Directions:

1. In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until cooked through and nicely browned on both sides, about 15-20 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a platter and set aside.
2. Whisk 1/2 cup flour into the rendered grease in the skillet. Whisk in the milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until slightly thickened, about five minutes. Adjust the gravy's consistency if necessary: If it is too thin, whisk in more flour 1 TBSP at a time, or if it is too thick, add milk 1 TBSP at a time.
3. Stir the sausage into the gravy. Season generously with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
4. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Reheat gently over low heat.
