INGREDIENTS
•
A good sausage gravy (some folks call it milk gravy and others call it Sawmill Gravy) starts with a good quality fresh sausage roll. I use Tennessee Pride, although Rudy's Farm is good too. If you want a spicier gravy use a hot brand of sausage.

•
3 tablespoons shortening, or bacon drippings
