Notes

How to add more flavor to biscuits and gravy.

If you want a little extra flavor, let the sausage cook a little longer on the sauté mode. The sausage will start to get crispy and brown and will add more flavor. Just be sure to scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the pot before pressure cooking. You can also add a little butter to the biscuits or pour a little maple syrup on top!

Where do you get bacon grease?

I save all of my extra grease from cooking bacon in a sealed mason jar in the refrigerator that way I have it ready to go to add extra flavor to dishes. Add a tablespoon or so when cooking steak or veggies! It adds a ton of extra flavor!

What do biscuits and gravy go with?

We usually eat biscuits and gravy for breakfast so we normally serve them with a side of bacon and eggs. Since the biscuits and gravy are quite heavy, I'd recommend serving with something a little lighter like fresh fruit.
