Instructions
Whip up this irresistible sausage gravy that'll have everyone rushing to the table! It's simple, quick, and downright delicious.
- Using your fingers, pull small chunks of sausage apart and add them evenly to a large, heavy skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until the sausage loses its pink color. Lower the heat to medium-low.
- Sprinkle half of the flour over the browned sausage and stir thoroughly so it absorbs the flour. Gradually add the remaining flour a little at a time. Continue stirring and cook for about 1 minute more, then slowly pour in the milk while stirring constantly.
- Keep cooking the gravy, stirring often, until it thickens to your desired consistencythis usually takes about 10 to 12 minutes. Season with the seasoned salt and ground black pepper; keep stirring until the gravy becomes thick and rich. If it thickens too quickly, add additional milk, half a cup at a time, until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve the sausage gravy generously over warm biscuits right away! Your family will love this comforting classic.
