Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add buttermilk all at once. Using a fork, stir just until moistened.

  • Sprinkle all-purpose flour over meat mixture; stir into the meat mixture. Cook and stir over medium heat for 1 minute. While whisking, gradually add milk. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 1 minute more. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in snipped fresh thyme, if desired. Makes about 5 cups.

  • Prepare biscuits as directed; cool completely. Place biscuits in a resealable plastic freezer bag; seal, label, and freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Prepare sausage gravy as directed. Place in an airtight container; seal and chill for up to 48 hours. To serve, thaw biscuits at room temperature (allow about 2 hours). If desired, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place biscuits on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. In a medium saucepan reheat sausage gravy over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until heated through. If necessary, stir in additional milk to make desired consistency.

BISCUITS AND SAGE SAUSAGE GRAVY



Biscuits and Sage Sausage Gravy image

WARNING:You will want to lick the plate clean after tasting these biscuits and gravy! It has been a family recipes for over 110 years. I find using the fatty sausage mild or hot from Jimmy Dean works great. He has a sage sausage but I never use it. It just doesn't taste as good. Enjoy!

Categories     Breads

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb sausage
3 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup flour
pepper
salt
2 tablespoons ground sage

Steps:

  • Fry sausage in large skillet. Crumble sausage as you go.
  • Add sage.
  • When sausage is completely cooked, add flour a little at a time soaking up the grease from the sausage. Stir it around. DO NOT DRAIN GREASE! Depending on how lean your sausage is you may need more or less flour. More will make it thicker. If the sausage is too lean, cut back on the milk.
  • Keeping burner on medium low heat, Add milk a little at a time. Constantly stirring.
  • Add cream. Your gravy should be thickening. If it is too thin, add some flour and small amount of milk in a cup. Stir and add slowly until desired gravy thickness is achieved.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. The more pepper you add, the more the flavor comes out and makes your gravy a little hotter.
  • Pour over fresh hot biscuits. Warning: They may lick the plate clean!

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     breakfast, weekday, main course

Time 25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound bulk pork breakfast sausage
¼ cup all-purpose flour, or instant flour like Wondra
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
2½ cups whole milk
Salt to taste
ground sage to taste (optional)
ground fennel to taste (optional)
ground red pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Set a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat and cook the sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until it is loose and no longer pink, approximately 10 minutes. Taste sausage and adjust seasonings - you may wish to add sage and fennel aggressively.
  • Sprinkle the flour and pepper over the sausage and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour has been absorbed by the fat and has gathered its flavors close, approximately 2 to 5 minutes.
  • Slowly stir in the milk and cook at a bare simmer until the gravy gets thick and the roux covers the back of a spoon. If it is too thick for your liking add more milk and stir. Check seasonings and serve over split or roughly crumbled biscuits.

CORNMEAL SAGE BISQUICK BISCUITS



Cornmeal Sage Bisquick Biscuits image

These are the perfect biscuits for biscuits and gravy (unlike most biscuits, these are toothsome and plain enough to stand up to lashings of salty, sausage-y gravy). I actually made them with the Heart Smart Bisquick. The recipe is slightly changed from bettycrocker.com.

Provided by CorriePDX

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 3/4 cups Bisquick baking mix
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal (coarse-ground)
2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon dried sage, crumbled
garlic salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450ºF.
  • Stir Bisquick, cornmeal, milk, and the sage and garlic salt until soft dough forms.
  • Drop by 12 spoonfuls onto parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cornmeal, buttermilk, and herbs will give your biscuits and gravy the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Let the dough rest: Letting the dough rest for a few minutes before rolling it out will help the biscuits rise better.
  • Cook the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the biscuits rise quickly and evenly.
  • Make the gravy ahead of time: The gravy can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve it.
  • Serve the biscuits and gravy warm: Biscuits and gravy are best served warm, so make sure to reheat them if you're making them ahead of time.

Conclusion:

These cornmeal-sage biscuits and sausage gravy are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch recipe. The biscuits are light and fluffy, with a slightly crispy exterior, and the gravy is rich and flavorful. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
