"Cracker Barrel is known for its homestyle Southern food, serving up classics like meatloaf, country fried chicken, and its iconic dumplings. You can get breakfast, lunch, or dinner at Cracker Barrel, and there are lots of delicious breakfast items available on its menu. However, one classic that may seem like a safe choice is actually the worst breakfast item Cracker Barrel offers: biscuits and gravy."
"They were too salty and incredibly smoky, as the little sausage bits included in them were poorly flavored. The gravy didn't impress in the texture department either, as it was thin and watery rather than nicely thick and creamy. We compared it to Alabama BBQ sauce - and while that sauce can be delicious, it is not well-suited to a biscuit, especially one as dry as Cracker Barrel's. Overall, the biscuits and gravy were a complete flop."
"If you're getting breakfast at Cracker Barrel, there are many better menu options than the biscuits and gravy. Our pick for the best Cracker Barrel breakfast item was its buttermilk pancakes, which we praised heavily, saying they could be eaten with no syrup. However, we didn't have anything nearly as bad to say about any breakfast dish compared to the biscuits and gravy."
Cracker Barrel serves homestyle Southern breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Biscuits and gravy perform poorly compared with other breakfast items. The biscuits are often overcooked, dry, and stiff. The gravy is overly salty and has an intense smoky flavor from poorly flavored sausage bits. The gravy is thin and watery rather than thick and creamy, making the pairing with the dry biscuits especially unfavorable. Buttermilk pancakes are a much stronger breakfast choice and can be eaten without syrup. Other breakfast items generally outperform the biscuits and gravy. Avoid ordering the biscuits and gravy for breakfast.
