INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 pound ground pork sausage
  • 3 tablespoons bacon grease
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS

  1. Brown sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Set aside, leaving the drippings in the skillet.
  2. Mix bacon grease into the sausage drippings. Reduce heat to medium, combine with flour, and stir constantly until mixture just turns golden brown.
