The Tunisian Guy Was Able to Defuse the Situation

In the southern US they would start this gravy with some like pork sausage or some bacon drippings but because I'm Muslim and I don't eat pork, I'm going instead with Mariguez. You could do this basic concept with any fatty meat that you've got or even some like soy based imitation sausage crumbles. What's most important is that we've got a lot of rendered fat into the pan into which we can whisk our flour to make the roux for the milk gravy that traditionally they spoon over biscuits in places like Tennessee. That's all the Tunisian guy had to say and he's able to keep you on board. He has seen you. He's acknowledged your tradition
