Here’s a look at this delightful dish before we get into the nitty-gritty of the recipe.

Ingredients:

1 pound ground sausage
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder (optional)

Instructions:

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until it’s browned and crumbly, about 5-7 minutes. Make sure to drain any excess fat if needed.
Add the flour to the skillet and stir until it is well combined with the sausage, allowing it to cook for about 1 minute. This will help create a roux which is the foundation for your gravy.
Gradually pour in the milk while continuously stirring to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Continue cooking until the gravy thickens, which should take about 5-10 minutes. Be sure to stir frequently to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the skillet.
Once the gravy has reached your desired thickness, season with salt and pepper to taste. If you’re using garlic and onion powders, add them now for extra flavor.
Serve hot over freshly baked biscuits, toast, or even rice for an enjoyable breakfast or brunch dish.

This savory sausage gravy is sure to be a hit at your table. Its creamy texture and rich flavor make it a standout dish that everyone will love. Enjoy this recipe with your family and friends!
