Sausage
- 2 lbs ground pork
- 2 tablespoons ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons ground sage
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Thyme
- 3/4 cup ice-cold water
Combine all of the ingredients together well. Put in a large zip-lock bag and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
Brown meat and drain, keeping drippings.
Gravy
- Drippings
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 1/2 - 2 cups whole milk
Heat drippings to boiling. Add flour, whisking well to avoid lumps. When thoroughly incorporated, add a small amount of milk, whisking briskly. When thoroughly incorporated and heated through, add more milk, again whisking briskly. Continue slowly adding milk, whisking, and heating through until gravy is the right consistency. Once the gravy is just right, add drained sausage and stir well, heating through.
I admit that I rarely make my own biscuits, mostly because no one in the family really likes breakfast biscuits. Instead, we serve the sausage gravy over roasted potatoes.
Sounds yummy, will have to try this soon!
