Ingredients
For the Sausage Gravy
- 1 lb. bulk pork breakfast sausage
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 ¼ cups whole milk, warmed
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley
- For serving: biscuits (use canned or frozen biscuits for a shortcut, or try Aunt Bee's 3-ingredient biscuit recipe for an easy homemade option)
Instructions
- Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. When the sausage is no longer pink, use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked sausage to a plate lined with paper towels (leave the drippings in the skillet). You should have about ¼ cup of drippings. If your sausage is leaner, melt enough butter in the skillet to equal ¼ cup of fat.
- Whisk the flour into the hot drippings until smooth. Cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, whisking constantly.
- Slowly whisk in the milk and cook for 3-5 more minutes, whisking constantly, until thick and bubbly. Stir in the cooked sausage; season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Split the biscuits in half and spoon gravy over top.
Notes
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the sausage gravy in advance, transfer it to an airtight container, and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. The gravy will thicken a lot as it cools, so you'll need to gradually whisk in some extra milk as you gently reheat the gravy over low heat on the stovetop.
