How to make Sawmill or Sausage Gravy Recipe

There's truly nothing like having gravy with biscuits for breakfast!

 

 Did you know?

 The term "sawmill gravy" comes from early logging camp food and old-time sawmills. It was originally made with cornmeal. This resulted in a somewhat gritty gravy; in fact, rumor has it that the loggers would accuse the cooks of putting sawdust in the recipe! (from thespruceeats.com)

The things that make us go... really??   

(We love food trivia!)

 

Our Kitcheneez Country Gravy mix is creamy (cornmeal-free), delicious and can be made with or without adding sausage. Enjoy!
