Biscuits and Gravy

This biscuits and gravy is so easy and simple to make.  I have been making it for years for my kids.  My daughter loves my biscuits and gravy recipe so much that when she goes to a restaurant for breakfast, she will order biscuits and gravy and she doesn't like it.  She is so used to my recipe.  It is nothing fancy, but very easy to make. 

RECIPE:

1 lbs jimmy dean ground sausage

1/2 cup flour

4-5 cups of milk (i used skim milk)

1/4-1/2 tsp pepper (i used 1/2 tsp i like it spicy)

1 can Pillsbury biscuits

PRINTABLE RECIPE

First, turn on your oven and get your biscuits cooking while you make the sausage and gravy.  Next, you brown your sausage in a pan until done.

 Sprinkle in the flour a little at a time and stir in between sprinkles. It will seem dry but keep sprinkling and stirring.  Cook for a few minutes to cook the flour taste out.  The flour mixes with some of the fat of the sausage. So don't drain the sausage.  If you use Jimmy Dean, there is little fat released in the pan.

Sprinkle in 1/4-1/2 tsp pepper at this time depending on your taste.

 Add milk, 1 cup at a time and mix in between.  I use 4 1/2 -5 cups.  We like our gravy a little thinner than most, so put in the milk and stop when you like the consistency.  cook on medium to low heat, don't let it boil and stir at all time. 

 When the gravy is at your consistency, it is done.

pour your sausage and gravy over your biscuits and enjoy.
