DEEP FRIED PORK CHOPS & GRAVY

Ms. Goofy and I were having a couple of burgers at a local hamburger joint. The breakfast menu was included with the list of burgers and accompaniments. One thing that caught our eye was the deep fried pork chops. Could it be true? We finished our meal and vowed to return in the name of research.

Fast forward a couple of days to this morning. We return to "The Original Red Onion" and the first sight is a Cook standing over a full griddle of bacon. So far, so good. Will they really have deep fried pork chops? The chops are ordered. Can I have gravy on those pork chops. "Sure!". The staff is cheerful and friendly. You cannot have an empty coffee cup. The humongous plate was hauled to our table. Two breaded deep fried pork chops, home fries, and two eggs all smothered in cream gravy were lowered onto the table. They include your choice of toast so you will have something to sop up all the extra gravy. Can it get any better? This was everything the doctor ordered. Sometimes in life it is all about the gravy!

IT'S THE GRAVY MAN!

You know its the Gravy Man. It is an art to make gravy. Gravy makes the World go round. What does not go with gravy? Have you ever had leftovers from Thanksgiving? You know gravy is the ingredient that you are craving. Ms. Goofy was in charge of the gravy. We used a Pork Rib Roast. It was roasted in the Chilebrown fire cave. There was a pan that caught all the drippings and Love. Ms. Goofy added her secret ingredients and stirred to the Boys and I were begging.

Gravy, Gravy, Gravy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT'S THE GRAVY MAN !

We are cooking our bird on the grill. This has worked for us for years. The only problem is the gravy. Wood chips and ashes usually make it to our dripping pan. The turkey drippings are laced with harsh and bitter remnants. Gravy is one of the best components of Thanksgiving. It is a link to gather all the parts of the meal together. Jello salad and pumpkin pie can be kicked up a notch with a little spot of gravy. Gravy makes the world go round.
The culprit used was picked up at Trader Joe's. Boxed Gravy, I am so sorry, Dr. Biggles, to let you down. Every thing will be so good. I am a gravy looser!!!!!
