What is Red-Eyes Gravy?
It is a coffee-based gravy that is rich and dark, usually combined in the South with country ham or flavored with bacon drippings. An interesting story involved Mark Twain, who is said to have named the gravy when dining with a friend one morning. It seems that a cook delivered plates to Mr. Twain’s table personally. Looking up, the great humorist commented, “That cook’s eyes are as red as this gravy is black? And the gravy was known as “red-eye” from that point on!
