Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet or frying pan, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon or spatula until it is browned and fully cooked. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Do not drain the fat unless there is an excessive amount.
Add the unsalted butter to the cooked sausage in the skillet. Stir until the butter is completely melted.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the sausage mixture. Stir well, ensuring the sausage is evenly coated. Cook for about 2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the whole milk, about 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Continue stirring until the mixture begins to thicken. Reduce the heat to low.
Season the gravy with kosher salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Simmer the gravy for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency.
Remove the skillet from heat and serve the 'Sausage N Stuff Gravy' hot over freshly baked biscuits, mashed potatoes, or any dish of your choice. Enjoy!
