Gravy sausage and biscuits
Sausage Sausage is most often served on hot fluffy biscuits. Although it’s usually thought of as breakfast fare, biscuits and gravy make a nice low-country dinner as well!
However, you can also serve sausage sauce on toast, English muffins, fried steak chicken, or fried pork chops.
Gravy sausage with biscuits is a fabulous breakfast option (or brunch). I love you prepare my biscuits the night before and place in the refrigerator to keep the dough cool. Then in the morning, I pop the biscuits in the oven and start the sauce.
In about 30 minutes, I had a cool southern decadence meal the whole family was excited about!
Easy Sausage Recipe Ingredients
- Ground pork sausage – Usually labeled “essential” or breakfast sausages.
- All-purpose flour – This acts as thickening agent in the sauce.
- All milk – You can use any type of milk (even black milk) but whole milk is preferable for taste and texture.
- Tim – This favorite spice rack adds that a little extra rounded the flavor. You can use dried or fresh thyme leaves.
- Garlic powder – The second add-on improves the overall taste of the sauce. A little goes a long way.
- Salt and pepper – No finishing sauce without a generous sprinkling of ground pepper!
How To Make Sausage Gravy
- The Brown Sausage. Place a large sauté pan over medium heat, and brown the sausage, stirring and breaking it into smaller pieces. The sausage should be fully cooked before moving on.
- Add the flour. Add the flour and condiments. Stir well to coat the sausage in flour. Move the sausage around the pan so the dough has time to cook.

Frequently asked questions
Can I make serious sausages and homemade biscuits ahead of time?
Yes! You can make and refrigerate sausage sauce up to 4 days in advance. Heat it on the stovetop and add in an extra splash of milk to thin it out.
For the biscuits, I would personally pa cook them ahead of time. Biscuits are always better fresh! However, you can make the dough and cut the biscuits out a day before baking. Then refrigerate them overnight, so they are ready to cook in the morning.
Can I Freeze Sausage Gravy?
Well … You can technically freeze anything. But I wouldn’t freeze sauce. It’s best to do it and use it up in a few days.
Can I Make Gluten-Free Biscuits with Gravy?
Yes. Make sure the sausage you buy does not contain gluten. Then replace gluten-free 1-to-1 baking mixture for the all-purpose dough. For the biscuits, we love this gluten-free biscuit recipe.
Can I Make Gravy Sausage Without Pork?
Yes. Look for ground turkey sausage used in place of pork sausage.
