• 1 lb (500 g) ground breakfast sausage
• 3 tbsp (15 mL) bacon grease
• ¼ cup (60 mL) flour
• 3 cup (720 mL) milk
• ½ tsp (2.5 mL) salt
• ¼ tbsp (4 mL) ground black pepper

Biscuits

1. Make 'cut' biscuit dough.
2. Place the cut biscuits in the oven when you add the bacon grease to the skillet in the gravy procedure below (step 3).
3. Remove from oven after 10 to 12 minutes; the biscuits should be warm when served with the gravy.
4. Gravy
5. Brown the sausage in a large skillet.
6. Remove the browned sausage from the skillet and reserve in a bowl, being careful to leave as much of the drippings as possible in the pan.
7. Add the bacon grease to the skillet, and place the skillet on low to medium-low heat.
8. Once the bacon grease is up to temperature, mix the flour into the grease.
9. Add the milk slowly, mixing as you pour.
10. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly scraping the bottom and edges of the skillet. Stirring keeps the gravy from becoming too lumpy or burnt.
11. Continue stirring until the gravy has nearly reached the desired consistency, usually about 10 minutes.
12. Add the browned sausage held in reserve.
13. Remove from heat and allow to set for 1 minute.
14. Serve with biscuits.
