Ingredients
  1. 1 lb pork breakfast sausage
  2. ¼ cup flour
  3. 2 cups raw milk or buttermilk
  4. Salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Cook sausage until brown over medium heat.
  2. Without removing fat drippings, sprinkle meat with flour and stir in over medium heat. Most of the fat should now stick to the meat in a gooey mixture. If there is still a lot of liquid fat, sprinkle on more flour. Continue cooking and stirring for 1 minute to lightly toast the flour.
  3. Stir in half of the milk and continue cooking and stirring over medium heat. When this starts to thicken, pour the rest of the milk in and continue cooking and stirring over medium heat until gravy is thick, about 5 minutes. Add more milk if the final gravy is too thick. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot with homemade biscuits.
Notes
  1. This is a great way to use up souring raw milk (not conventional milk!). The buttermilk flavor adds a rich tartness to the gravy which is very nice.
