[rec.food.recipes] MEAT: Red-Eye Gravy

cb14@prism.gatech.edu (Debbie Bragg) (05/14/91)

I have just seen some recipes that called for flour in red eye gravy.
I have never heard of any one making red eye gravy using flour.  The
way my family makes it is as follows:

drippings from 1 lb. sausage or ham (about 1/3 cup)

After drippings have cooled down for a couple of minutes, carefully
pour about 1 and 1/2 cups strong coffee into the frying pan and bring
to a rolling boil add a small amount of salt and black pepper.  All
done!  Serve with grits, scrambled eggs and hot biscuits.

Yum-yum!
