Biscuits 'n gravy, Firewires

I ordered a breakfast platter at an event recently which sounded delicious- only to get dinner rolls slathered in canned gravy with the texture & flavor of soggy newspaper. Surely we can do better than that at home?

Scratch made buttermilk dough, with grated frozen butter.

Sausage browning in CIS.

Didn't get quite the rise I was hoping for, not sure this method regulated the temperature well enough. But the flavor was on point.

Plated with scrambled eggs, and some juice skimmed from the top of the pot of tomato soup we canned the night before.

A couple views of harvesting equipment, both vintage and modern that I was lucky enough to see in the last week.

A quick cook, one Firewire loaded with pork loin and pineapple, the other chicken with onion and red peppers. Both meats marinated in an Alabama white sauce my sister brought home from a business trip- it was quite tasty.

Very nice evening at the cabin, they were doing some S'mores on the fire but I never got a pic of those to finish this out. Never got to eat one either, come to think of it!

If the world were to end tomorrow, those biscuits & gravy would be high on my list for the last breakfast I'll ever eat.
 
Nice pics.

Biscuits, gravy and skewers all look good.

Make sure you get yourself a s'more next time. ;)
 
The posts on this forum keep getting better and better. This one is stellar. Thanks for sharing with us, Clay!

Keep on smokin',

Clay, would you be able to share your biscuit and gravy recipe or is it a secrete family recipe?

Nothing real fancy. Just melted some butter in the skillet the sausage came from, slowly added some milk & flour, pepper to taste, and stirred the sausage back in. Internet search for "scratch-made buttermilk biscuits" will get you plenty of recipes.
 
Great post Clay. You did a great job on those biscuits and gravy. Sure made me hungry! Great job with the fire wire also. Love that picture at dusk outside your cabin.
 
Both look great Clay! If you like old machinery, check out the Threshermans Reunion just outside of Pontiac IL
usually the weekend after Labor Day.
