Homemade Sausage Gravy Kid Friendly Food

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sausage breaking it up as you cook until it's no longer pink. Do not drain the fat.
• Melt the butter, and sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage. Cook the flour for 2 minutes, then slowly add milk and stir constantly as you pour it in to avoid clumps.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until it's thickened.
• Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Taste before adding salt, some sausages are saltier than others and may not need additional salt added.
• Serve immediately after cooking over split biscuits.

SAUSAGE GRAVY RECIPE

Steps:

• Set a large skillet (I love cast iron) over medium heat. Add in the sausage and with a wooden spatula break up sausage into smaller pieces while stirring. Cook until brown and fully done (about 8 to 10 minutes).
• Place butter in skillet and stir until melted.
• Sprinkle flour, garlic, and pepper on top of the sausage and slowly stir until well coated and grease is full absorbed. Continue stirring and let the flour cook fully for about 2 minutes.
• While stirring, slowly pour in 3 cups of the milk. Continue to stir and simmer until gravy thickens (3 to 5 minutes). Add salt, if needed. If gravy is too thick, add the last 1/2 cup of milk.
• Serve over warm fresh biscuits.

HOMEMADE SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Cook sausage in a large skillet, breaking up into small pieces as it cooks.
• Once fully cooked, add butter and mix well until melted and mixed together.
• Add flour and mix together.
• Add milk 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. Mixture will become very thick and then slowly thin out. If you add all of milk at once it will clump. Add it slowly so that it will be a smooth gravy. This is called making a roux.
• Once all milk is added add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve over biscuits.

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• With your finger, tear small pieces of sausage and add them in a single layer to a large heavy skillet. Brown the sausage over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Sprinkle on half the flour and stir so that the sausage soaks it all up, then add more little by little. Stir it around and cook it for another minute or so, then pour in the milk, stirring constantly.
• Cook the gravy, stirring frequently, until it thickens. (This may take a good 10 to 12 minutes.) Sprinkle in the seasoned salt and pepper and continue cooking until very thick and luscious. If it gets too thick too soon, just splash in another 1/2 cup of milk or more if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Spoon the sausage gravy over warm biscuits and serve immediately!

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Place sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Remove sausage, drain and set aside.
• Pour off most of the fat from the pan, leaving about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Return pan to medium-low heat and add flour. Using a whisk, stir vigorously until roux forms, scraping bottom of pan. Reduce heat to low and let roux cook at least 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Grandma always "burned" hers a little on purpose.
• Add milk in a stream, whisking the whole time. After adding about 2 1/2 cups, turn heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring constantly. Bring gravy to a boil and cook to desired thickness. Add more milk if a thinner gravy is desired. You may also add some of the cooked and crumbled sausage to the gravy.
