Bacon Gravy For Biscuits Recipes

OLD TIME KENTUCKY BACON MILK GRAVY FOR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat bacon drippings in a skillet over medium heat; whisk flour into drippings until smooth. Reduce heat to low and cook the flour mixture until it turns a caramel brown color, stirring constantly, about 15 minutes. Be careful, the roux burns easily. Stir in salt and black pepper.
• Whisk 1/2 cup milk into the roux until thoroughly blended. Continue whisking milk into the gravy, 1/2 cup at a time, whisking in each amount of milk completely before adding more. Bring gravy to a simmer and whisk constantly until thick, smooth, and bubbling.

BACON GRAVY FOR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Bake biscuits according to package directions.
• Cook the bacon in a deep skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate and keep the grease in the pan. Gradually stir in the flour so that no lumps form, then mix in the milk, continuing to cook and stir until thickened. Crumble the bacon into the gravy and season with salt and pepper before serving.
• Split biscuits in half, top with gravy, and enjoy!

LOW CARB BACON GRAVY

Steps:

• In a heavy fry pan cook the bacon over med-high heat until done. Remove the bacon to a plate to cool and carefully (it's hot!) remove all, but 1/4 cup of the bacon grease from the pan (reserve the extra for another use). Dice up bacon.
• Turn the heat under the pan to med-high and whisk the flour into the bacon grease that is in the pan. Continue to stir, allowing the roux to turn light golden brown and to froth.
• Turn the heat down to medium and add the cream and water to the pan while continuing to stir. The gravy will thicken as it continues to cook. Once it is as thick as you would like, return the cooked, diced bacon to the pan, stirring to incorporate in the gravy. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat and serve.

EASY HOMEMADE BUTTER BISCUITS AND BACON GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Using a regular sized skillet, first fry bacon in skillet. Crumble bacon in bowl and set aside, but do not drain the grease - keep grease on low heat while making biscuits.
• Mix all ingredients for biscuits in bowl until mostly dense dough forms and slightly wet. If dough is dry, add milk sparingly.
• Grease baking sheet or I like to use a baking stone. Pull apart small balls of dough and drop on sheet - makes 9 biscuits. Bake until tops are slightly brown and middles are done.
• Depending on how much grease is in skillet you can pour some out. Using a whisk or wooden spoon, I like to have about 3-4 Tbsp. of grease in skillet, sprinkle flour in slowly and keep stirring until medium consistency mixture forms.
• It's important to keep stirring so no lumps form. You want this mixture to be smooth. While still stirring, I take a gallon of milk and pour until my skillet is 3/4 the way full (approx. 5-7 cups).
• Add crumbled bacon, salt & pepper, and bring to slow boil - constantly stirring. When gravy thickens to your likeness, reduce heat and break open a biscuit and serve.
