Biscuits with Gravy

Biscuits with Gravy

Biscuits, as they are known in the southern USA, are uniquely North American. The closest thing to an American biscuit in Europe or South America would be a scone. But unlike scones, biscuits are light and fluffy and usually served steaming hot from the oven, sometimes covered in butter and honey or cream gravy. Sort of like scones with a post-graduate degree

Ingredients

For the Biscuits

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus more for cutter
  • 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
  • 8 tbsp unsalted butter cubed and chilled, plus 2 tbsp. melted
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk

For the Gravy

  • 2 bacon slices, finely chopped
  • 8 oz pork sausage
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream (30% to 35%)
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
  • salt to taste
  • hot sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions

Make the biscuits:

  • Heat oven to 425°. Place flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl, and whisk to combine. Add chilled butter, and using your fingers, rub mixture together until pea-size crumbles form. Add buttermilk, and stir with a fork until just combined.
  • Transfer to a floured work surface, and gently pat dough into a 6"x4" rectangle, about 1" thick. Dip a 3" round cutter into a bowl of flour, and cut out rounds of dough. Press scraps together, and repeat with remaining dough until you have about 6 rounds.
  • Brush a 9" cake pan with melted butter, arrange biscuits in pan, and brush the tops with melted butter. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes.

Make the gravy:

  • Place bacon in a 4-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook, stirring occasionally, until its fat renders, about 3 minutes. Add sausage and, cook, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring for 2 minutes.
  • Add milk and cream, and bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until gravy is thickened, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar, cayenne, and salt and pepper, and stir until combined.
