Easy Sausage Gravy

Step 1

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, crumble and brown the sausage. Don't just cook it, but actually allow it to brown some. It adds flavor. Do not drain the grease away.

Step 2

Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 3

Gradually add the milk, stirring well after each addition. Reduce to a simmer and allow the gravy to thicken, stirring frequently. For thicker gravy, add about 2 cups total. For thinner gravy, add more milk. Add salt and lots of black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
