Biscuits and gravy on the Breeze?

I had them on the Sunshine in September. It was not typical southern sausage gravy and buttermilk biscuits.

 

The gravy was ok, but bland. The biscuits were terrible. Very dense and tough.

Sounds like what I had on NCL. You could bounce the biscuits off of the wall and they wouldn't even crack.:eek:

If you're from the south, you'll love them....biscuits and sausage gravy..yum!

 

If they were from the South they would already know what they are. :roll eyes: If the biscuits are light and fluffy and the gravy has an adequate amt. of good sausage and is seasoned well, they are tasty. Like many foods, if not made well with good ingredients, biscuits and gravy are dreadful. I suspect cruise ship biscuits and gravy might fall into the latter category. ;):)

Getting closer to our cruise. Has anyone tried these yet?

 

On my cruise on the Sunshine in October I saw the biscuits and they were so overdone and hard as a rock that I didn't bother with the gravy. I love biscuits and gravy but I think this is a fail.

They still cant make good cornbread, so I don't think they will do biscuits and gravy well either. JMO, and I am a northerner, so I can live without both, but I do enjoy good cornbread and a good biscuit (sans gravy);):D

I am afraid they would probably destroy them. Not just anyone can make biscuits and gravy right.

 

I was on an NCL cruise and they had biscuits and gravy and they were the worst I have ever eaten.

 

NCL makes the worst biscuts....nothing can save those...not even excellent gravy.

I expect the gravy to be made by adding water to a powder of some sort and don't hold out much hope that it'll be any good. That being said, I hope I'm wrong.

 

You would be surprised that a lot of places use a gallon can of prepared sausage gravy. Then they add their own fresh sausage that has already been cooked, leave a little grease in, you can't tell the difference.

 

I embarrassed myself, a time that I made us pass up a comp breakfast before leaving to come home from a casino. Husband is from New Jersey, me, Texas. I know the casino gravy tastes like paste so insisted we stop at a cracker barrel on the way home. It was just as bad! He never knew as won't eat red neck food, but I knew and never mentioned it.:o

LOL! I was just going to post the same thing. Just came off the BA 2 weeks ago and no matter how much I doctored up the stuff I couldn't get it to the point of being edible! The biscuits were dry and tasteless. The gravy tasted raw flour and water. So gross.
