Grew up in Texas and I can count on one hand places I've visited north of the Mason Dixon that make a good biscuit, not even getting into the gravy yet. So that said... I make it myself, same as my brisket. Seriously simple recipe and doesn't take that long to make. My recipe started with these two:
Biscuits[^]
Gravy[^]

There is one place around where I live now that I trust but only if I'm desperate for a fix. Arby's and Hardees' are eh, although Chick-Fil-A biscuits are actually pretty decent. No gravy there though.

Biggest problem is the wheat used is all wrong, needs to be a soft red winter wheat. Seriously, try a McDonald's biscuit in the south vs the north. They are quite different. Second common mistake is over-mixing the dough, so instead of fluffy they are hockey pucks.

The gravy should not be healthy. I use lard or at the very least the drippings from whatever sausage I'm putting in. It is the same for my chicken fried steak gravy. Whole milk or if I'm feeling decadent I opt for heavy cream of half and half.
