NEXT RECIPE:  BUTTERMILK SCONES

BISCUITS AND SAUSAGE GRAVY 
8 buttermilk biscuits
3/4 pound of sausage (fatty sausage works best for this)
4 cups of milk
4-8 tablespoons flour

Prepare biscuits as instructed on package. Brown sausage in skillet. As soon as sausage is completely brown, turn to medium heat. Add flour by the tablespoon, stirring constantly. Let the flour turn BROWN before adding another tablespoon (if you don't, your gravy will taste like flour). After you have added enough flour to make the gravy as thick as you like, add milk and stir with whisk.

Serve over biscuits.

Forgot to mention, Grandmother used Sausage Gravy over pancakes. A real winner when biscuits are not an option. In fact, I prefer Pancakes to biscuits, as did my dad.

Fabulous! Made this gravy with Grandma's Buttermilk Biscuits recipe from this site. I was a little nervous when I put in all the milk, but this finished wonderfully. Add fresh ground pepper and you're good to go!

Try using a can of evaporated milk in place of some of the milk for a richer flavor. I add a couple of tablespoons of real maple syrup for a slightly sweet flavor.

Great recipe. Pretty much followed instructions exactly. Used 1 lb of Jimmy Dean Sausage Original and added black pepper. Simple and fast.

Great easy recipe. Used Stater Bro's spicy sausage, comes out with a red tinge but tastes great.

What not to do lol: if you live in Canada, forget it. Can't get good sausage in Canada. Bought breakfast sausage links who's cooking instructions included "add water to steam" so pan was dry when I added flour, which I then waited to turn brown, which didn't happen, and turned the sausage into flour coated mess (I should have deep fried sausage) lol. Will try this again with Jimmy Dean sausage and keep it greasy. Good luck.

Salt and pepper the sausage as you add the flour. This makes all the difference to the flavor of the finished gravy. If you are serving it over time, or if it is going to sit, add a tablespoon of cornstrach to the milk and the gravy will hold better.

Absolutely perfect! The perfect combo for our family is 6tbsp of flour, 4 cups of milk, and Jimmy Dean sage pork sausage. I transfer from a skillet type pan into a pre heated larger pan so I can really whisk it (use plastic whisk). And tons of fresh ground black pepper. I am from Texas and have really missed traditional biscuits and gravy. Thanks so much for this recipe. Adding the the six tbsp. to meat like you describe really does keep it from tasting like flour. The sage sausage is perfect for keeping grease to a minimum and not turning the gravy a brown color.
