This recipe for Simple Savory Sausage Gravy is the perfect balance of heat to spice to sausage to the creamy gravy

Provided by LindySez

Categories     Breads - Biscuits & Muffins     Sauces, Dressings & Condiments

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 - 6 ounces breakfast sausage
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 - 3 cups whole milk
1/2 teaspoon or to taste Slap yo Mama (or a mixture of 1/4 teaspoon each cayenne, season salt, and garlic powder)
Pinch of dried thyme
Pinch of dried sage (if leaves use your fingers to pulverize it)
Generous amount of freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Using your fingers, break the breakfast sausage up into small pieces into a large skillet, heat over medium heat and when it starts to sizzle, add the butter, cook stirring, until the meat is no longer pink. Add half the flour and stir until absorbed into the butter and coats the sausage, continue adding the flour little by little, stirring it around until it has all been used and the pan looks dry. The flour will just start to brown, about a minute more.
  • Slowly add 2 cups of milk, stirring constantly until it thickens, adding more milk as needed. This process can take up to 10 minutes, so don't add too much all at once, add as needed until you get a nice thick "gravy". If the sauce becomes too thick, add more milk in small amounts.
  • Once the gravy is nice and thick, add the Slap yo Mama or equivalent, thyme, sage, and black pepper. Stir, and taste. Adjust seasonings and serve immediately over warmed halved biscuits.

DAIRY-FREE SAVORY SAUSAGE GRAVY



Dairy-Free Savory Sausage Gravy image

Fairly basic, large-batch sausage gravy recipe that I've developed over time. The family loves it every time, so the large batch is needed! Normally I'd use soy milk for most things, but I've found that in greater quantities it tends to froth badly. Almond milk does not have this problem though! Serve over warmed biscuits or toasted bread of your choice.

2 pounds breakfast sausage
2 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 cube beef bouillon, crushed
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

SAVORY SAUSAGE GRAVY

I received this recipe at a cooking show that was being sponsored by Rhodes Bread. I've made a couple of tweaks to the original recipe & it's a real hit in my house. Due to the mushrooms & basil, it's perfect for when you want breakfast for dinner. It's best served hot over your favorite freshly baked biscuits. I also prefer to make it in an iron skillet, being a Southerner it just seems to make it taste better!

A staple in Southern households, this sausage gravy can be served over grits but goes beautifully with biscuits too.

Provided by JimmyDean

Categories     Pork Gravy

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
1/2 (1-pound) package Jimmy Dean Premium Pork Sausage
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon sliced green onions, or to taste

Steps:

  • In a small frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat for about 30 seconds. Add Jimmy Dean sausage and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until browned, stirring frequently to break up the sausage into small pieces, then drain.
  • Add flour and mix well with the sausage. Reduce heat to medium and add 1 cup of milk, stirring to prevent any flour lumps. Add the remaining milk and the salt and pepper. Bring heat up to medium-high for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sauce bubbles up to the top of the pan (do not allow it to boil over).
  • Reduce heat to medium-low, stirring the sauce frequently until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
