Biscuits with sausage and gravy

I couldn't live without bacon grease. That gravy sounds good rkunsaw but I'd have to use cornstarch to thicken it because of the gluten in the flour and use gluten free biscuits. Grits I like to eat like a cereal with sugar and milk. It tastes just like farina .

Cornstarch will be fine. Probably use about half as much, which I'm sure you know more about it than I do.

Brown pork sausage, sage flavor preferred, if using plain sausage add sage. Note the lack of fat from this locally produced sausage.

Biscuits and Sausage Gravy
To avoid tough biscuits, don't over-handle, keep everything COLD as possible until it goes in the oven.
I kept a covered bowl ready in the fridge at all times for biscuits. It contained
2 c. flour
1 TB baking powder
1 tea salt.
1/4 C. cold butter, cut in (to consistency of small peas)
================
When ready for biscuits, stir in most of
1/4 C. milk curdled with a bit of vinegar.
Quickly now, stir, knead just to mix, roll out to 1/2 inch thick, cut rounds with a drinking glass, bake 10-12 minutes in 450-degree oven.
=============
Sausage Gravy
Fry 1 lb breakfast sausage. Stir/mash in a couple tablespoons flour. Cook a few moments. Gradually add milk or water, stirring, cooking as you go until consistency is reached. Simmer until flour is cooked. Add salt and pepper if desired.
==========
Split a biscuit and butter it. Heap with gravy. Top with an over-easy egg. Serve with a couple breakfast-sausage patties and garnish with an orange twist

Still a cold weather favorite!

I bought a pound of country style sausage the other day.

I’ll fry it into crumbles and freeze it in single serving packages to add to milk gravy.

I usually serve it over baked or boiled potatoes with a side of mixed vegetables and an applesauce snack cup. 🐷🐷🐷

I made biscuits ( frozen), cooked sausage patties and enough gravy to cover them. Broke biscuits and sausage into small bits in separate containers, covered with gravy and put in the freezer. Put one in the microwave for about a minute and breakfast is ready.
