List of Ingredients



• 1 pound Jimmy Dean sage sausage
  
• 3-4 tbsp. flour
  
• extra butter as needed *
  
• 2 cups fresh milk
  
• 1 can evaporated milk
  
• splash of worcestershire sauce
  
• splash of tabasco (optional)
  
• salt & pepper to taste
  
• .
  
• * JD sausage is lean; extra butter is often needed. If your favorite sausage renders more fat, you not only won't need butter, you may need to spoon off excess fat before adding the flour.
  






Instructions



1. Crumble & brown sausage in large skillet, add flour and butter, continue cooking while scraping bottom of skillet to prevent burning.
   
   
2. As flour begins to brown, add milk and seasonings; continue cooking until thickened, stirring constantly.
   
   
3. Cook 3-4 more minutes, thinning with more milk if necessary.
   
   
4. Serve hot over your favorite fresh-from-the-oven biscuits.

7. * 1 cup flour
   * 1/4 tsp. salt
   * 1/2 tsp. baking soda
   * 2 tsp. baking powder
   * 1/4 cup cold butter, diced in cubes
   * 1-1/2 to 2 cups sourdough starter, as needed
   
   
8. Combine dry ingredients & cut in butter until mixture looks like coarse meal. At this point you can store the mixture in the fridge until you get ready for fresh biscuits.
   
   
9. Once you feed your starter & it has frothed up well, add a coupla cups of it to the butter/flour mixture and stir until it pulls away from the bowl. It may require more or less than directed, depending on how thick or runny your starter is - just don't make it too sticky & do not overmix.
   
   
10. Now you can either dump it out on the lightly-floured counter, press it out about an inch thick & cut with a good sharp biscuit cutter & place on an ungreased baking sheet (your biscuits will rise higher if you use a sharp cutter and be sure not to twist as you cut). If your preference is for drop biscuits, just drop the dough by spoonfuls on an ungreased baking sheet.
    
    
11. In either case, bake the little beauties for about 10-12 minutes at 425F, until they're lightly browned.
