Red Eye Gravy
Red Eye Gravy, also known as poor manโs gravy or red ham gravy, is an instantly recognizable Southern staple. Some folks even throw in a little red pepper to make it redder. But with this recipe, you just mix everything in the skillet and generously pour over your ham and biscuitsโor wherever you like it best.
