Here is the scoop on American BBQ. Sorry. It isn't the same as English BBQ.

Memphis barbecue was our favourite. I like hush puppies with.

Shrimp and grits was a wonderful treat. I adore grits.

I make pulled pork every Christmas, it’s the easiest thing to make.

Pulled Pork barbecue is quite easy and delicious.

I don't have experience of American recipes. However, I would love to visit the old fashioned diners I see on TV.
To the op, sorry some of the comments are a bit negative.

On Pancakes and probably ice cream too.

I have a bottle of maple syrup if anyone wants one?
It’s about six years old, unopened, came in a Christmas hamper.

Delicious on porridge.

Sorry. Butter for the biscuits.

Here is the very simple sausage gravy recipe for biscuits and gravy.

I think I saw she had a homemade biscuit recipe linked.

Use butter rather than bacon fat. I also drain off some of the pork fat when making the roux.

The gravy is best, IMO, with black pepper and salt as seasoning. A good pork breakfast sausage has enough seasoning in it.

Quite different!

Some of the steakhouses have amazing steak, and cheesecake from the cheesecake factory if I’m being unhealthy, but I can get that from Costco anyway.

Steak is very expensive often $40+ tax+tip. If you pay by card the tip options are 15, 20, 25%.
Maybe it’s the value of sterling but it seemed so much more affordable 20 yrs ago.

Re barbecues ( which might have originated in South Africa?): my Floridian friends were firm on the difference between a barbecue and a cook out .
No, I never understood it.

Yes. My grandson likes the ginger beer in particular. 👍

And let's not forget Bundaberg Ginger Beer too - it's beaut !

Magenta8 this is pretty good.
Bought at Sainsbury's

Thst's Australian gold, my friend!
There's Bundaberg rum, too, if you want something stronger.

I remember being served a sort of semi savory thick biscuit, with my meat dish.
Don’t forget the Americans have marshmallows with their turkey. Each country to their own traditions.

I have nothing to add but haven't had Key Lime Pie for ages and I miss it...could really eat a slice right now!

Cajun food ,I would love to eat in New Orleans.

It's a drink rather than food, root beer. McDonalds used to sell it a long time ago. It tastes like fizzy cough linctus - delicious.

Deep fried breadcrumbed green beans. Pecan pancakes. The best tuna I’ve ever tasted, hash brown casserole.

I lived in US for 2 years. Still miss Sloppy Joes,not same making them here...still miss DQ and my chocolate fudge sundae

Well we don't eat biscuits with sauce so you'll never find the right ingredients I doubt. There's no Chicago either so there's no pizzas. And any slow cooker can make pulled pork that's nothing special lol

In San Francisco last year we did find a traditional Diner that did serve decent food, they do exist, a big improvement on the trash disguised as fast food.

Very hard to find in the U.K.
