I am *not* a fan of the classic "American Breakfast."

My dad grew up in England and my grandma would make Yorkshire pudding for Thanksgiving. I remember it being very tasty, but have never been able to find adequate substitutes to make it without using meat drippings. It won't puff up right.

So your biscuits are scones LOL We have them with cream and jam.
Confused re Gravy = sauce ?

Use lard for yorkies but any bun tin containing very hot oil, smoking! will do the trick, really! Have a go, yum!

I don't know if I would say they are quite comparable to scones. (at least not the ones I've had at tea houses, but those might just be an Americanized version) Scones to me are a bit more crumbly, and sweeter.
Biscuits (unless they are overdone) are usually softer and fluffier, and not as inherently sweet.

As for gravy, yeah I would say sauce is fairly accurate. fairly thick consistency for a liquid, usually has a turkey/sausage flavoring base.
Usually we just cover the biscuits in it ^_^

Ah Scones are also savoury thus the suggestion of adding cheese and obviously no sugar.

So would this suit you better Scott? The Full English LOL?

Cajun cuisine of New Orleans Louisiana is a treat. My favorite is a catfish 'Po Boy with sweet potato fries:

Must leave room for a dessert of Beignets* and hot chocolate!

*Deep fried blobs of dough, coated with enough powdered sugar to induce a coma! Some varieties are filled with fruit jam.

For Breakfast, that's some constitution! LOL

For Breakfast, that's some constitution! LOL

There is a local and very popular restaurant that offers "all you can eat" breakfast meats* with the meal, the only restriction being you cannot order a final portion and ask for it to be packaged "to go!!"

My breakfast, believe it or not, consists of eating exactly what my birds have for chop. On the off-days when chop is not prepared, it is cereal-based, either hot or cold. Frankly, I could easily eat leftover Chinese or Italian food for breakfast!!


*any combination of ham, bacon, sausage, schnitzel.

Classic Americana from the state of Colorado is the *ahem* Rocky Mountain Oyster." Since the only oysters in that region are transplanted via air or land, the term is a misnomer. The "oyster" is actually from a bull....... :24_shocke

Porkroll, egg and cheese on a plain bagel, from my home state of NJ (and enjoyed by the surrounding areas, preferrably accompanied by Wawa coffee)

And, from my Slovak heritage that I grew up eating, halusky. Two kinds, one with farmer's cheese (my favorite) and the other with cabbage. They're essentially potato dumplings, definitely my top comfort food.
