Louisiana is gravy country
Kentucky is gravy country.
Texas is gravy country.

As you traverse the upper end of the South, make your way down into Dixie and then head out west to the Great State, you’ll find dozens of regional variations on this simple, humble sauce. We pour it over our chicken fried steak, we fry up Jimmy Dean sausage and make a gravy that’s perfect for our biscuits; and a bowl of mashed potatoes served without gravy? That might just find the cook on the business end of a rusty shank. Gravy is serious business.
