country ham drippings
1 c. perked coffee

After frying country ham slices, remove ham from skillet. Pour one cup fresh perked coffee into the ham drippings. Let simmer for 1 minute, then pour off into a bowl. The dark liquid that settles to the bottom is "red eye" gravy. A great topping for fresh hot biscuits or ham. When serving, dip from the bottom of the bowl.
