Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Libby's Canned "Country Sausage Gravy"....

Tried some of this tonight. Wasn't as bad as I was expecting.

Definitely not as good as home-made, but something you could feed to the relatives when they visit, instead of wasting the good stuff.

Anybody else tried it..?

Nope, I just make my own.

Can you share a recipe?

1 pound of your favorite bulk sausage (I like homemade country sausage, or in a pinch Bob Evans or Jimmy Dean)
1/4 to 1/2 cup flour
2 cups milk
salt and lots of pepper to taste
Biscuits or toast or homefries or all of them.

Brown sausage (the browner the better) add equal amount of flour to the fat in the pan and stir in milk. Salt and lots of pepper simmer until thick and delicious! Serve over toast or homefries or biscuits. YUMMY!

Canned gravy, huh? If you think that's weird, try this...

When we usta get collage students on the boat I kept a can o brains on board. For those who weren't quite seasick yet.

I eat a lot of my food right out of the can, no dishes, bowels or microwaving required -
Just a spoon and an open mouth.

This Libby's stuff looks pretty good. I might even serve some on a slice of bread -
If I'm entertaining.

Thanxs for the heads-up.

Easiest thing in the world to make.Being from the south we make gravy out of anything.Ever had squirell gravy,potato gravy,tomato gravy,or chocolate gravy?

I guess it comes from having to scrape and scratch for a living and feed kids on a very limited budget.

As in innards?

Had worked for Libbys for three canning seasons before I went in the Army. My tour was ending and Army regs said you could get an early out for seasonal work. I applied and they turned me down too many returning GI's with drug problems. Well I never worked for Libby's again and have never eaten their products again. I never miss the chance to tell this story and wonder just how many other good working GI's they [bleep] over?

I just had a vision of gluing that can to the hood of my old truck,....after properly waterproofing the label.

Where the hell did THAT come from.....?

Sure would look good parked in front of the organic hippy vegan store, though.

weed I knew you weren't quite right.....

My recipe for sausage gravy is similar to 2bears, but I don't use salt and pepper. Brown breakfast sausage add milk and flour and dust top with poultry seasoning. Try it. You will like it:)

I use this recipe, but I make a double batch.

Sausage Gravy

Ingredients

1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk


Directions

Cook sausage in a cast iron skillet. When done, remove sausage from pan and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat. Whisk flour into the fat and cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and whisk in milk a little at a time. Return to medium-high heat and stir occasionally while the gravy comes to a simmer and thickens. (Be sure to scrape up any brown bits that might be stuck to the bottom of the pan, that's where the flavor is.) Check seasoning, add crumbled sausage and serve over toast or biscuits

Label says it all......from the company that makes DIAL soap..........up in the valley.

My sister got me started eating Campbell's Cream of Chicken soup out of the can. It is really pretty good.

I imagine no bowels are required because it comes back up long before it would be passed on to them.

I haven't tried Libby's brand but Patterson's sausage gravy is actually pretty good. Patterson's is made in NC.

Everyone basically has it, GREAT sausage helps and depending on mood, I will throw some butter in or use half and half.
