Red-eye gravy [Was: Re: [at-l] Re: The "Grit" Debate]



Now that brings up another discussion -- what is red-eye-gravy?

I have ordered it in restaurants and have them serve anything from plain milk 
gravy to sawmill gravy.

To me it is a little coffee mixed into the grease left from frying true 
salt-cured ham (Not this pale imitation sold in store today, which requires 
refrigeration.).  Some folk mixed a bit of flour into the hot grease before 
adding the coffee.  That was OK also.
