- Use a good quality sausage. The sausage is the star of the show in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a sausage that is made with fresh, ground pork and has a good flavor.
- Brown the sausage thoroughly. This will help to develop the flavor of the sausage and prevent it from being greasy.
- Use a good quality flour. The flour is another important ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a flour that is made with high-quality wheat and has a good flavor.
- Don't overmix the biscuit dough. Overmixing the biscuit dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
- Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown. The biscuits should be baked until they are golden brown on top and flaky on the inside.
- Serve the biscuits and gravy immediately. The biscuits and gravy are best served immediately, while the biscuits are still warm and flaky.
