Instructions

  1. Pull the sausage and milk out of the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking so that they can come to room temperature.
  2. Preheat a medium-large sauté pan over medium to medium-high heat.
  3. Cut the sausage in half so you have two thin squares. Brown one side of each square in the heated pan for 3 minutes, flip, and brown the other side for 3 minutes.
  4. Break up the sausage into the size of meat chunks you want to eat and continue to stir and cook until no longer pink, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Add the butter and stir until melted.
  6. Sprinkle half the flour over the meat and stir for 1 minute. Sprinkle the other half of the flour over the meat and stir for 2 minutes.
  7. Add the garlic powder, smoked paprika, and sage and stir for 1-2 more minutes, until the flour looks like it has dissolved and the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat.
  8. Slowly add 1 cup of the milk while stirring and continue to stir until smooth. Slowly add the 2 remaining cups of milk while stirring and continue to stir until smooth.
  9. Add the salt and sugar and stir to combine.
  10. Increase heat to medium-high to high and bring to boil, stirring often.
  11. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes, stirring often.
  12. Season with pepper and any additional salt to taste. Then serve immediately.

Notes

  • If the gravy thickens too much, add 1/2 cup milk, stir, and cook for a couple of minutes to thin the gravy out. If it’s still too thick, add another 1/2 cup milk and do the same thing.
  • If not serving right away, keep the gravy in the pan turned onto the lowest setting to keep it warm until you’re ready to serve.
  • Allow the milk to come to room temperature before adding to the gravy to avoid lumps in the gravy.
  • Store any leftover gravy in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days.
