have my own biscuit recipe that is just great. The only thing I do differently is that I used about 1-2 tablespoons of bacon grease along with some dried sage. It works great. Thanks for the base recipe to help me out.

I personally used bisquick to make drop biscuits (just easier) yet I flavour them with dill and rosemary. For the sausage, this is a great starter but I do prefer more gravy to sausage than this gave me. With some tinkering, this has been wonderful!!!

I only made the biscuit portion of this recipe, so I can not comment on the gravy, but the biscuits were the best I have ever made. Ever. Yay! I lightly hand formed them in to "biscuit" shapes rather than just scooping and dropping them on the pan. Next time I will add a pinch more salt.

Wow!!! I have never had gravy biscuits in my life up until yesterday. I live in the South, so I figured I needed to at least try one in my lifetime. I did, and I was instantly addicted! I made them again this morning! Do the recipe as is, as it is PERFECT! Loved it!

I did not make the gravy portion of this recipe but did make the biscuits. My dad is my biggest critic and he told me that "These are the best biscuits I ever had". They are light and fluffy. To the people that thought they were dense must of over mixed them and made them tough. The key of biscuits is to never over mix. I cooked mine in greased muffin tins and they turn out wonderful. I will definltey make these in the future.

I enjoyed the gravy but would not use this recipe for biscuits again. The biscuits were dense and heavy.

So very tasty and quick!! I used a bit less sausage as well for a more creamy gravy it was totally awesome!! Good for a large family breakfast or even for camping. Layer with your favorite eggs and a few dashes of Tabasco and you've got a good ol' diner breakfast in your jammies!!

It's so delicious! I use hot breakfast sausage for extra spiciness, and I add rosemary and cheddar cheese to the drop biscuits... Everyone loves them!
