Stuffed Sausage Biscuits and Gravy

Biscuits and Gravy: discovered because we put our house up for sale.  After our house sold, there were several inspections, usually scheduled for 8 am. Each time, we would head for a different eating place for breakfast. One of those places had Stuffed Sausage Biscuits and Gravy on the menu. Sooo good that I had to duplicate the recipe at home.   I wouldn’t do this for every morning breakfast (because that’s every person fending for themselves around here!), but for a special day or for guests,  it’s great. Also works for a “breakfast for dinner” meal.

I used Pillsbury Grands Biscuits, but any large biscuit would work well. Flatten with your hands or use a rolling pin – both work.

Add the meat, fold and seal the stuffed biscuit by pinching the edges tightly together so no meat is visible.

Place on your favorite baking sheet. My uncle made this baking sheet for me. It fits perfectly in the oven with just the right amount of space left for air flow. He used a very heavy aluminum that bakes evenly every time. The edges are flat, except the front turns up just enough to give perfect grip with potholders. It’s the first choice every time! I always think of aunt and uncle and my cousin Rita when I pull it out of the cupboard. Makes it even more special.

The gravy recipe is adequate for the amount of meat. I’ve used several different brands of sausage. Some have less grease than others – that’s when the butter trick comes in. If you like lots more gravy, you can 1) Divide the recipe in half and ADD that to the original recipe or 2) Double the recipe for very generous servings of gravy. As with any gravy, if it thickens more than you want go ahead and whisk in additional milk until it reaches the thickness you want.
