Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium pot over medium heat, brown the ground pork sausage for 5–7 minutes, then transfer to the baking dish, blotting excess grease.
  3. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in the sausage drippings, then add 1/4 cup of flour, salt, and pepper. Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes to form a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk into the roux, stirring for about 5-7 minutes until thickened.
  5. Pour the thickened gravy over the browned sausage in the baking dish, ensuring it's evenly spread.
  6. Cut each biscuit into quarters and place them evenly over the gravy.
  7. Bake the casserole for 25–30 minutes until biscuits are golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
