Country Fried Steak - Biscuits & Gravy

[El Gato]

Does anyone know if there is a place down here where you can get real old fashioned wonderful Country Fried Steak and Biscuits & Gravy? My southern DH is really missing it and it is not something I'm very efficient at making

Would it help if I gave you my momma's recipe? They're deeelish!

DH's Mother was one of the greatest cooks - I was her assistant but I never could do it quite like she did. And, oh could she cook a wonderful pie! She was a boarding house cook when DH was growing up and no one ever missed her meals - talk about comfort food.

Cook up a bunch of sausage and set it aside, leaving the sausage grease and some small chunks of sausage in the skillet. Stir some flour into cold milk until it dissolves into a paste and pour it into the hot skillet and start stirring immediately, adding a little more milk as you stir. Pretty quickly it will start looking like gravy. Hammer it with salt and pepper, then pour it over the biscuits you just took out of the oven and eat it with fried eggs and the rest of the sausage. Chase it with an aspirin and don't forget your Zocor before you go to bed.

For country fried steak or pork chops, just dredge the meat in flour and toss it in a skillet with oil. If you want a thicker coat, dip the meat in a beaten egg before putting it in the flour. Don't forget to add lots of salt and pepper. Make gravy the same as with the sausage except it isnt necessary to leave in any chunks of meat.

I've had to learn how make my favorite artery cloggers because my wife refuses to make (or eat) that kind of stuff anymore.

The hardest part will probably be finding gringo sausage in Rocky Point unless you bring it with you. It just wouldn't be the same with chorizo.

You can get gringo sausage at CS restaurant supply but it really is Italian. As well Walter Malchou from German part of Mexico is making real German brats and sells them from his home on the weekends. He lives by Reggies but actually on Freemont. They are out of this world.
