Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausage

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled sausage until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Set aside with the sausage.

  3. 3

    Make the Gravy

    In the same skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of the fat from the sausage (or use butter if needed). Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.

  4. 4

    Add Milk

    Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.

  5. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Stir in the cooked sausage and mushrooms into the gravy. Let simmer for a couple of minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the sausage gravy over biscuits or rice, and garnish with chopped scallions and shredded cheddar cheese.
