Sausage Gravy


Sausage Gravy

INGREDIENTS
1 pound sage-flavored bulk pork sausage
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 quart milk
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash Worcestershire sauce
Dash hot pepper sauce
Biscuits

DIRECTIONS
Crumble sausage into a large saucepan; cook over medium-low heat. Add onion; cook and stir until transparent. Drain, discarding all but 2 tablespoons of drippings. Stir in flour; cook over medium-low heat about 6 minutes or until mixture bubbles and turns golden. Stir in milk. Add seasonings; cook, stirring, until thickened. To serve, slice biscuits and spoon gravy over halves. Yield: 4-6 servings.


I found this recipe in a "Taste Of Home" magazine several years ago and it quickly became a family favorite. The addition of nutmeg, worcestershire sauce and hot sauce all blend together to make a truly scrumptious gravy. Over fresh, hot bisquits? Nothing better!! A good sausage gravy is worth its weight in gold. I think this one is the whole mine. :)

Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh. Pardon me. But that looks THAT good. Yum. I'm marking that one. My mom always put the dash of worchestshire sauce but I think you're right. The nutmeg and hotsauce would really make it.
