Step by step

Method

6 steps

1
Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high 7 to 8 minutes, breaking it into small crumbles, until no pink remains. Leave the fat in the pan.
2
If the pan looks dry, add the butter and let it melt.
3
Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir 1 to 2 minutes so it soaks up the fat and loses its raw taste.
4
Slowly pour in the milk and half and half, stirring constantly.
5
Add the garlic salt, sage, seasoned salt, and pepper. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes, stirring, until thick enough to coat a spoon. Thin with a splash of milk if needed.
6
Taste for salt and serve hot over biscuits.
