Preparation:
Step 1: Begin by tearing small pieces of sausage and placing them in a single layer in a large, heavy skillet. Brown the sausage over medium-high heat until it loses its pink hue. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
Sprinkle half of the flour over the sausage, stirring to ensure it's absorbed. Gradually add more flour, stirring continuously. Allow it to cook for another minute, then pour in the milk, stirring constantly.
Cook the gravy, stirring frequently, until it thickens—a process that may take about 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle in the seasoned salt and pepper, continuing to cook until the mixture reaches a luxurious thickness. If it thickens too quickly, simply add another 1/2 cup of milk or more if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
Spoon the indulgent sausage gravy generously over warm biscuits and serve immediately. Feel free to double the recipe to delight in this comforting Southern classic with a crowd of 24. Get ready to savor the warmth and nostalgia with every delightful bite!
