Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt until well combined.

Cut in Butter
Cut in 0.5 cups of unsalted butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Cook Chorizo
In a large skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook 1 pound of chorizo sausage until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Flour
Sprinkle 0.25 cups of all-purpose flour over the cooked chorizo and stir to coat. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Add Milk
Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Season the Gravy
Add 1 teaspoon of black pepper and season with salt and red pepper flakes to taste. Allow the gravy to thicken, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes.
