BAKED FARMER SAUSAGE, POTATOES, AND CARROTS WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• If desired, peel frozen farmer sausage. (The best way is to hold it under a trickle of warm water.) Break sausage into 4-6 chunks.
• Place potatoes and carrots into a roaster or large casserole dish. Add water to cover the bottom of the dish.
• Place frozen sausage chunks over top (so drippings will flavour the vegetables), cover, and bake at 375F for 1-1/2 hours.
• Remove from oven and drain juices from casserole dish into a saucepan. (You may want to put the sausage and vegetables in a serving dish now and keep warm in the oven.).
• For gravy: Mix flour and milk together, adding milk gradually so a paste forms and slowly gets thicker -- you don't want lumps! (Actually, a Tupperware gravy shaker works best for this. You can just throw it all together and shake it up without worrying about lumps at all.).
• Add milk mixture to drippings and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until gravy is thickened. (Depending on how much water content your sausage had, you may need to add a little more flour or milk to achieve the desired thickness.).
• Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

SAUSAGE IN POTATO GRAVY

• Use raw link sausage- the kind that is in a casing- usually about 12" long and attached together to make an oval shape. Any type is fine- beef, pork, game, mixed etc.
• Brown the raw sausage over medium high heat in a little oil to prevent sticking. Watch carefully so it does not burn. Reduce heat if necessary.
• While sausage is browning slice onions into rings or about 1/4" think. You can dice or chop if you prefer.
• Also peel and cut potatoes into 1"-2" pieces. The peel can be left on if desired.
• Cook sausage until brown on both sides. do not worry if about whether it is cooked through. It will continue to cook in the remaining steps.
• Add sliced onion when browning second side of sausage.
• When sausage has browned on both sides add water, potatoes, salt and pepper.
• Reduce heat to medium or medium low.
• Cook until potatoes are tender stirring frequently and adding more water if needed. Cover if desired to retain steam and heat and prevent water from evaporating.
• The potatoes will thicken the juices and water and make it's own gravy.
• Taste for seasoning, adding more if desired.

SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Pour off most of the fat from the pan, leaving about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Return pan to medium-low heat and add flour. Using a whisk, stir vigorously until roux forms, scraping bottom of pan. Reduce heat to low and let roux cook at least 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Grandma always "burned" hers a little on purpose.
• Add milk in a stream, whisking the whole time. After adding about 2 1/2 cups, turn heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring constantly. Bring gravy to a boil and cook to desired thickness. Add more milk if a thinner gravy is desired. You may also add some of the cooked and crumbled sausage to the gravy.

Bring heat up to medium-high for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sauce bubbles up to the top of the pan (do not allow it to boil over).
• Reduce heat to medium-low, stirring the sauce frequently until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Serve over cooked grits or biscuits, and top with green onions.
