Ingredients for Easy Sausage Gravy Recipe
Ground pork sausage – Also known as bulk or breakfast sausage. This is also available in a spicy or hot variety, which adds a little kick to your gravy! Then there’s the Spicy Sausage Gravy = YUM!
Butter – This adds a touch of richness, and doesn’t butter make everything better?
All-purpose flour combines the ingredients and thickens the gravy.
Whole milk – I highly recommend using whole milk to achieve that extra rich and creamy texture and flavor. You can use whichever milk you like, but I’ve found that whole milk yields the finest results.
Garlic powder – This enhances the flavor and just requires a small amount to add that something extra you’re looking for. It’s not overbearing, just deliciously subtle!
Salt and pepper – Of course, some S&P is required to round out the flavors. Specks of ground pepper throughout the gravy indicate a high-quality gravy. Make sure to taste it before adding salt. Some ground pork is more salty than others!
