Biscuits

Sausage Gravy

Poached Eggs

Sausage Patties

Grits or Potatoes

Method

Biscuits

  1. 1

    Prepare the Biscuits

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Roll out to 1-inch thickness and cut into rounds. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden.

Sausage Gravy

  1. 2

    Make the Sausage Gravy

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then gradually whisk in the milk. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened. Season with black pepper and salt to taste.

Poached Eggs

  1. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    Fill a pot with water and add the vinegar. Bring to a gentle simmer. Crack the eggs into small bowls. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water and carefully slide the eggs in, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Sausage Patties

  1. 4

    Cook the Sausage Patties

    Form the pork sausage into patties. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the patties until browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

Grits or Potatoes

  1. 5

    Prepare Grits or Homestyle Potatoes

    For grits, bring water to a boil, gradually stir in the grits, and cook according to package instructions. For homestyle potatoes, dice potatoes and toss with olive oil and salt. Roast in the oven at 400°F (204°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden.
