Biscuits and Sausage Gravy

Step 1

Bake the refrigerated biscuits according to the package directions until golden brown.

Step 2

While the biscuits bake, cook the breakfast sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up, for 6 to 7 minutes until browned and it reaches 160°F with no pink remaining.

Step 3

Add the butter to the skillet with the sausage and let it melt.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and butter, stirring constantly for 1 to 2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.

Step 6

Simmer the gravy for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Step 7

Season with salt and plenty of black pepper to taste.

Step 8

Split the warm biscuits open and ladle the sausage gravy generously over the top before serving.
