Method

For the Biscuits

1. Combine together the dry ingredients (flour, salt and baking soda).

2. Add the butter, buttermilk/yogurt and knead the dough. (Do not over knead the dough. This will make the biscuits tough.)

3. Pat and flatten the dough to a 1 " thick mass.

4. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter. 

5. Place them on a parchment paper on a baking tray and bake in a oven preheated to 400-degrees. 

6. Remove in 8-10 minutes when the biscuits are golden in color.

For the Gravy

1. Heat a pan and saute the sausage/ground meat until it is cooked.

2. Remove the sausage and add the butter to the same pan.

3. Then add the flour a little at a time whisking constantly.  Cook for about 2-3 minutes.

4. Now add the cold milk a little by little, whisking continuously. 

5. When the milk starts to thicken, add the sausage/ground meat back along with salt and pepper to taste. 

6. Cut the biscuit in half, pour the gravy over it and enjoy.
