Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/4 pounds ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon sage ground
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2-3 tablespoons butter (optional)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups milk warmed, whole
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch optional
  • 2 teaspoons water optional

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground pork in a skillet over medium-heat.
  2. As the pork browns, add the ginger, sage, salt and pepper.
  3. Once the pork is crumbled and browned, remove it from the skillet to a bowl and set aside.
  4. You'll needs about 3 tablespoons of fat in the skillet after you cook the meat. If your pork is lean, you may need to add tablespoons of butter to equal about 3 tablespoons total of fat.
  5. In the skillet over medium heat, add flour to drippings/butter and mix it well. 
  6. Slowly add the warm milk, whisking constantly until the gravy starts to thicken, about 10-15 minutes.**
  7. Add the sausage back into the skillet and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sausage gravy simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring often.
  8. Serve warm over hot biscuits. 

Notes

  • *If the gravy is not getting as thick as you'd like, whisk together two teaspoons of cornstarch and two teaspoons of water in a small cup. Drizzle the mixture into the gravy and stir. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the gravy has thickened.
  • **The calories shown are based on the recipe making about 4 cups of gravy, with 1 serving being 1/2 cup of gravy. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate.
