I simmer this a bit longer in with the sausage. It really has a great flavor the next day though.

Yep, this is it! I never had this growing up - this is something I learned about after meeting my (Texan) in-laws... and I was an instant fan. I giggled when I read the "you can add some sausage back in" instructions because I always make this with at LEAST half a pound of sausage in the gravy. Chunky is better! I know some recipes call for sage sausage, and even though I have a love affair with maple sausage, I wouldn't use anything but plain for gravy. Just too darn good to mess around with it! If you're looking for a biscuit recipe to go with, try Mom's Baking Powder Biscuits here. Not fancy, just delicious and easy. Enjoy!

I crumble up 1/3 of the sausage and add it to the gravy at the end.

This is a great base recipe that I will use often! I made sausage links and didn't have quite enough grease so added a little butter. Added salt and pepper at the end and it was delicious! I'm getting ready to make it again using bacon this time.

Almost tastes like Grandma's... I added a half tsp of salt and a little fresh cracked black pepper. This was great over biscuits.

For more favor try cooking the gravy in the pan with the sauage. This is a great base to start with. I break up my sauage into small pieces, cook in a 2 qt. sauce pan stirring often. When it gets a little brown I add a tablespoon of butter and my flour. Cook this, stirring constantly. Once it starts to get brown I add my milk, stir until it is thickened the way I want it. If your gravy gets too thick, add a little more milk or water to thin it. Just remember a sauce or gray made with flour will continue to thicken after you quit cooking it.

loved it! i was making in smaller portions for the two of us so i used a couple of chopped links for each of us(bought in bulk then portioned and put in freezer). i added a bit of butter to sausage fat to stretch it a bit and a touch of pepper to it as it thickened. i thought it was the perfect breakfast with Nancy Horsburg's Fluffy Biscuit recipe and a fried egg. :o) (I made the gravy once with maple sausage and boyfriend preferred it, though i thought it was odd.)

5 stars for ease, 3 for taste. Given this was my first attempt at homemade Biscuits & Gravy, I thought it was super easyto make. Flavor wise, it was kind of bland at first even though I did let it simmer while I made the biscuits so it would have time to marry all the flavors, but it was still a bit bland for my taste though my husband said it was great. The left overs the next day though were awesome. I might try cooking it the day before and then reheating and see what kind of results I get then.

This is a very good basic gravy! I added salt and pepper to taste and used crumbled roasted bell pepper and caramelized onion sausage in it! Delicious!

This is your basic sausage gravy. After trying several recipes from this site, our favorite gravy recipe is the "Country Sausage Gravy". It is loaded with flavor!! I did add garlic and onion powder, as well as a bit of dried herb seasoning.

My family loves this recipe. I use turkey sausage instead of pork so there's very little grease in the pan, so i used butter. it still came out delicious.
