- Add the Milk:
- Gradually pour in 3 cups of whole milk, stirring constantly. The mixture will start to thicken as it comes to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium.
- Season the Gravy:
- Add the seasoned salt and black pepper. Stir well and taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed. If the gravy is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more milk until you reach your desired consistency. Remember, the gravy will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Serve:
- Once the gravy is thick and creamy, remove it from the heat. Serve hot over freshly baked biscuits. This gravy is best enjoyed immediately while it’s warm and velvety.
Tips:
- For the Sausage: You can use any type of breakfast sausage you like. If you prefer a spicier gravy, go for a hot or spicy sausage.
- Milk Temperature: Adding cold milk to the hot pan can cause the gravy to clump. To avoid this, you can let the milk sit out for a bit to take the chill off or warm it slightly before adding it to the pan.
- Consistency: The key to a perfect gravy is its consistency, which you can adjust by adding more milk if it’s too thick or cooking it longer if it’s too thin.
- Serving Suggestion: While biscuits are the traditional pairing, this sausage gravy is also delicious over fried chicken, mashed potatoes, or even as a base for a savory breakfast bowl.
