Top Your Biscuits With Grandma’s Old-Fashioned Chocolate Gravy

88 Comments By 

For more than 30 years, Henderson County Farm Bureau member Gail Hunley Horine and her family have been perfecting their old-fashioned chocolate gravy recipe in Lexington, Tennessee.

What started as a hobby of selling chocolate gravy mix to friends and family back in 1986 grew into a family business to meet the increasing demand. Today, Grandma’s Old Fashioned Chocolate Gravy Mix is available to purchase online and at various retailers across West Tennessee.
