Ingredients

  • 1 poundbulk ground pork breakfast sausage (mild or hot)
  • ¼ cupall-purpose flour
  • 21/2 cups milk
  • salt
  • pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, crumble and brown the sausage. Don't just cook it, but actually allow it to brown some. It adds flavor. Do not drain the grease away.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

  3. 3

    Gradually add the milk, stirring well after each addition. Reduce to a simmer and allow the gravy to thicken, stirring frequently. For thicker gravy, add about 2 cups total. For thinner gravy, add more milk. Add salt and lots of black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
