    Sausage Gravy and Biscuits is such a simple dish. Whether you are pro brunch, breakfast or dinner, there is really no wrong time to enjoy a hearty serving of homemade biscuits and gravy. Well maybe breakfast for dinner? I mean, let's be honest, is there a really a wrong time to enjoy a big plate full of biscuits and gravy?

    I think one of my favorite things about breakfast is that regardless if you are craving something savory or something sweet, there is something for everyone.

    Whip up our Ultimate Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits recipe to make delicious homemade biscuits.

    Why Make This Recipe

    You need to make this recipe because it's:

    Comfort food - sometimes we all need to eat food that's comforting.

    Easy to make - simple is what life is about.

    Versatile - you can switch a lot of things up in this recipe.

    Ingredients

    Sausage - you can use any flavor your family prefers. At times I use hamburger when I'm making it for dinner. It's totally up to you.

    Seasoning - we used Cajun, however, you can use whatever you prefer.

    Butter - make sure you use unsalted so you can control your salt. Remember you can add more table salt once you serve the dish. You can never subtract it.

    Sausage, milk, butter, flour, seasoning, and biscuits.

    Step by Step Instructions

    Below are in-process photos for your reference. The full instructions are in the recipe card below.

    Substitutions

    • Biscuits - feel free to use refrigerated biscuits if you wish.

    Top Tips

    Another great thing about this recipe is that you can totally just make the gravy and use it for other recipes. Once you learn how to make this basic roux, you are on your way to a fantastic white gravy. Did you know that all homemade cheese sauces start with the same base?

    FAQ

    How do you make gravy from scratch without flour?

    You can substitute cornstarch instead.

    How do you thicken?

    If you want your gravy to be thicker, just add a little more flour at a time to get the consistency you want.

    What if I want it thinner?

    If you feel that the gravy is too thick, simply add more liquid, such as milk.

    Equipment

    • Skillet
    • wooden spoon

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 lb ground sausage
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    • ⅓ cup flour
    • 3 cups milk
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon white pepper
    • ½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning
    • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1 can refrigerated biscuits or homemade 8 ct

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat your oven according to the directions on the package for the biscuits or on the directions for your homemade biscuits.
    • Either spray your cooking sheet with your favorite cooking spray or place a silicone mat on top of your baking sheet.
    • Add a little bit of oil into your skillet and preheat your skillet on medium.
    • When your skillet is ready to go, add in the sausage.
    • As soon as the oven is ready, place the biscuits in the oven and set the timer accordingly.
    • Cook the sausage until the meat thermometer reaches 160 degrees and until the pork is no longer pink.
    • Once the biscuits are golden brown and done, remove them from the oven, and set them aside.
    • When the sausage is thoroughly cooked, add the butter and mix together thoroughly.
    • Next add the flour and stir the ingredients together and let the mixture cook for two minutes while stirring continuously.
    • Then add in the reminder of the ingredients as well as the milk and whisk all of the ingredients together until everything is thoroughly combined.
    • Bring to a boil and then lower the temperature to medium low. Whisk constantly for two minutes. As your are whisking the gravy, the gravy will start to thicken. Then remove from the heat.
    • You can either serve up individually by slicing a biscuit in half, adding it to a plate and ladling on a big scoop of the delicious sausage gravy, or you can let everyone serve themselves. Enjoy!
