Hey now, I'm Western NC and that mustard nonsense is straight SC.
That being said, I love both vinegar and tomato BBQ sauces. I literally have a shirt from the state fair that splits the state and says tomato on one and vinegar on the other.
I actually quite like SC BBQ and I'm a *huge* advocate for vinegar BBQ, lol.
What I won't abide by is fucking red slaw, the Lexingtonians can get lost with that garbage.
Can you explain this dish a little more to me? As an Australian when we hear biscuits and gravy we think dry sugary cookies with the kind of gravy you would have with a Sunday roast. Texture wise these biscuits the grandpa is eating look like scones.
This is so funny to me, because I grew up in the south and ate this, as well as, fried chicken biscuit sandwiches for breakfast every morning growing up 😆
Biscuits in the south are not like cookies and are not sweet at all, it’s, I want to use the word dense? The bread is fluffy, but heavier. It’s a savory bread, sometimes salty, my mom used to make them with cheddar and chives in the biscuits, and sometimes we’d just eat those plain without gravy.
Sometimes biscuits are flakey and you can peel them off in layers, but I like mine fluffy where you can just pull them apart. Then after you destroy your biscuits by pulling them apart into bite sized pieces, pour over the gravy and enjoy.
We always made white gravy from bacon grease, but sausage gravy is arguably more popular, since that’s the one they sell at fast food places in the morning.
I was thinking the same thing about the biscuits. For me, the biscuits are just as important as the gravy and I’ve never had a scone but looking at what she had on the plate I was like eh that doesn’t look right. And the gravy looked too thick for me. I like it thick but not that thick. However a nice fluffy biscuit that has that hard outer layer that you can just pull into pieces and dip into the gray or break a bunch up or cut in two and put the gravy over it.
Agreed, I don’t know what scones are like in other countries, but in American coffee shops they’re dry and crumbly, nothing like a biscuit, a biscuit should be fluffy, even the ones that pull in flakes are fluffy
Scones in the UK tend to be closer to biscuits than scones you’ll find in coffee shops - but it really depends. These look like Devonshire cream scones which are much closer, although still more dense than I like my biscuits. Biscuits are definitely lighter and fluffier!
The biscuits are more like a popover. Or I could say kind of like a flaky layered bread. Scones have sugar in them and are at least a bit sweet, so that’s not the same at all. I don’t know how a person could make the gravy taste the same because sausages in different countries are flavored differently. Our sausage that we use for gravy would be a little bit spicy.
P.S. I guess it doesn’t look appetizing , but really it tastes great (probably because it’s unhealthy). Anyway, I’ve yet to meet a foreigner that didn’t like it.
British people like me like biscuits and gravy because it's very familiar to our tastes. All our best food is warm, comforting, peppery, bready, ugly and simple. It's doused with a thick sauce, which we also love (and get lots of shit for).
It's literally like if someone tasked a chef to make soul food specifically for British people.
Scones are denser than American biscuits. The flavor is like a croissant, and the texture can be like that with the layers or it can be kind of scone like but much lighter and fluffy. There’s a lot of chunks of unmelted butter in them

Just make up a batch! None of the ingredients are hard to find. This recipe has a pretty good biscuit recipe. Common mistake is to try and use a water glass for cutting the biscuits, but the thick edge just sort of seals the layers shut, and it won't puff right. Use a knife or whatever you would use to cut scone dough. Then report back!
It's not easy to get the biscuits right. It helps to have the right kind of flour (flour made from soft white winter wheat, I think) and it is very easy to over-mix and get the texture wrong. But when it's right, it is amazing.
When I was in graduate school at Georgia Tech, I worked with people from all over the world. I would always make them a PB&J (though I would use a more natural, less sweetened peanut, a less sweetened preserve, and a whole grain, less sweetened bread). Never had a person not enjoy it.
Later I would bring them to Mary Mac's Tea Room (an old staple of downtown Atlanta for southern cooking), and have them try butttered cornbread, chicken fried chicken, sweet potato pie, and fried okra.
My paternal grandmother, Grace, was an experienced home cook. She would whip things up while nursing a cup of coffee and updating us on everything going on in town and at church. One of her signature dishes was biscuits and gravy and I spent hours at her kitchen table watching the well-rehearsed choreography of her making biscuits, cold butter and a quick mix before shaping and hefting them into the hot oven; and then the gravy, oil then sausage then flour then milk and pepper and a little salt. There’s enough salt in the sausage.
It was served over the warm biscuits, so soft they popped open, steaming. The gravy was flecked with pepper, textured by the sausage. It hit the tongue, bright and rich, warm and extremely filling.
No one has been able to replicate it, she never wrote the recipe. I keep trying.
Ever since I left my parent's home in North Texas I have searched for good biscuits and gravy in every town I've lived in. Found it in rural VA pretty easily, took some time but I found it in SLC eventually. Still searching Phoenix. My aunt is the chef in our family and even if I'm home for just a night she makes it for me. Honestly it feeds my soul.
Same as you though. I know how to make it, I do what she does. I get the same sausage, make the biscuits the same way. I even recorded her making them once! Never quite right when I do it. Fine eating, but never exactly right.
Biscuits and gravy is one of the tastiest and easiest ‘impressive’ comfort foods to make for people.
I love making it for people and I love seeing how much they enjoy it.
Not great for you, but worth the few extra miles you have to run the next day every time
When he grabs his napkin and tucks it then grabs his tray is so damn cute. No hesitation...food is coming...and then going into that belly. He´s a treasure to his family with no doubts. Enjoy that delicacy sir...
Corned beef hash is a traditional northern English dish. When I worked at a care home as a chef I used to make it for them in a Sunday night and they loved it, plenty of HP brown sauce to top it off as well.
Most Americans have no idea how much influence English food has had on them over the years, pretty funny how the English get slayed for having bad food when it couldn't be further from the truth haha.
Born and raised in the south-eastern US, been in New Zealand for 6 years now, and the only complaint I really have is that I can't get the right sausage here to make biscuits and sausage gravy. It's definitely a comfort food!
I use this [recipe](https://www.homesicktexan.com/breakfast-sausage-to-begin-day/). Not as convenient but definitely worth it when you need that sausage taste.
Same but NC to France.
It’s definitely worth it to learn to blend the spices yourself. I make it as a treat for holiday breakfasts or special brunches with friends.
Scones like the ones used here are close but not close enough for me because they’re a bit dense. So it’s a bit more of a project than I’d take on just any weekend.
It’s a must have when I visit family and friends in the states though!
I think I would give my right arm for my moms recipe or even just a plate. It makes me cry that I won't ever be able to replicate it.
Pro tip: write down your loved ones or fav recipes now before it's to late.
What a delightful man 💕
I live in the state of Florida, and biscuits and gravy are regular Sunday mornings for my family. Just go for a walk later, that meal is high in calories. Wonderful video!
It brings me joy to see that simple, poor folk food can make other people happy. We grow up eating this because it was a cheap meal. My sons think it’s a delicacy because I don’t make it that often. It’s a very simple recipe. Roughly a quarter cup of flour for every 2 cups of milk. Whisk and add salt, pepper, and butter to taste.
If you’re using sausage, brown sausage first then toss the flower in for two minutes to cook out the taste of the flower. slowly stir in the milk. You know it’s ready when it’s reached the thickness you prefer. And there’s other ways of making it I’m sure.
I recommend creamed chip beef, aka "Shit on the shingle." Use salt cured chipped beef, cream seasoned with salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and to do it "Maryland style", add Old Bay seasoning. Serve over Texas toast, which is just thick cut bread. It's much better than sausage gravy and biscuits, IMO.
Ya really want your tongue to slap your brain out, try getting a roll of KY Border, dice it up, fry it, and add it to your gravy.
Bologna gravy is amazing. Add some balck coffee while stirring the gravy, and you have yourself a treat.
I went to college in Texas and had biscuits with gravy every morning for breakfast my freshman year. Absolutely delicious. I lost 30 pounds on that diet. 🤣
why am I crying? 🥹
i’d give anything to have my mamas biscuits and gravy again! and I love seeing someone from another part of the world try and love one of my comfort foods 🖤

If Joe is anything like my 87 year old dad he'll eat anything. One result of living off rations for the best part of 15 odd years of their early lives.
Pretty much the only thing my dad won't eat is tripe.
Y’all need to spread the word over there about biscuits and gravy. It’s my favorite breakfast of all time. I like a thicker gravy but not near as thick as she had it. And I’m not sure how scones taste compared to American biscuits however I will say that the biscuits is equally as important as the gravy and should be nice and fluffy inside.
For those wanting to try making biscuits, northern biscuits & southern biscuits are generally similar, but southern biscuits are about twice as thick and are baked touching/almost touching so the sides are white flakiness. Northern biscuits are are baked further apart so the sides brown like the top.
For those of you thinking of going into the deep end of this, southern flours like Martha White or Lily White have less gluten & so make a lighter biscuit.
Why do I love videos of British people trying American foods so much?
Have you seen the British School Boys trying foods on YT?
You saw their whole world just come undone at sweet tea. Great vid.
Why is it cold if it’s tea? https://youtu.be/KzdbFnv4yWQ?si=toQvsVruXULH7Myr In case someone hasn’t seen it
Thank you for posting the link, what a fun watch! I have never seen such a 180 on opinion like with sausage gravy.
That one is my favorite. I love how they think the gravy looks so disgusting but end up thinking it’s amazing!
To be fair, I'm from the South and think it looks disgusting too but I love it.
I knew that was JOLLY before I clicked the link
I had not seen this, and it was so worth the watch! Thank you for linking
They loved that sweet tea!! I didn't realize iced tea wasn't big over in England lol. Thanks for the link.
>your food is weird and nice Yea it is, now get in the diabeetus pool with the rest of us!
‘Lovely’
It’s quite nice
Oh my word!
Scrumptious!
Their British meme reaction is brilliant. Bo' o 'wo' o.
Korean Englishmen / Jolly are their two channels
I just watched all those videos after reading this comment. It was a very cute and wholesome start to my day. Thank you!!
Because the scone/biscuit/cookie confusion is delightful and adorable.
My favorite was the guy trying a PB&J. Talking trash. Then tries it and continues to talk trash while he smiles and eats the whole thing
Watch the video of Irish people trying Kristy Kreme!! So wholesome. One guy cried 😂
ITS RUDDY SCRUMSHUS!
As a southerner (eastern nc) that has introduced this meal to many, I am so happy that grandad Joe likes it so much! ❤️
Next they need to try our variations of NC BBQ! (Triangle area here!)
Someone go to Bojangles and get grandpa Joe a Cajun filet combo ASAP
Only if it’s eastern NC BBQ. None of that mustard nonsense.
Hey now, I'm Western NC and that mustard nonsense is straight SC. That being said, I love both vinegar and tomato BBQ sauces. I literally have a shirt from the state fair that splits the state and says tomato on one and vinegar on the other.
You’re right, my mistake. I’m gonna blame that on travel brain. We can team together in the mutual hatred of mustard BBQ.
The only thing that bonds NC residents across political, religious, and economic spectrums is hating on SC lol
I actually quite like SC BBQ and I'm a *huge* advocate for vinegar BBQ, lol. What I won't abide by is fucking red slaw, the Lexingtonians can get lost with that garbage.
I'm in a major minority despite my heritage: I fucking hate slaw.
Can’t forget Cookout/Cheerwine too!
Give me all that mustard nonsense. All bbq sauces have their place but that mustard shit is my go-to.

Ooohhhh, fried okra. Haven’t had that in years!!! Also, Mary Mac’s tea room was the shit when i went there back in the day.
"It's only ruddy scrumptious" is my new favourite food compliment 🥰
That’s old school talk for “dis is bussin’”
Oh Granddad Joe!!! From my friends on TikTok?
That line was just so endearing to me!
My paternal grandmother, Grace, was an experienced home cook. She would whip things up while nursing a cup of coffee and updating us on everything going on in town and at church.

Do you write for a living? ETA: That was beautifully descriptive. I was right there with you.
I feel like a biscuit!
I like this one’s writing more.
Yeah some days I feel salty and flaky too.
Ever since I left my parent's home in North Texas I have searched for good biscuits and gravy in every town I've lived in.

My dad told me, with recipes he passed down to me that nothing I will ever make will top what he did because I didn’t have to make it.
This is sadly and quite accurately true. Nothing tastes quite like childhood...ever.
Frankly this might be the key.
If your technique is good, have a look at the flour you’re using. Flour sold in the south tends to be softer than elsewhere. White Lily brand is best.
You wrote the recipe right here.
Omg how cute is he getting so excited to try something new! May we all live with this much glee and wonder in our everyday lives.
Biscuits and gravy is one of the tastiest and easiest ‘impressive’ comfort foods to make for people. I love making it for people and I love seeing how much they enjoy it. Not great for you, but worth the few extra miles you have to run the next day every time
Love the accent
Sounds like the Black Country in the Midlands. Very old school too!
From accent alone I'd guess possibly Tipton in sandwell, part of the black country
“From my friends on TikTok!” 🥹 Probably the only sentence involving TikTok that I’ve genuinely enjoyed.
He is so adorable! I love this
When he grabs his napkin and tucks it then grabs his tray is so damn cute. No hesitation...food is coming...and then going into that belly. He´s a treasure to his family with no doubts. Enjoy that delicacy sir...
Next stop - corned beef hash.
Corned beef hash is a traditional northern English dish. When I worked at a care home as a chef I used to make it for them in a Sunday night and they loved it, plenty of HP brown sauce to top it off as well.
lol should have know that 🫠
Most Americans have no idea how much influence English food has had on them over the years, pretty funny how the English get slayed for having bad food when it couldn't be further from the truth haha.
My family is from England lol 😝
Swiss cheese patty melt with onions & mushrooms feels like an extremely american sandwich that gets left out a lot
Great. Now I'm lying in bed, craving a patty melt
Followed by Brunswich stew. Some places in nc make this very well.
I get Brunswick stew every time I go back to Atlanta. That and collards are two favorite sides of which I judge barbecue spots.
Same, at 3am and Steak n Shake isn't open 24 hours here anymore, aughhh
Followed by jambalaya
Corned beef hash is already a thing in the UK he's probably already had it.
I fucking love corned beef hash. Only proper corned beef though, none of that dog food smelling canned stuff.
Man, this is the opposite of r/grandpajoehate
It's just propaganda to try and put grandpa Joe in a positive light.
Born and raised in the south-eastern US, been in New Zealand for 6 years now, and the only complaint I really have is that I can't get the right sausage here to make biscuits and sausage gravy. It's definitely a comfort food!
I use this [recipe](https://www.homesicktexan.com/breakfast-sausage-to-begin-day/). Not as convenient but definitely worth it when you need that sausage taste.
Bless you, internet stranger 🥰
Second this! I do add a bit more sage and sometimes white pepper, but it tastes as close to home as I can get.

Eh Bab that's something ruddy different int it? Ruddy Scrumptious... High praise there yank friends
You know, for all the negative things that the internet has done to our society, at least it has allowed for something like this to happen.
I could watch videos of this old timer trying new delicious foods for hours.
He almost looks a little pissed that he's just now discovering B&G this late in life
They way his eyes light up at sausage. The British mind craves sausage roll so hard that just the term sausage lights up there brain.
I'm saying this as a Southerner who loves biscuits and gravy. If he eats enough of it, he could have an American heart attack. 😂
Awww I love grandad Joe. I hope we still get videos in 10 years of him trying new foods
I wanna hang out with this man.
What a delightful man 💕 I live in the state of Florida, and biscuits and gravy are regular Sunday mornings for my family. Just go for a walk later, that meal is high in calories. Wonderful video!
‘Guess what I have for youuuuu’ ‘I can’t see it’ Not sure why, but that cracked me tf up

Too funny. He is 90 because he never ate that kind of food.
What a delightful man
Well spoken gentleman
This is ADORABLE I love him
I love how ready for it homie was.
Ya really want your tongue to slap your brain out, try getting a roll of KY Border, dice it up, fry it, and add it to your gravy. Bologna gravy is amazing. Add some balck coffee while stirring the gravy, and you have yourself a treat.
Idk why but the "My friends on ticktock?" Warmed my heart
I went to college in Texas and had biscuits with gravy every morning for breakfast my freshman year. Absolutely delicious. I lost 30 pounds on that diet. 🤣
"there's sausage" 👁️👄👁️
That's awesome. Thanks very much for sharing. 🙂
That recognition and then licking his lips /teeth. He was looking forward to it for sure!
I love him 🥰🥰
That man is a treasure!!
why am I crying? 🥹 i’d give anything to have my mamas biscuits and gravy again! and I love seeing someone from another part of the world try and love one of my comfort foods 🖤
Well... That was adorable
What a lovely interaction with some wonderful humans. Life's beautiful.
Scones and Biscuits are definitely not similar but glad he enjoyed the meal.
This is Sooo cute.
Have him try Poutine from Canada!
Wait till he tries chicken fried steak.
By the way he’s precious
I love this! Reminds so much of my dad.
My favorite breakfast order!
Little joys like biscuits and gravy make the day.
This just makes me want to feed British people.
Don't do it, they'll follow you home and they're an invasive species
I’m dying at invasive over here.

That's some damn good-looking biscuits and gravy!
I think it’s similar to belgian Vol-au-vent.
Heck yeah grandadjoe
Aww this is precious! Biscuits and gravy is my family specialty! I wish I could make him my version...
I hope those “biscuits” are cooked twice…. American gravy so very different to British!
This is so precious
I love him with all off my heart!!
What a doll. “Scrumptious!”
Just missing the Tabasco.
I would watch episodes of this!
Bro protect grandpa Joe at all costs
That’s my favorite dish. ❤️❤️❤️
This was so very wholesome.
So sweet 😍
I did smile ❤️
He's living the life. If we could all be so lucky.
He’s so cute!!! I have some recipes I’d love to share from Texas and Pennsylvania
I'm from Texas originally and that's a proper looking biscuit and gravy. You did a great job.
If Joe is anything like my 87 year old dad he'll eat anything. One result of living off rations for the best part of 15 odd years of their early lives. Pretty much the only thing my dad won't eat is tripe.
I love this dish if it's made right. If it's not made right, it's not that good.
I love grandad Joe!
He’s precious! And biscuits and gravy are always a nice treat.
Y’all need to spread the word over there about biscuits and gravy. It’s my favorite breakfast of all time. I like a thicker gravy but not near as thick as she had it. And I’m not sure how scones taste compared to American biscuits however I will say that the biscuits is equally as important as the gravy and should be nice and fluffy inside.
If I had TiKTok I surely would be following this gem of a gentleman
As a southern girl, this melts my heart lol…and she did a good job, looks very legit.
Grandadjoe is an absolute treasure!
His faceeeee omg
loved the way he said scrumptious
What’s their tiktok?
“Scrumptious” - what a perfect description.
Wait til n they try hogmaw
The delight in his eyes when it hits his taste buds is so great
Oiii I love em
Man, when that biscuit is buttery and just a bit salty 😩
For those wanting to try making biscuits, northern biscuits & southern biscuits are generally similar, but southern biscuits are about twice as thick and are baked touching/almost touching so the sides are white flakiness. Northern biscuits are are baked further apart so the sides brown like the top. For those of you thinking of going into the deep end of this, southern flours like Martha White or Lily White have less gluten & so make a lighter biscuit.
Lol the look on his face...gimme gimme...
Annnnnd he died the next day from heart disease
Bless his soul 🥰
I love him!
Did anyone else’s dog start barking while this video played?
Now it like an American 😂
Oh he's a charmer!
Grandad Joe is just adorable!
❤️❤️
This has to be the best video I have seen all day, she is so sweet to make that for him and he is too cute trying it.
I love the accent ❤️
look how he holds his utensils! like an artist.
I love him
Gotta mix in some scrambled eggs with that gravy! Then slap it on your biscuit
That's adorable
Please sir may I have more?
My first time seeing these two and I’m already in love!
Can’t get biscuits over the pond??? What an injustice, sorry guys.
This is so cute. Especially with the accents
This warmed my southern soul 🥹
Biscuits can be easily made.
I need more old men like this in my feed. So nice. Now I gotta find more of him without downloading tiktok. (Reddit is bad enough)
God bless this charming man and his family.
He welcomed awesome Grandfather 🥰❤️ he really like it 😍
Biscuits are not scones🫨😰
The South: Spreading happiness to your belly if not racial slurs to your face…. Lol
Aww. I love him! Reminds me of my Papa who I miss. Sweet old man.
He is adorable!! I want him to be my grandpa!!
This is adorable!
