I got the biscuit part down, but I never did learn how to make sausage gravy the whole 20 some years I was living in Florida. Anybody willing to share a recipe?

you cook the sausage like normal, when its done,, take the grease left over add flour and a lil salt and pepper to taste,, youll see what i mean when your done. you add enough flour to turn it kinda white and nice and thick. keep stiring it the whole time,, cause depending on how you want it to turn out. let it brown slightly. get it to what you want and add water till its the consistancy you want. chop the sausage up into little bits. add to the gravy and serve over the buiscuts

Brown sausage in pan, when its done, add flour to the sausage and grease salt and pepper to taste. The flour should be enough to take away the grease. SO you have sausage, flour in on a low heat in a pan and add milk 2% and then cook till thick


It easy but I have know people who have gone to cooking school but they can't cook it.

Thanks thump and I knew I should have put a disclaimer on that title. She is agnostic, so I should have said great men among men instead.

I'll try 'em all. My kids love it when I try to learn something they like. They were thrilled to smithereens when I was trying to build a horn of plenty out of bread sticks to use as an edible bread basket for rolls for Thanksgiving one year. Thanks for the tip, Very.

How do I go about frying a whole bird? Frying parts, yes, I've done, but the whole bird, how will I know when its done?

You smoke turkeys, CB, I thought they were Marlboros bigsmile

Sorry, really, really bad joke!

Anyway, I've heard of fried turkeys but have never had one. I'm free for Thanksgiving this year (hint, hint). :smile:

Um, just so you know, I tend to be a mite on the impulsive side, I may just show up at your door. laugh laugh I am, however, an excellent guest and an excellent cook so I won't come empty-handed! You're what, Raleigh right, not too far!

I saw your recipe, it sounds great, problem for me is, I live in an apartment and I'm pretty sure I'd be evicted if I actually tried it!
