Anyone have a good recipe for this?

The biscuits are going to be the hardest part, I still can't make a biscuit that I have deemed satisfactory. Good luck, I'll be following this one for ideas as well.

I keep the gravy very simple, but I recommend using Wondra flour, best gravy flour there is.

Cook sausage, remove sausage, leave 2-4 tablespoons grease, add 3 tablespoons flour, stir until brown, add some milk to desired thickness (1 cup?),stir, salt and pepper to taste, add sausage back in, stir again and your good to go.

The southern style frozen biscuits from Schwan's are really good. Keep frozen and just pop a few in the oven. They are similair in taste and texture to the Kentucky Fried Chicken one's.. DrJ.

Funny you should post that question. We are in the process of planning the grouse camp menu.

Biscuits and Gravy are a yearly tradition in both Grouse and Deer camp. I make them the first morning of each camp and the gravy is eaten over everything for the next several days.

Biscuits are normally some Pillsbury brand.

The gravy I learned to make from some crusty old firefighters down in AZ (I was the young rook then) and it is not healthy!!

I cook about a pound of jimmy dean in a large pot. Next to that I begin frying a pound of bacon. When the sausage and bacon are done I add about 1/2 of the bacon grease to the pot with the sausage...add flour to the sausage and grease combo stirring to make a roux. Next I begin to add the milk and begin to stir. Season to taste, and cook to desired thickness. Presto!! Stick to your ribs heart healthy gravy...

Good thing it is only made twice per year! Works on biscuits, hash browns, toast, eggs, veni straps, left over grouse breast etc...

Thanks all! I got a recipe off foodNetwork that is pretty much exactly as you mentioned. Will it be as good if I pre-make the gravy? Say tomorrow night.

We eat that gravy (re-heated)for three days. You get mad props for making it right there at camp...lol but you do get pretty darn stinky

I've had it before. Got the mega-pack of Charmin last night.

I use a Betty Crocker recipe for biscuits.

Get a dough cutter or pastry blender, it makes it a lot easier to mix your ingredients.

Key things to remember is follow the recipe. Each ingredient has a purpose. Mix your dry ingredients well and add the shortening. Mix that up until you have a grainy texture. Then FOLD in your liquid about a third at a time. It's important NOT to overwork the mixture at this point.

Spoon the mixture onto a cooking pan and cook until the biscuits are golden brown.
