Sausage gravy is a rich, creamy comfort food rooted in Southern American cuisine, often served over biscuits as a traditional breakfast dish. This hearty gravy is made by cooking ground pork sausage with seasonings like black pepper, then whisking in flour and milk to create a thick, flavorful sauce. While it provides protein from the sausage and calcium from the milk, it is also high in saturated fat, sodium, and calories, which can contribute to health concerns if consumed in excess. Lighter alternatives, such as using lean turkey sausage or low-fat milk, can make it a healthier choice. Known for its indulgent and savory flavor, sausage gravy remains a popular dish for gatherings and special occasions but is best enjoyed mindfully as part of a balanced diet.
