Certainly! Here’s a basic recipe for Pioneer Sausage Gravy:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground breakfast sausage (such as pork sausage)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Cook the sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart into crumbles with a spatula as it cooks. This usually takes about 8-10 minutes.
- Make the gravy: Once the sausage is cooked, sprinkle the flour evenly over the sausage in the skillet. Stir continuously to combine the flour with the sausage fat, creating a roux. Cook the roux for about 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
- Add the milk: Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Continue stirring until the mixture comes to a simmer and begins to thicken. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.
- Season: Once the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency, season with salt and black pepper to taste. Keep in mind that the sausage is already seasoned, so you may not need much additional salt.
- Serve: Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the sausage gravy hot over biscuits, toast, or mashed potatoes.
