    I never knew how easy it was to make biscuits and gravy. This recipe is easy and delicious. My husband loves it and though he doesn't cook, will make this recipe.

    Just made this...my first time making any type of gravy. It was very easy and delicious. I will say that you must salt and pepper it well as it is very bland. Of course, the amount of seasoning depends on the sausage you use and your personal taste.

    Excellent! Hubby was trying to talk the kids out of their portions as he liked it so much! Added a dollop of butter as I didn't have enough drippings, and I used mild italian sausage instead of breakfest sausage. Thanks for a great recipe Alton!

    I followed this recipe exactly except I added quite a bit of black pepper, garlic powder, and salt. I guess my sausage was a bit under-seasoned and that's why I needed the extra seasoning. I made homemade biscuits to go with it and it was deeeeee-licious!
    Thanks Alton - - - miss your show :-(

    uuummmm, uuuuummmm, goood! used the gravy recipe to make chipped beef on buiscuts. Turned out exactly like my moms. Instead of sausage drippings I used regular ol' canola oil.

    I didn't use a cast iron pan nor did I get a full 2 tbs. of fat from the sausage. To make the gravy I added some extra oil and a little of the milk. It worked just fine. This is delicious! I made it with his Southern Buscuits and both were so easy! Move over Bob Evans!

    I usually cook bacon instead of sausage. Find it renders more fat and bacon is liked by family more than sausage. One review says they use bacon instead and it was very useful as a confirmation of bacon instead of sausage. Good recipe though. Found after using more than one type of pan, that all county gravies taste better made in cast iron skillet. Thanks.

    Simply delicious. Try it with chirizo for a nice kick.

    Simple and good.

    I find that most sausage you buy today doesn't leave the two tablespoons of fat, so I use bacon grease.
