One-Pot Sausage Gravy
One-Pot Sausage Gravy
My Mom has always made the best sausage gravy and biscuits. Growing up that was one of my favorites that she made. I remember going out to breakfast and ordering sausage gravy but every time I would think – “Why did I order this? It’s nothing like Mom’s!!” . . . haha. You can’t beat homemade when it comes to this ultimate breakfast meal. Or, dinner meal, since around here, we love breakfast for dinner!
Recently, I shadowed Mom as she made her famous sausage gravy so that I would be able to recreate it. I’m getting married in the fall and I wanna know all of Mom’s cooking secrets and shortcuts and recipes 😉
The thing I love about this sausage gravy is it’s all in ONE PAN. One pan meals are riiiiight up my alley!
(I’ll give you a quick overview of what to do here but the full instructions are at the end so scroll down for the recipe!)
- You start by browning the sausage (with the pepper) in the pot (I used our Dutch oven because it’s perfect for one-pot meals).

- Then you add your flour. You’ll use anywhere between 1/2 cup and 1 cup depending on how greasy your meat is. You’re going to want to get as close to equal amounts of fat and flour as possible. So start off by adding a little, and then continuing adding flour until it looks like the grease has all been absorbed.
- And then you slowly whisk in your milk.
- Stir everything and let it thicken for about 10-12 minutes. Add salt if needed.
- Serve over warm biscuits!
