SAUSAGE GRAVY

Grandma's own! Adjust the milk to the thickness you like. Works with bacon, too. Serve hot over freshly baked biscuits!

Provided by Denyse

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes     Gravy Recipes     Pork Gravy

Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound ground pork sausage
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups milk

Steps:

  • Place sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Remove sausage, drain and set aside.
  • Pour off most of the fat from the pan, leaving about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Return pan to medium-low heat and add flour. Using a whisk, stir vigorously until roux forms, scraping bottom of pan. Reduce heat to low and let roux cook at least 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Grandma always "burned" hers a little on purpose.
  • Add milk in a stream, whisking the whole time. After adding about 2 1/2 cups, turn heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring constantly. Bring gravy to a boil and cook to desired thickness. Add more milk if a thinner gravy is desired. You may also add some of the cooked and crumbled sausage to the gravy.

LOW CARB SAUSAGE GRAVY



Low Carb Sausage Gravy image

This is thickened with xanthan gum, which you can find in health food stores. Be careful with it, as a little bit goes a long way, and it takes just a bit longer to thicken than flour or cornstarch, so do give it time.

Provided by PalatablePastime

Categories     Sauces

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb bulk pork sausage or 1 lb turkey breakfast sausage
2 cups cream (I use Hood Carb Countdown) or 2 cups low-carb milk (I use Hood Carb Countdown)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup coffee
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum

Steps:

  • Brown sausage until cooked through and drain any excess fat.
  • Pour milk over crumbled sausage and season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir in coffee.
  • Sprinkle xanthan gum evenly over skillet, and stir over low heat until gravy thickens.
  • Note: xanthan gum takes a bit longer to thicken than flour (and uses quite a bit less), so be patient; if you start adding a lot of xanthan gum to get it to thicken, the gravy will turn pasty (but if it does, just thin it with milk).
