Ingredients

• 1 Biscuit Recipe (click link for my favorite recipe)
• Country Sausage Gravy
• 12 oz. sausage
• 3 Tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup flour
• 3 cups milk
• 2 chicken bullion cubes
• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
• ground pepper to taste
• HOMEMADE BISCUITS
• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 Tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 Tablespoons butter
• 3/4 to 1 cup buttermilk

Preparation

Step 1

Cook sausage, drain and set aside.
In a medium size saucepan melt the butter over medium heat and then add the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the milk, and crumble the bullion cubes between your fingers into the sauce. Stir until thickened. Add sausage back to gravy. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Cut biscuits in half and pour gravy over the top.

HOMEMADE BISCUITS
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baaking powder and salt. Cut in butter with a fork until mixture is crumbly. Slowly add ¾ cup buttermilk and mix just until it forms a ball. DO NOT OVERMIX! Add more buttermilk if necessary. (Depending on your elevation the amount of buttermilk may vary.) Roll dough ½" thick on a floured board and use a biscuit cutter to make about 10 biscuits.
Bake at 450 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown. When done, remove from oven and brush the tops of biscuits with melted butter.
