OK! This is it! Sawmill Gravy! You gotta try it! Bake up
some biscuits and serve this gravy over the top and you
will absolutely agree that you have NEVUH tasted anything
better in your life. I made this for breakfast this morning
and I already wanting to have it again.

Sawmill Gravy

(from “the Deen Brothers, Ya’ll Come Eat” Cookbook)
1-lb bulk breakfast sausage (I used Jimmy Deen Original)
4 1/2-tbspn all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups milk
freshly ground black pepper to taste
salt to taste
(I also added one capful of Kitchen Bouquet because
I prefer brown gravy over white gravy)

In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium
heat until brown, breaking meat up with a fork as it
cooks. Using a slotted spoon, transfer sausage
to a pepper towel-lined plate to drain. Pour off all
but 2-tbspn oil from the skillet. Heat the remaining
oil over medium heat and whisk in the flour, cook
and stir for 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk;
increase heat to medium-high and simmer about
3 minutes or until thickened. Stir in the sausage,
pepper and salt. Serve over the top of freshly
baked biscuit hot from the oven.
