Method

Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Biscuits

    Preheat your oven according to the biscuit package instructions. Bake the biscuits until golden brown, following the time indicated on the package.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    While the biscuits are baking, dice the green bell pepper and onion into small pieces.

Sausage Gravy Preparation

  1. 3

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.

  2. 4

    Make the Roux

    Once the sausage is cooked, sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir well to combine. Cook for about 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

  3. 5

    Add Milk

    Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow it to thicken, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 6

    Season the Gravy

    Add black pepper and salt to taste, stirring to incorporate.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the biscuits are done, split them in half and place them on a plate. Top each half with a generous amount of sausage gravy.

  2. 8

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle cheddar cheese, diced green peppers, and onions over the gravy, followed by the crumbled sausage or bacon.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your meal!
