For the best sausage gravy with biscuits, try this recipe at home and you won't even have to wait to order them at a restaurant. Creamy, meaty, and savory... each bite is nice and salty with a slight kick of vinegar.

Best Sausage Gravy and Biscuits

bulk country sausage

butter

all-purpose flour

hot sauce

black pepper

salt

biscuits,

Heat sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, crumbling with a spoon and stirring often, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.


Add butter to skillet and melt. Sprinkle flour evenly over skillet and stir for 1 minute. Whisk in 2 1/2 cups milk and scrape up any bits off the bottom of the skillet. Bring mixture to a simmer.


Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 10 minutes. If mixture becomes too thick, thin slightly by adding more milk or water. Season with hot sauce, pepper, and salt; cook  for 1 more minute.


Unless you bought the world's leanest sausage, this gravy will have WAY too much sausage grease in it.  Recommend some be drained off before adding the flour and proceeding.  Otherwise, a pretty good variation on the basic recipe.  The hot sauce adds a little heat, plus the slight touch of vinegar flavor mentioned in the pep talk.

Delish. Although initial description mentions a slight Vinegar taste although ingredients list does not mention vinegar so I did not add vinegar other than that it was divine.

Really? This was deemed "best" enuff to be in my in box today. Alton Brown nailed this years ago and his great grand ma probably made it this way 100yrs B4 that. # of breakfast sausage (you need 1/4 cup rendered fat or add butter or oil to make that amount), 1/4 cup flour, 2 cups milk and what ever else you want to throw in. The basic recipe is 5 star classic. Nothing special to this version.

When it called for the sausage cooked in a large skillet and then add butter to the skillet. I drained the grease in a container. I can't imagine putting butter into a skillet full of grease.

What is blank's biscuits?  Is that where the vinegar flavor you mention is coming from because there is no vinegar in your recipe? Otherwise it is just the basic recipe we all have.

The recipe sounds pretty basic and delicious, but maybe a bit misleading to say it has a kick of vinegar without explaining that the vinegar is in the hot sauce. See @amhorning's comment.

Sorry, Nicole, good, but not original.  I've been making this for years, and other folks have been making it for generations.  It's called Sawmill gravy.

pretty much same way I make mine. To the person asking about the vinegar it is coming from the hot sauce. I don't want to be that person but I have to say this is called best biscuits and gravy recipe but it is mainly just the gravy recipe no biscuit recipe. Thanks for sharing!

If you are going to compromise a recipe for two items (i.e. Sausage gravy AND biscuits) there should be a recipe for both and a complete one at that. J/S
