This recipe is good. But if your not squemish about butter or fat, here is the proper way to make sausage gravy. Brown Sausage, remove from pant. In hot pan put 1/2 stick butter, flour make into muhy paste add milk till thicked enough and serve over busicuts. Ralph Vendegna

Just gave it four stars because of the fat/calorie content. There is no need for the extra fat in the margarine and also when I make it I drain the excess fat out of the pan after cooking the sausage, there is still enough to make the roux with the flour. Someone commented that you can't reheat it with the bisquits in the microwave, they get tough. Very true, but just nuke the bisquits separately for a shorter period of time. We never have fresh milk on hand so I use powdered skim milk and it works great and again, fewer calories.

Good recipe but I do it without extra fat (margarine or butter). Just brown the sausage and dump between 1/4 and 1/3 C of flour over it. Stir for a few minutes to cook the flour so it doesn't taste raw and then just add milk a little at a time till it seems think enough for me. Also to add flavor I add a bit of sage and pepper.

I'm not an expert on biscuits and gravy, but we really enjoyed this. I cut back on the extra margarine, and it was still good.

This is DELISH!!! I made it for 6 servings instead of 4. All I did was 1 1/2 pound Sausage, 5 Cups of Milk, 1/4 Cup & 2 Tablespoons of Flour..Also, I used Bacon Drip instead of butter. Salt and Pepper to taste. It made plently!! I have never made homemade sausage gravy before and I can say this is a Great recipe.. Easy!!!!!!

I also enjoyed the flavor of this and also added more flour to make it thicker. I actually didn't use any sausage (because we didn't have any) and found it to be tasty as a white gravy (with some extra butter for flavoring). Very nice.

This was really good. It could have been a bit thicker, that was the only complaint from my family, so next time I will add a bit more flour, to get it thicker! But it was good!

My wife and I loved this! This was by far the simplest and tastiest gravy ever. I use Jimmy Dean's sage flavored sausage most of the time and it was great in this recipe. I also load up the black pepper (coarse ground) as we are both big fans. Another thing, this gravy warms up great in the microwave but biscuits don't fare as well, so I usually make fresh hot toast to go with leftovers.

I was recently looking on here for country gravy recipes to try for country fried steak. This is pretty much the same recipe I have used for years. The only difference (and I think this makes a big difference) is I use white pepper. I know that sounds picky but it tastes much better.

This was my first attempt every at sausage gravy and I've really only made gravy a few times before this. EASY though and delish! My husband said we will NEVER buy sausage gravy in a can again and I totally agree. The second time we made it we used hot sausage and made it over biscuits with omelets for breakfast - too die for! Thanks for sharing!

Good recipe. I wouldn't recommend adding any salt, though, the sausage itself was salty enough, and if you use biscuits from a canister, they too, have more than enough salt.

This was delious and a family favorite. Depending on how your family eats this will only feed 2-3 people so you might want to double this if you have good eaters. I would and have recommended this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing!!

I can't make gravy...at all, but this recipe is so easy and tasty. We have this for breakfast 2-3 times a month and it always turns out great. Only thing I do differently is cutting the milk down to 3 c. instead of 4 otherwise it isn't as thick as we like. Thanks Bonnie for this wonderfully easy recipe.

Definitely a keeper! I too used bacon grease instead of margarine. Put this over Quick Biscuits (recipe on this site) and there was nothing left! Should have made more.

This was great! I believe I used less fat than the recipe called for (didn't measure) and I had to add more flour to thicken to a consistency that we prefer. I only used three cups of milk, but did use one pound of Jimmy Dean all-natural sausage! It was delicious with biscuits and eggs for dinner.
