I would prefer some of the whiskey liqueur - anybody know where it can be found in Taiwan?
Whisky liqueur⌠?
I thought Southern Comfort was spiced rum.

Nope. Made with Bourbon.
Try Breeze Super.
Last bottle I found was at KEGS bottle shop chain outlet.

Boy the biscuits and gravy sound good.
I posted a breakfast sausage easy recipe before. I crumble some of that into a pan and fry it withsome garlic. Add about 2 cups of milk and mix about 2 heaping Tablespoons of flour with some cold milk in a bowl. Stir with a fork until the flour is disolved. After the sausage and the milk in the pan is bubbling along, slowly add the cold milk mixed with the flour. Allow it to come to a boil again while stirring continuously. It will thicken to a great sausage gravy. You may need to adjust the quantity of milk and flour to make it as thick or thin as you like.
I like to make my biscuits using the bacon grease left over after frying a couple packages of bacon. Use any of the biscuit recipes that you like or find one online. The bacon grease adds that little extra smoky tang that I like. Also, I like to add a little more sugar than usually suggested.
Used to be a Sunday am staple. I guess I am making myself hungry.

What I do is fry the sausage, remove the meat, and crank the heat up. To the brownings Iâd add a tablespoon or so of fresh butter. Once the water has boiled out of the butter/grease mixture, add dry, seasoned flour (seasoned with a pinch of cayenne, a pinch of thyme, and black pepper). Fry while stirring the flour mixture until itâs brown and just beginning to smell overbooked, about three minutes. Turn the heat all the way up. Then whisk in room-temp whole milk until the gravy is a little thinner than youâd like (itâll thicken as it cools) and just barely boils. Remove from heat.
Takes practice, but damn itâs fine eatinâ over your biscuits.
What you guys are cooking up is sausage gravey. Itâs always a must to remove the meat first. I like to make my gravey roux with bacon greaseâlove the flavorâbut sausage works, too. Flour and seasonings to taste in the hot grease, roux it up good, add milk and stir until itâs, as was said, just a bit thinner than youâd like. If you do it well, youâll have no lumps and perfect gravey! Add sausage back to pan and stir in for sausage gravey.
If you donât want to do the biscuits, you can lightly toast some bread and do a great SOS!
Yes, good stuff! I was missing it yesterday and made some for dinner. Iâm not supposed to eat this way any more, but oh, momma, that was good!
PSâNEVER throw out bacon grease! There are so MANY wonderful things to so with it!
Yeah, I ainât met many GRITS who didnât learn young and well how to cook up good sausage gravy. Fried chicken gravy, too. And biscuits from scratch.
Damn Iâm hungry now!

Shouldnât this be in D&R??
Oh yeah, the bacon grease. Always in the back of the fridge in a weird container like a coffee can, or a mixed-nuts can, or some other camouflage thatâll have you goin WTF? when you fish it out.
Lookin for some pecans late at night, I know I saw a can of em in the fridge, there that rascal is - WTF?
But yeah, donât throw that stuff out!
I got tears in my eyes readinâ thisâŚnext thing is iron skillets and cornbreadâŚbreakfast wherefore art thou⌠:lick:

Please stop this thread thread immediately. I see where it is going. My nostalgia and hunger will double team me. They will kill me. Two words. Hush Puppies. And I donât mean those stupid kids shoes or the 9mm pistols they issued in spec-op forces with sound suppressors to take out sentry dogs and skirt the Geneva convention. I mean these.
2 cups yellow corn meal
1 cup plain flour (flour is what gave it the
lighter taste and you can experiment with the
amount you use if you want)
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk (you can also use plain milk in
a pinch, but nothing compares to buttermilk)
3/4 teaspoon seasoned salt. I use Lowreys but just
about any brand will work as you are just looking
for something to spice things up a little
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper blend (again, the idea
is to spice things up a little).
1 teaspoon baking powder
2/3 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 cup bacon grease. This is another big key to
the flavor. In a pinch you can use other types
of cooking oil, but bacon is my favorite.
You also need some type of cooking oil to deep fry
these in. I usually use Crisco oil although peanut oil
and some of the lower fat oils work well too.
Mix all of the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add your
eggs, oil, and buttermilk. Stir it all up until
the flavors are thoroughly blended.
Turn your cooker on medium-high heat. When itâs
hot you can drop your hush puppies in using a
table spoon. Allow them to brown on all sides.
They should begin floating when done, but if they
donât, donât overcook them.
Serve as a side dish with just about any meal. I
loved eating them with fried catfish or fresh
chopped or pulled pork barbecue. Most of the local
resturants added them as a standard feature when you
bought plate meal
Hey Dragonbones didnât you say you wanted someone to help you carry some refrigerators upstairs and bury some bodies? Hint.Hint.Nudge.Nudge.

I was thinking The Morgue. 
Breeze supermarket usually stocks Southern Comfort, and some Drinks outlets have it from time to time. The one in Xi-Men-Ding stocks it fairly regularly.
