And this is my favorite Country Gravy recipe! This is what I make when I want Biscuits and Gravy. Of course, I prefer hot bulk sausage!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Place a large skillet on medium heat. Fry your sausage until brown.

    Add the flour to sausage and mix together. Once the flour is lightly browned, whisk in the milk. Continue to whisk until you have scraped up all of the flour from the bottom of the pan and your gravy is beginning to thicken.

    Add salt, and pepper and continue whisking until your gravy is at your desired thickness. If it is too thick, add 1/4 cup more of milk. Reduce heat after bringing to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.

    This is excellent served over chicken fried steak, biscuits, or potatoes.

I love this recipe! It’s very basic and easy to adjust to whatever you feel like adding. Now, what I do is use 2 cups hot water mixed with 2 teaspoons chicken soup base (not the dry bouillon … that was nasty. The paste you buy in jars). Turns out better than the instant chicken gravy packets and is much cheaper, especially if you are like us and want more than just a cup of gravy.

We had an inexpensive Christmas dinner this year.  I made this recipe, then added about 2 cups of mashed beans to thicken.  Put in a bowl, sprinkle with cheese, use as a dip, and you almost have a complete meal!  We also had beans and home made rotisserie chicken.
