Gravy Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the sausage until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Make the Roux

    Once the sausage is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan. Add the all-purpose flour to the drippings and stir to combine, cooking for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture turns golden brown.

  3. 3

    Add Milk

    Gradually whisk in the milk to the roux, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens, about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Season the Gravy

    Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to the gravy. Stir well to combine and taste to adjust seasoning if needed.

  5. 5

    Combine with Sausage

    Return the cooked sausage to the skillet, stirring to coat it with the gravy. Allow to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
