Country gravy
1/2 lb bacon
1/2 lb sausage
1 onion chopped
brown sausage and bacon with onion
while browning you may want to add thyme, a bay leaf, and a pinch of sage
add milk (I put in a little above browned sausage)
a pinch of nutmeg
bring just to a boil and set to simmer
[check seasonings while heating up]
mash together into a paste butter and flour (if u warm the butter in the microwave it helps)
with milk just above simmer add flour-butter and whisk in (a whisk breaks up the butter-flour better) until you get desired thickness
you might notice it looks a little grainy. if you add a little heavy cream it will round out the look of the gravy
