Red-eye gravy is amazing (and very simple) if you make it right. There are more complex recipes, but the one I use is three ingredients.
Step 1) Cook pork (bacon, country ham, etc) in pan
Step 2) Remove meat
Step 3) Add 1-2 cups weak-ish coffee (Unless you want straight coffee taste)
Step 4) Reduce heat
Step 5) Whisk in flour to thicken
Serve drizzled on top of pork product, potatoes, etc.
Some variants add spices like cayenne and paprika, so feel free to experiment.
