Sweet Red-Eye Gravy

Y'all, seriously though, try this. This is definitely not health food, but daaaaaammmnnn it's good!

RED-EYE GRAVY

• Country ham steak
• Coffee Syrup

Start with a big piece of country ham (or a ham steak, for us Northerners). Fry that baby up in a hot pan (maybe even with a little extra oil). Once nice and sizzled, remove it from the pan. To those precious drippings left in the pan, stir in some Coffee Syrup - about half the amount of drippings. Simmer on medium heat for about one minute, stirring constantly. There may not be much, but a little goes a long way.

 

Drizzle the "gravy" over your ham, your potatoes, your broccoli (to be healthy), your significant other, everything!! :)
