Notes
-
- Use a pound of your favorite bulk pork sausage. If you like things spicy, use spicy pork sausage or add a little bit of pepper flakes.
-
- For best results, if your sausage has a lot of fat, drain the excess grease before adding the flour.
-
- The gravy will thicken the longer it stands. If the gravy becomes too thick, add extra milk to thin it.
-
- If serving with homemade biscuits, prepare the biscuits first. Pop them in the oven to bake and then get started on the gravy.
-
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
