:Yuck:
Slurry instructions:
mix chowder with cold water to make slurry, mix 1 part slurry to 5 parts boiling water, stir, add crumbled sausage.

Its so GD easy, you can do most of it in the microwave or with an electric kettle, it cheap and it actually makes really good gravy.

my wife makes the b&g in our house, but we don't buy tube biscuits any more.  The frozen are better, and more flexible in quantity.

:dunno:
I can forgive the Grand's, they are pretty tasty, and homemade biscuits take a bit of work and experience.

It's just that sausage gravy is super easy to make from scratch and is far superior to any gravy mix.
Gravy:

Step 1: brown sausage in skillet
Step 2: add flour to sausage, enough to absorb the fat
Step 3: add milk (and optionally stock), then cook down until desired consistency.

Season to taste

That mix is essentially flour, dried milk, corn starch, and spices. So just because you put all that super complicated stuff in one by one makes you Emeril Lagasse or something? I don't buy it. Again- great B&G PMS. Would eat again.

I mean, I said specifically it was really easy, so I don't think anyone was claiming Chef status. I would love to chow down on 'head's B&G.  I just believe in a difference between fresh and pre-packaged ingredients when it comes to pretty much any food.
:adios:

I had the worst B&G ever yesterday. They put a layer of egg between the gravy and biscuit. What the eff? Plus the biscuit was awful and the gravy used some sort of weird packaged sausage chunks instead of crumbled sausage. Gross.

Elite sausage gravy involves frying the sausage (spicy of course), adding the flour (make sure you cook down at least a minute to get rid of any floury taste), then starting the gravy with some chicken broth. Let simmer, then add heavy cream or half and half (no measly milk). Then season for taste (namely some salt, pepper, cayenne and perhaps a little thyme) and simmer before pouring over biscuits of your choice.

JMHO.

Next time, just hit it with a little extra milk.

I love hating those stupid cooking videos. Also, what's the point of that particular one? You already made the gravy. Just make biscuits and gravy.
