Ree Drummond has become one of my favorite cooks to watch. Like the majority of us, she is just a common person that tries to make meals that are not only tasty but also budget-friendly. Growing up, Sausage Gravy was a meal that I would consider a treat.
My Mom did not make it too often as my Dad was not a fan of gravy. Odd, I know! However, she would make this at least a couple of times a month for us.

Sausage Gravy does not have to be just for biscuits! This wonderful gravy and meat can be served with potatoes or rice also. That was one way my Mom snuck this delicious meal to us. She made it into a Rice Casserole. She said in this way, there were heaps of gravy that Dad would notice.
The Sausage Gravy is somewhat customizable. You could use a variety of flavored Sausages which could change it up completely.
Plus, it’s hearty and filling, perfect for keeping you fueled up until lunchtime.

What is the difference between White Gravy and Country Gravy?
White gravy is a simple mix of a roux made of flour and fat, then milk is stirred in until the desired consistency is reached. Country gravy is made from the milk and pan drippings from the meat, thickened and some people add in Fresh Ground Black pepper. Either way, both gravies are used for sausage and biscuits.

It’s always been a favorite at our house. I have made it for years, never measuring anything. I don’t use the garlic though. My husband actually likes it a bit better made the same way but with hamburger instead of sausage. I always finish that one up with a good dollop of sour cream at the end for a very stroganoff-esqe taste.
I also make this with hamburger and add dice potatoes and serve over toast, it’s delicious.
