I've made this before while camping, it's becoming one of my favorites.

I started by browning some spicy sausage on the fire...

while the sausage browned I made biscuits...

:doh: forgot to bring my rolling pin, so I grabbed the next best thing. :redface:
I did wash the bottle first. :)

after rolling the dough out, I slathered it with bacon drippings then sprinkled cooked crisp bacon on top...

I let the gravy thicken but kept it on the thin side...

then flattened the bacon biscuits to about 1 1/2" or so... for even, fast cooking.
placed them on top of the sausage gravy...

into the tractor rim...

shoveled a few hot coals on top and let er go for about 25 minutes..
I rotated the lid and the whole pot every 10 minutes for even cooking.

I really like the bacon drippings brushed on the dough, adds a lot of flavor.

Not a fancy breakfast but it was fairly quick to make.....and very filling. :)


Thanks for looking!
 
Oh hell yeah! Stealing this one for sure and it will be on the menu for the first camping trip of spring, and probably a test run or two here at the house. Always looking for an excuse for a fire in the yard!

HOG FAN, Thanks!! They cook fast and are pretty tasty. Hope you have great luck with em.
:thumb: on the fire in the yard too. :grin:
 
That looks terrific as always! The biscuit is even smiling from the bacon in the second to last pic!
 
Looks like you have a pretty sweet camp site to kick back and cook at too!

Thanks MisterChrister, I hadn't noticed that before. :becky:

It was pretty cold this time but I like being right beside the water. Just in case the fish are biting. :biggrin1:

O. M. G. I'm hooked. Must give this a try. That looks fantastic.
Thank you!! This time I used a biscuit mix, it was quick and easy. :thumb:
 
It too is becoming one of favorites. Excellent as always Jeanie!
 
Thank you Pmad and Sako!
Sako, I'd trade you for some of those nachos. They looked amazing! :mrgreen:
 
What's in the gravy? Sausage, all purpose flour ... In the last couple of photos what I assume is the gravy looks like fluffy rice or a stuffing rather than what I (an Australian) recognise as gravy?

Looks awesome might have to get myself a big pot like that one.
 
Man I love sausage gravy, hell even just gravy, and bacon, and everything else you cook. I can't help but to think if we were married I'd be dead by now. On the bright side I'd die richer because I could just sell all my cookers and let you cook for me. :-D
 
Jen.... That looks amazing.... I am sure you fad some happy campers...:)... I sure would have been.. I would have tag along for the eats alone!!! You always do it up!!!!
 
That's a mighty fine lookin' breakfast right there. Never thought of cooking biscuits with chunks of bacon in them but it's a great idea! Thanks for sharing it with us.
