Recipe by: George Graham 
Serves: 4 

Ingredients 

For the gravy: 

• 1 pound breakfast sausage (or Cajun sausage for more kick)  
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour  
• 2 cups whole milk  
• 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning  
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper  
• 1/2 teaspoon salt  
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)  

For serving: 

• 6–8 biscuits (store-bought or homemade)  
• 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional)  

Instructions 

1. Cook the sausage 
   In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned, breaking it into small pieces. 
   Leave the grease in the pan — that’s flavor.  
2. Make the roux 
   Sprinkle flour over the sausage and stir constantly for 2–3 minutes until it forms a light roux.  
3. Add the milk 
   Slowly pour in milk while stirring to avoid lumps. 
   Keep stirring as it thickens.  
4. Season it up 
   Add Cajun seasoning, black pepper, salt, and cayenne. 
   Simmer 5–7 minutes until thick and creamy.  
5. Serve 
   Split biscuits open and spoon gravy generously over the top. 
   Garnish with green onions if you want a little color.
