Method
Biscuits
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Cut in Butter
Cut the stick of unsalted butter into small pieces and add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Milk
Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Shape Biscuits
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.

Cook Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.

Add Flour
Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine. Cook for about 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Add Milk Gradually
Slowly pour in the milk while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue to cook until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Season the Gravy
Add salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. Stir well to combine.
