good recipe for sausage biscuits over gravy

As sad as it may seem to most out there, my wife gets the sausage & gravy at the store (frozen) and adds a can of corn to the mix. The biscuits come from a tube. It's so good I make sure there are no leftovers.
 
Is there a recipe? I do home made baking powder biscuits and cast iron skillet gravy. The secret is the flour. I use Red Star seasoned flour (from a mill in Salina KS) and you don't need to season it in any way. No salt or anything.

Everyone swears my biscuits are to die for but they aren't anything special. I believe I wrote down the recipe from a Betty Crocker cookbook moons ago.
 
Quick and easy. This is for one person. Two sourdough biscuits from the bakery.
3/4 cup milk and water half and half. Wisk in 6-8 big tbsp of country gravy mix. You can find it in bulk(4 lb bags and it's 1/10 the cost of the envelopes. (dry)put on low heat. In small Cast iron skillet brown up two little pork sausages. Then smash and chop into small pieces. Then add them to your gravy which is now just beginning to simmer. Use a flat wood spatula to keep gravy from scorching. 10 minutes tops.
I also buy about 1 lb of ground pork sausage and then split into about 10 small portions on fold over sandwich bags and freeze for gravy. I make this about every 5 days.
 
I brown 1pound sausage, I use hot as the milk and flour will take some of the spice out. Drain the grease then sprinkle about 6 table spoons of flour on meat and stir the meat until coated with flour. Add milk until the skillet is full probably about a quart and a half. Heat and stir until thick. Don't add flour straight to the milk as it will clump and you have dry flour balls in your gravy that won't break down. Biscuits I just get can biscuits jumbo butter milk. I don't care for the flakey.
 
1/2 pound of seasoned sausage, browned, 1/4 cup flour, 2 and 1/2 cups of milk. A little more flower and milk if you like more gravy. Brown the sausage. When it is done, turn heat to low, and add the flour and milk, stirring to desired consistency.
 
I normally prefer home cooking but, the BEST gravy I've had is from Farmers Brothers normally sold to restaurants but available on certain days at the distributors or online. The wife cooks up some Jimmy Dean sausage, adds some to the gravy, with patties on the side. GREAT STUFF!
 
Those canned biscuits are the quick and easy way to go but the hard part is getting them in the can in the first place
 
I start with a half pound of Jimmy Dean pork sausage, cook it up.
Scoop the meat out of the pan and ad a quarter cup of butter to
the pan. Stir it into the sausage grease.
Then I ad about a quarter cup All Purpose flour. Keep stirring
till slightly browned. Stir the sausage back in.
Ad about two cups whole milk and bring to a boil stirring continuously.
Grind in black pepper and about 4 or 5 shakes of Lea & Perrins
Worcestershire Sauce.[Had to get the bottle from fridge to spell]
Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

Good Luck with Your breakfast!

Brown a pound of sausage, as soon as it's done (don't overcook) remove sausage from skillet leaving grease/drippings.

Add and melt 1/2 to a stick of butter in the skillet.

When butter is melted add flour (1/2 to a cup...how much gravy do you want?), keep stirring flour in grease until browned.

Start adding milk, a pour at a time, stirring continuously, until gravy stops getting thicker.

Add sausage back in, let it simmer a while, eat

Hope this works...been doing it so long by eyeballing it that I really don't know the measured amounts. I just gauge it by how many people I'm feeding (Wife doesn't like gravy...a major character defect, I know, so I make it).

Good thing is you can still eat the mistakes, and change how you do it next time.

Wife is the gravy master, she does that part. Best biscuits come right from the Bisquik box, just follow the recipe o the side of the box. That's my part, we both eat the results.
