Sausage gravy is a classic Southern American breakfast dish known for its rich, savory flavor and creamy texture. Typically served over warm, fluffy buttermilk biscuits, sausage gravy consists of ground pork sausage cooked until browned, then simmered with milk and thickened with a roux made from flour and sausage drippings. The result is a hearty, peppery white gravy that’s both comforting and satisfying.
