Ingredients:

• 1 lb breakfast sausage
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 cups milk
• 1 tsp Slap Ya Mama seasoning
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• Salt, to taste

Instructions:

1. Cook the Sausage:

   • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Cook until it is browned and no longer pink. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.

2. Make the Roux:

   • Add the butter to the skillet with the sausage drippings and melt over medium heat.
   • Sprinkle the flour over the melted butter and whisk continuously for about 2-3 minutes, until the mixture is lightly browned and has a nutty aroma.

3. Add Milk and Seasonings:

   • Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure to smooth out any lumps.
   • Continue to cook and whisk the mixture until it begins to thicken, about 5-7 minutes.

4. Season the Gravy:

   • Add the Slap Ya Mama seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir to combine.
   • Return the cooked sausage to the skillet, mixing it into the gravy.

5. Simmer and Serve:

   • Reduce the heat to low and let the gravy simmer for a few more minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
   • Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
   • Serve the sausage and gravy hot over biscuits, toast, or your favorite breakfast base.
