Ree says this is the favorite meal of every cowboy working on Drummond ranch. It’s pure comfort food for them, as they ate it as children, but it is hearty too, so on a long day of working cattle, it gives them sustenance.

Ingredients
- 1 pound spicy breakfast sausage
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk, plus more as needed
- 2 teaspoons freshly cracked tri-color peppercorns, plus more for serving
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 8 biscuits, warmed, for serving (frozen, canned or homemade)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle over the flour and stir until the sausage is well coated and the flour is slightly cooked, about 1 minute.
- Slowly add the milk, stirring. Allow the gravy to simmer and thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with the pepper, kosher salt and seasoning salt. If it gets too thick, thin to your desired consistency with additional milk.
- To serve, tear a biscuit or two into bite-size pieces and place on a plate. Spoon over the sausage gravy. Serve immediately with more pepper over the top.

I started using this recipe when my son asked me to make it. And it is great! Easy to make and delicious. This is now my go-to recipe for biscuits and gravy. Thank you!
I grew up on biscuits and gravy just like Chuck. This is such an easy rendition and really tasty. The extra pepper is a must too. Thanks for the memories. Chuck was a treasure to your audience too, Ree.
This recipe was easy & soooo, delicious. Thanks Ree.❤
