This is soooooo good, the ultimate comfort food! My dad always used to call this type of gravy, "Sawmill" and it goes so well with this tender, fried pork. I have to fix this quite often, because it's one of my husband's favorites. I like to serve it with cream cheese mashed potatoes and collard greens. This is just something...

Steps:
- 1. Dredge cubed pork pieces in flour and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine egg and milk. Dip pork in milk and egg mixture and coat with remaining flour. You may use a little more flour, if necessary.
- 2. Heat oil in large skillet (I use a cast iron skillet). When hot, add a couple of pork pieces at a time and fry to golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and fry for about 3 more minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towels. (Note that cooking time may be slightly longer, depending on the thickness of the cubed pork).
- 3. Prepare Gravy and serve over cubed pork.
- 4. SAWMILL GRAVY: Heat bacon grease in skillet (I use a cast iron skillet) and then add flour, sugar, salt and pepper, cooking until lightly browned.
- 5. Add milk and bring to a boil, stirring constantly using metal spatula or whisk (I prefer spatula). Reduce heat and continue stirring until desired consistancy.
- 6. If gravy seems too thick, you may add a little more milk until the consistancy is right. If gravy seems too thin, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of flour in a glass measuring cup and whisk in just enough milk to make a pourable paste. Add mixture to gravy and return to heat, stirring until thickened.
