Bob Evans Sausage Gravy

Step 1

Crumble the sausage into a frying pan over medium heat and cook until browned, stirring often.

Step 2

Remove the sausage from the frying pan with a slotted spoon and reserve the pan drippings. If you have less than 1/4 cup pan drippings, add vegetable oil to reach 1/4 cup.

Step 3

Heat the pan drippings and oil over medium-low heat. Gradually add the flour one tablespoon at a time and whisk. Stir constantly until the flour thickens and turns light brown.

Step 4

Slowly add water and stir.

Step 5

When the flour mixture is smooth, add milk, salt, and paprika. Stir until well blended.

Step 6

Add the sausage and simmer until heated through. Do not let the gravy come to a full boil because boiling will curdle the milk.

Step 7

Serve the sausage gravy with biscuits.
