Hot Sausage Gravy n' Biscuits

Print

I love sausage gravy and biscuits!  I mean, who doesn't?  This recipe is so simple that even my
non-cooking daughter could make this!  Here we go...

Ingredients:

1 lb. hot breakfast sausage (such as Tennessee Pride or Jimmy Dean)
4 TBSP all-purpose flour
4 cups milk (I use 1% milk)
10 Biscuits

Directions:

1)  Brown the sausage in a fry pan.  When cooked through, add flour and mix well.


2)  Add the milk.  Bring to a slow boil and reduce heat to medium/medium high.

3)  Stir continuously.  This is when your gravy is thickening.  Take off heat when it is to your desired
consistency.


4)  Slice/pull apart warm biscuits into two halves and smother with sausage gravy.



5)  Enjoy!

Notes:  I don't make this very often because I will eat the whole batch!  Not good.  If you don't like the spicier flavors, use mild sausage.  I do not recommend the maple flavor as it doesn't seem to blend well with the milk.  Since I don't cook before 12 noon, I make breakfast for dinner; hence, the scrambled eggs were added to our sausage gravy and biscuits.

  2. Yum!! I hadn't realized that those of you south of our border (I'm Canadian, eh!) had a thing for biscuits and gravy! When my 2 youngest kids and I made a road trip to Disneyland last fall we were curious to try this new delicacy! It was everywhere! And it was GOOD!!! So, now I have a wonderful recipe to try at home here in the north! Thanks so much Ellen!

  4. You're killing me here! These are my all time favorite guilty pleasure! Growing up in the south it was the breakfast I always asked for. I know this might sound strange, but I would put jelly or jam on the biscuits before smothering them in gravy. Very yummy! Love your post!

  7. Just reading the title made my mouth water - literally. I love this breakfast specialty.
    I agree with you Re maple flavour, I do not care for it in sausage, prefer lots of sage and red pepper.
    Thanks Ellen.

  22. Reminds me of some of the breakfasts I enjoyed with my family when I was a child. And while I can cook, I never did master gravy. But I think I could make that.
