An easy 3 ingredient southern style sausage gravy. Have it over biscuits or make yourself a haystack! Can also be served over toast or chicken fried steak!

As requested by SnoopzzBoo. Leave a comment on my channel if there’s a recipe you want to see in the future!

What you’ll need:
1 lb breakfast sausage (any brand will do)
1/2 cup flour
4 cups milk
salt and pepper to taste

Brown sausage in a heavy bottom pan until done. Do not drain! Add flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to cook the flour taste out. Add milk and heat over medium heat until it starts to bubble. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and serve. Enjoy!

Goes great over my homemade buttermilk biscuits! To see how I make those, see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLc0Hkbwz7c

I’m going to start with one pound one roll of farmland original pork breakfast sausage and I’m going to brown this up and I have this over medium medium-high heat just want to crumble this up and brown it up and while you’re browning this you want to make sure and scrape up all the little bits of goodness that get stuck to the bottom of the pan you want all that stuff in your gravy now I am NOT going to drain this I’m going to use the fat that comes off of the sausage and use that to make a roux to thicken the gravy this is pretty much done like I said I’m not going to drain it it’s not going to be low fat people have a half a cup of flour just regular old white flour I’m going to put that in stir this around and you want to constantly move this because you don’t want that flour to stick to the bottom of your pan make sure and get the sides like so you want to cook this for a minute or two and to this we’re going to add four cups of milk you can use any milk you want this is 1% if you want to use 2% or whole that’s perfectly fine too vitamin D whole milk will make it delicious anyway you just want to stir this around and some of that flour is going to be stuck to the bottom of the pan just keep stirring it and it’ll come up and I still have this over medium-high heat and as this warms up and gets up to temperature it will start to thicken up I’m also going to add just a little bit of salt the sausage is quite salty as it is so you don’t want too much and I’m going to add black pepper I like my sausage gravy peppery so I add quite a bit maybe half a teaspoon or so and you just want to keep stirring this so you don’t burn your milk and to get all that goodness off the bottom of your pan so this has been going for maybe six seven eight minutes or so and you can see it’s just starting to bubble up and with a flour based mixture this is pretty much as thick as it’s going to get if you continue to cook this it’ll break down on you so you don’t want that as soon as it starts bubbling I like to take it turn the heat off take it off the heat now you don’t have to have this just with biscuits to have biscuits and gravy one of my favorite is things okay well I have two favors things using sausage gravy wine is in my sausage or in my breakfast burritos I just take a couple eggs scramble them up put them in flour tortillas with a little cheese and spoon a little sausage gravy over top of them roll them up perfect breakfast the other thing is something that we made at the diner that I used to work at it’s called a haystack which is hashbrowns sprout up regular shredded hash browns frozen hash browns and then you spoon the sausage gravy over top of that and then on top of that you put scrambled eggs or eggs over-easy or however you like your eggs over top of that excellent excellent breakfast so sausage gravy it’s not just for biscuits anyway that’s as easy as it is to make sausage gravy I hope you enjoy

  1. couple of tips, chop up a couple of scallion add them whenever you want, and also add 1/4 corn starch with the flower.

  2. I have tried over and over, only to fail, trying to make gravy… but I decided to try again with your video and boooy it finally came out for once lol So thank you I am now like you-A gravy master!

  3. Its hard to find traditional 'fatty' sausage at the store now-a-days.   It's all super lean.   The brand in this video is perfect.

  4. My sausage gravy is phenomenal. Thank you. My stove is a bit older though, GE from 90's so at the 8 minute mark I started getting antsy when my gravy was still milky, but I waited for mine to bubble like yours while searching for cornstarch just in case, but at about 13 minutes after I added the milk the oil started to separate so I stirred it all together, perfect consistency, hot and the biscuits are in the oven and I forgot to set a timer so I better go check 'em.

  5. I use 3 sausage patties or 4 sausage links, (casing removed), 1 Tbsp AP flour and 3/4 cup of whole milk or half and half. I add butter before the flour and a drop or two of Worcestershire sauce. I serve mine over hash brown potatoes (two potato patties or a hand full of simply potatoes). I have also used this sausage gravy on toasted, open faced, Ciabatta rolls as S.O.S

  6. Stop making videos, you have no clue as to what you are doing when making this dish. Instead of making it at home go back to your dinner and get it and you won't have to wash the dishes!!!!!!!!!!

    It will be just as bland as you apparently like it.

  7. Should be made in a cast iron skillet…flour should equal amount of fat, not usually 1/2 cup…salt is only added at end of cooking, after taste testing…

  8. I appreciate your breakfast videos. You make quality down to earth videos. I’ve liked, and subbed to these, and added your breakfast playlist to my list of saved vids.

  9. 1 package sausage (if your sausage is really fatty like in the video, skip the butter)
    2 Tablespoon butter
    2 Tablespoon flour
    2 Cups evaporated milk (2 – 8 oz cans, add water, half and half, or milk to make 2 full cups.)
    Brown sausage with butter over med. to med high heat.
    Add flour and stir to mix well.
    Add milk all at once.
    Stir constantly.
    Once it starts to boil, continue stirring and cooking for 2 minutes.
