Sausage Gravy

Sausage Gravy

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.

Sausage Gravy

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground sausage

• 2 Tablespoons butter

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 1-quart milk

• 1 Tablespoon chicken base

• Salt and pepper to taste

Method

1. In a large saucepan, break up the sausage and cook it in the butter over medium heat.

2. Little by little, add the flour to the butter and fat from the cooked sausage, and make a roux. The amount of flour depends on the amount of fat that has been rendered.

3. Cook and stir the roux until it no longer sticks to the pan and has a consistency similar to peanut butter.

4. Add the milk and chicken base, and use a whisk to blend and thicken the mixture. Season with salt and pepper

5. Turn the heat down, and simmer for about 10 minutes.
