Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Wooden spoon
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Lb Pork Sausage
  • 1/3 Cup All-purpose Flour
  • 3 Cups Whole Milk
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 Tbsp Butter

Instructions
 

  • Place your large skillet on the stove. Turn the heat to medium-high. Add the crumbled sausage to the hot pan.
  • Brown the meat until it is no longer pink. Use your spoon to break it into small bits. Do not drain the fat from the pan.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage. Stir it well to coat every piece of meat. Cook the flour for one or two minutes.
  • Slowly pour the milk into the skillet. Whisk constantly while you pour the liquid. This keeps the gravy very smooth.
  • Lower the heat to a gentle simmer. Continue to stir as the sauce gets thick. This usually takes about five to seven minutes.
  • Add the salt and the black pepper. Taste the gravy to check the seasoning. Serve it hot over fresh, warm biscuits.

Notes

  • Use whole milk for the richest and creamiest texture possible.
  • Keep stirring the gravy to prevent it from burning.
  • Add more milk if the gravy becomes too thick.
  • Brown the sausage well to get the best deep flavor.
  • Cook the flour for a minute to remove raw taste.
