How to Make Sausage Gravy

  1. Brown 1 lb sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon until cooked through.
  2. Drain off excess grease, reserving about 2 tablespoons if desired for extra richness.
  3. Sprinkle 1/4 cup all-purpose flour over the sausage and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes until lightly browned.
  4. Gradually whisk in 3 cups milk, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
  6. Season generously with black pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon or to taste). Add salt if needed
  7. Serve immediately over your favorite biscuits.
