BUTTERMILK SAUSAGE GRAVY

Buttermilk Sausage Gravy image

This is my husband's recipe that was handed down to him by his grandmother. His grandmother stated that you must use Farmer John® sausage and bacon drippings or it would not taste as delicious as hers. It was never written down, just a pinch of this and a handful of that. I finally got him to measure everything and this is the result.
