Description

Biscuits and Gravy: a very important cowboy staple. So dadgum delicious. And the gravy technique is applicable to just about any gravy situation you may come across on your path through life, like chicken fried steak or even turkey at Thanksgiving.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Breakfast Sausage
  • 1 can (16 Oz.) Canned Biscuits
  • 2 Tablespoons Flour
  • 1 cup Milk
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Preparation

Slice the breakfast sausage and place in a warm pan. Cook the sausage according to the instruction (thoroughly cooked inside). Remove them to a paper towel to drain.

Place your biscuits into the oven to cook according to the instructions on the can.

Pour grease out of the skillet/pan you used for the sausage, adding back in only what you want to use to make the gravy. For one to two people, use about 2 to 3 tbsp. of grease. Over low to medium-low heat, add about 2 tbsp of flour to the grease and whisk immediately. If you add in a little more grease so it’s smooth and stirrable. You want to find a good balance between the flour and the grease.

Once you find it, just keep stirring with the whisk and allow the mixture to brown for a few minutes. As you whisk, scrape in the anything from the bottom of the pan as you go.

After 2-3 minutes, whisking constantly, pour in about a cup of milk. IF the mixture is dry, lumpy or pasty, add in more milk – again, drawing a balanced mixture. Add salt to taste. Let the gravy warm up over low heat, stirring occasionally. Cut prepared biscuits in half pour gravy atop them

I just made it this morning for all of my boys, but with a bit more pepper and more actual sausage in the gravy (and I cheated because there wasn’t enough grease, so I stole some from the bacon). I’m not sure who was drooling more, the dogs, or daddy!!

This is a winner. I’ve been making my biscuits and gravy like this for years. The only difference is that I crumble the sausage up and add it to the gravy. The perfect southern breakfast.
