BULK COUNTRY SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• You will need a very large pot to make this gravy.
• Put sausage into pot, add 1-2 quarts of water.
• Stir to break meat up very fine while bringing to a boil.
• When cooked through, strain the water off of the meat.
• Return meat to the pan and add shortening; brown the meat till it starts to look crispy.
• Add flour and cook until flour is browned, stir often so you don't let it burn (use low heat).
• Add seasonings.
• Using large whisk stir the first gallon of milk into the flour and turn up heat,while remaining to stir constantly.
• Once it thickens, add the kitchen bouquet and the can of evaporated milk.
• Stir to mix and bring to a boil.
• Next you may add the other half gallon of milk as you need it, to get your gravy to the consistency that you like. (Remember, gravy must come to a boil before you know how thick it is or isn't going to be).
• If after all your milk has been added, its still too thick, then add a bit of water and bring it back to a boil.
• Add liquid to thin gravy a little bit at a time.
• It is easier to thin than to rethicken properly.
• Once it is to the consistency you like and has come to a boil again,then it's done.
• Taste to see if it needs more salt.
• Adjust if need be and serve over biscuits, toast, fried potatoes or mashed potatoes.
• To freeze cool completely then package and freeze.
• Will keep 3-6 months in freezer.

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!
