1 lb Bulk pork sausage, sage flav
2 tb Onion -- finely chopped
6 tb Flour
1 qt Milk
1/2 ts Poultry seasoning
1/2 ts Ground nutmeg
1/4 ts Salt
1 d Worcestershire sauce

1. Place sausage in a large, heavy skillet over
medium-low heat. Cook, stirring and breaking the

2. Add onion; cook until soft and transparent, about 4
minutes. Drain, discarding all but 2 tablespoons of
drippings. Return skillet to heat.

3. Sprinkle flour over sausage and stir to coat.
Continue cooking over medium-low heat, stirring until
flour forms a golden-brown crust on the bottom of the
skillet, about 3 minutes.

4. Add milk, poultry seasoning, nutmeg, salt,
Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce. Cook,
stirring, until thickened, about 5 minutes, scraping
up and incorporating the browned crust from bottom of
pan. Reduce heat to low, cover and keep warm.

5. Bake biscuits according to package directions.

6. To serve, split biscuits crosswise and place on
individual plates. Ladle hot sausage gravy over
biscuits and serve immediately.
