Step 1
Preheat oven to 475 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cream of tartar.
Step 2
Use a cheese grater to grate the butter into the bowl on the largest holes of your box grater. Stir butter into flour mixture. Stir until the butter is broken up and the mixture is well combined.
Step 3
Add the milk and stir until just combined – do not over-mix. Pat dough on a floured surface until it’s 3/4 inch thick. Cut into biscuits using a biscuit cutter.
Step 4
Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
Step 5
Makes 10 biscuits.
Step 6
In a large cast iron skillet (or other large skillet), add the sausage and cook over medium to medium-high heat until the sausage is cooked through and no longer pink, 8-10 minutes. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break up the meat into small chunks as needed. Do NOT drain the grease that the sausage made while cooking.
Step 7
Use your spoon to spread the sausage out into an even layer on the bottom of the pan.
Step 8
Sprinkle the flour over the top of the sausage and then stir well to combine. Let the flour and sausage cook for 1-2 minutes, stir often.
Step 9
Whisk the milk slowly into the sausage and flour mixture. Continue whisking until the gravy starts to simmer, about 5 minutes.
Step 10
Keep stirring and let the gravy cook while at a low simmer for an additional 1-3 minutes, until it thickens.
Step 11
Serve the hot gravy over the hot cooked biscuits with additional salt and pepper to taste.
