Too good, made me family hero.

It looks amazing 🤩 can’t wait to make it

I am an iconoclast. I sauté onions with the sausage, and I add a dash of pepper sauce or cayenne, and a bit of sage. I always use canned evaporated milk. And I split my biscuits. Also, a plastic meat chopper is now part of my tool drawer and it’s perfect for this. I’m talking a handled tool with dull blades in a cross at the bottom.

I have thought about getting one of those meat choppers - people seem to love them!

I have always loved sausage milk gravy and have never been able to make a gravy that was any good. After watching your video I decided to give it another try. Paying attention to the ratios and technique you presented, I just made the best gravy I have ever had. Thanks

I appreciate your videos very easy to follow I like the closeups ,, great illustrations . Thank you, I can see i have been doing this all wrong 😮

I like your recipe! If you feel like experimenting sometime, add a splash of brewed coffee in addition to the Worcestershire sauce. Really adds another depth of flavor!

That's a 10" Wagner "chicken fryer" skillet, which is a bit deeper than a regular skillet. I'm not sure what you mean by regular sausage, but Jimmy Dean's regular is a breakfast sausage. It will work perfectly in this recipe. Thanks for watching!

Call me old-fashioned but, when adding more fat to the rue, I use lard.

Thanks for commenting. I used to do that, but I found that I ended up with too much fat as a ratio to the flour by the time the sausage rendered its fat, and I hated to take away that delicious sausage fat. I don't get any raw flour taste as long as I make sure to cook the flour in the fat for at least a minute or two. Thanks for watching!
