Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ ------------
3 pounds bulk sausage -- (Jimmy Dean is a good brand)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 cups chicken broth
4 cups milk
salt and freshly-ground black pepper
Cook the sausage in a large skillet over high heat until it is no longer pink. Transfer it to the insert of a 5 to 7-quart cooker. Add the flour, sage, and thyme to the same skillet and cook for 3 minutes, whisking constantly.
Whisk in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Transfer the mixture to the slow cooker and stir in the milk. Cover and cook on LOW for 2 hours. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve from the cooker set on warm.
Makes about 7 cups (14 one-half cup servings).
AuthorNote: When my daughter attended college in the South, I became a connoisseur of sausage gravy and would try it at most of the breakfast place while visiting. I decided that the quality of the gravy definitely depended on the quality of the sausage, so make sure to sue a good-quality sausage when you make this. Keep it warm in the slow cooker serving biscuits and eggs for breakfast. It's a real crowd pleaser!
ChupaNote: spice this up with lots of red pepper flakes, fennel seed, and kosher salt. I used ground turkey meat, to cut the fat, and it was lovely. A teaspoon each of thyme, sage and fennel seed wasn't enough; it probably ended being closer to 1 tablespoon each. I like spicy food, so split the difference and use 1 1/2 teaspoons each.
