Biscuits and Sausage Gravy

Listen, it's the holidays. That means good ol' comfort food. And fabulous hearty meals.

This is probably one of John's favorite breakfasts. And it couldn't be easier to make. Don't let the gravy scare you. I promise it is so easy!

Biscuits and Sausage Gravy

6 biscuits (homemade, or your favorite store bought biscuit)
1 pound of hot breakfast sausage (like Jimmy Dean)
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
salt and pepper to taste

While your biscuits are baking, brown the sausage in a large skillet. Once the sausage is browned and crumbled sprinkle in the flour. Stir in the flour a cook for a couple minutes. The flour will absorb all of the oil so don't drain it. Slowly stir in the milk and stir until the gravy thickens. You may use a whisk but I just use a flat wooden spoon. Taste the gravy and then season with salt and pepper. You will definitely need salt, but taste it to know how much. It is different each time I make it!

Break the biscuits in half and spoon the gravy over the biscuits.
