I recently traveled back home and had the pleasure of dining at this awesome restaurant in my hometown called Eats on 8th located in historic downtown Georgetown. I ordered the biscuits and green chile gravy. It was the most wonderful spin off of the traditional biscuits and gravy dish we all know and love! So, of course when I got home I had to find a recipe to try and recreate this fantastic breakfast meal. I ended up coming across this easy to follow biscuits and green chile gravy recipe from Jones Dairy Farm. I used my own biscuit recipe, but y'all can use whatever biscuit recipe you please or the one I have provided below.
