Recipe type: Sausage Gravy for Biscuits and Gravy
Cuisine: Breakfast
Serves: 6-8 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 lb regular breakfast sausage
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 5-6 cups 1% or 2% milk
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper (can add a little salt too, if desired)
  • ¼ tsp Tony's Creole Seasoning (more if you like things spicy)
  • Homemade Biscuits or store-bought biscuits
Instructions
  1. In a large/deep skillet or in a dutch-oven-style pan like the one in the pictures above, brown the sausage.
  2. Once sausage is browned, add flour, black pepper and creole seasoning. Stir until well incorporated into the cooked sausage. Stir for an extra 30 seconds to be sure.
  3. Next, add 2 cups of the milk and quickly whisk it into the sausage-flour mixture. It will thicken quickly, so add another cup or so and keep mixing. Doing it in stages like this will help you not get lumps in your gravy. I just keep the gallon of milk in my hand and dump a little more as I go. Remember, exact measurements do not matter with this recipe. You just want to be careful not to add too much milk, so add a little at a time once you have a pretty good gravy going.
  4. Turn the heat down to low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Keep stirring it every minute or so and add a little more flour if needed.
  5. Once gravy has simmered and is the desired consistency, take off the heat and serve over homemade or store-bought biscuits.
