I just had to make this. The memories came flooding back.

I made several mistakes as I keep getting distracted. The first thing I did was make the sausage mixture using the recipe sara suggested.http://homesicktexan.blogspot.com.au/2008/02/breakfast-sausage-to-begin-day.html I uses I 900 gms minced pork.

First mistake was I tipped too much white pepper into it. Second mistake tipped too much sage into it. Never mind.

I then  followed Joyce's recipe except  when adding the flour I forgot to set the temp . Third mistake followed by the fourth mistake. I added the milk and forgot to set the temp. After about 10 minutes of stirring I realised what I had done so added some  more flour, put the heat on and kept it a stirring on reverse. Very bad mistake  number 5......... But  would you believe  that after another 15 minutes with the temp actually on  the damn thing came together. When I opened the lid there was a small round circle or the flour which had not combined. It looked like a little cake. I have not seen that before. I just picked it off and dumped it.

Also made a mistake  when making the biscuits by adding the butter  too early.  The biscuits did not  rise as they hold have but no matter.

I made the rest of the sausage mince into parties.

Delicious meal Joyce. The THERMOTHINGY is very forgiving  and my Aussie DH didn't know the difference.

See ifi can insert a pic with Tapatalk. Not as an appealing photo as Joyce but just to show.

OMG I saw this on the web and read your blog. OMG I love this recipe. I wish I could  get American style pork sausage. Dashingden have ya seen this one? Remember pork sausage!!!!!!!!

I have some pork sausage patties in my freezer. We made biscuits and gravy when my BIL was visiting. I found a recipe online. It was not hard to make just pork mince, sage cloves and some other spices.

Gert--I'm so excited you made my recipe!!!  That's a first for me.  [Smiling from ear to ear.]  Re: the biscuits, did you put both baking powder and baking soda in them?  Just wondering.  :-)

Cook on!!
