Method
Biscuits
Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add Milk
Stir in the milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
Shape and Bake
Turn the dough onto a floured surface, pat to 1-inch thickness, and cut out biscuits. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes until golden.
Gravy
Cook Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
Make Roux
Add flour to the sausage, stirring to combine. Cook for about 1 minute to eliminate raw flour taste.
Add Milk
Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Sausage Links
Cook Sausage Links
In a separate skillet, cook the sausage links over medium heat, turning occasionally until browned and heated through, about 10-12 minutes.
Scrambled Eggs
Breakfast Potatoes
Prepare Potatoes
Dice the potatoes into small cubes and soak in water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
