Sausage Gravy For A Crowd Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour and whisk until smooth, at least 2 minutes. Slowly add milk, whisking continuously until mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Stir half-and-half into the saucepan; season with salt and pepper. Add liquid smoke. Cook and stir until gravy is smooth and slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Steps:

• Crumble sausage into a large saucepan; cook over medium-low heat. Add onion; cook and stir until transparent. Drain, discarding all but 2 tablespoons of drippings. Stir in flour; cook over medium-low heat about 6 minutes or until mixture bubbles and turns golden. Stir in milk. Add seasonings; cook, stirring, until thickened. To serve, slice biscuits and spoon gravy over halves.

Steps:

• With your finger, tear small pieces of sausage and add them in a single layer to a large heavy skillet. Brown the sausage over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Sprinkle on half the flour and stir so that the sausage soaks it all up, then add more little by little. Stir it around and cook it for another minute or so, then pour in the milk, stirring constantly.
• Cook the gravy, stirring frequently, until it thickens. (This may take a good 10 to 12 minutes.) Sprinkle in the seasoned salt and pepper and continue cooking until very thick and luscious. If it gets too thick too soon, just splash in another 1/2 cup of milk or more if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Spoon the sausage gravy over warm biscuits and serve immediately!

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, break it up with a wooden spoon, and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned and cooked through, about 7 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a bowl, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet. Whisk the flour into the fat and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute. While whisking, pour the milk into the skillet and bring the gravy to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer gently for 2 minutes. Stir in the sausage and season with pepper. Split the biscuits in half and divide them among plates. Top each biscuit with some of the gravy and serve immediately.
• To make the biscuits: Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with two layers of parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Rub 2 tablespoons of the butter into the flour with your fingertips until completely absorbed. Work the remaining butter into the flour until it is in even pieces about the size of a pea. Gently stir the milk into the flour mixture to make a loose dough.
• Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour and turn the dough out onto it. Pat the dough into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds like a business letter. (For a flakier biscuit repeat the folding a second time.) Pat the dough into a 5 by 8-inch rectangle about 3/4-inch thick. Use a 2- to 3-inch round cutter to make 6 biscuits, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet. Press together the scraps of dough and cut 2 more biscuits.
• To make the glaze: Mix the cream and melted butter together in a small bowl. Lightly brush the tops of the biscuits with the glaze. Bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool on a rack for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• brown and crumble the italian and pork sausage in a big pot.
• Cook and crumble the bacon and add to the pot with some of the drippings.
• Add the butter or margarine if there is not a lot of grease.
• DO NOT DRAIN.
• Add the flour to the pan with the sausage to make a sort of roux.
• Cook over medium low for about 5-10 minutes.
• Add the milk and cook for about 10-15 minutes until thick.
• Thin with milk as needed.
• Season with some of the ham base, salt, and pepper as you desire.

Steps:

• You will need a very large pot to make this gravy.
• Put sausage into pot, add 1-2 quarts of water.
• Stir to break meat up very fine while bringing to a boil.
• When cooked through, strain the water off of the meat.
• Return meat to the pan and add shortening; brown the meat till it starts to look crispy.
• Add flour and cook until flour is browned, stir often so you don't let it burn (use low heat).
• Add seasonings.
• Using large whisk stir the first gallon of milk into the flour and turn up heat,while remaining to stir constantly.
• Once it thickens, add the kitchen bouquet and the can of evaporated milk.
• Stir to mix and bring to a boil.
• Next you may add the other half gallon of milk as you need it, to get your gravy to the consistency that you like. (Remember, gravy must come to a boil before you know how thick it is or isn't going to be).
• If after all your milk has been added, its still too thick, then add a bit of water and bring it back to a boil.
• Add liquid to thin gravy a little bit at a time.
• It is easier to thin than to rethicken properly.
• Once it is to the consistency you like and has come to a boil again,then it's done.
• Taste to see if it needs more salt.
• Adjust if need be and serve over biscuits, toast, fried potatoes or mashed potatoes.
• To freeze cool completely then package and freeze.
• Will keep 3-6 months in freezer.
