Southern biscuits and breakfast sausage gravy

January 4, 2025 by admin

1 pound pork breakfast sausage, casings removed

1/2 teaspoon dried sage

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

3 1/2 cups whole milk

Salt and pepper

1 tube refrigerated biscuits

Place the sausage in a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat.

Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break down the meat and spread it out in a single layer.

Season with the dried sage and the Worcestershire sauce, and stir regularly until all sides are well-browned.

Reduce the heat to medium low.

Add the flour, two tablespoons at a time, stirring well after each addition and waiting for it to fully disappear before adding more.

Add the milk in a steady stream and stir constantly.

Continue to stir regularly until the mixture thickens, about 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

While the gravy thickens, bake the biscuits according to the instructions on the tube.

Serve the gravy over the biscuits.
