SKILLET CHEDDAR BISCUITS AND SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, stir together Bisquick™ mix and the 1/2 cup milk; stir until well mixed. Stir in cheese. Set aside.
• In 10-inch cast-iron or ovenproof skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add sausage; cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink.

• Drop biscuit dough in 8 large spoonfuls onto hot sausage gravy.
• Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.

SAUSAGE CORNBREAD

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook the sausage and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink and onion is tender; drain. In a bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt. Add the corn, milk, eggs and oil. Pour half into a greased 10-in. ovenproof iron skillet. Sprinkle with the sausage mixture and cheese. Spread remaining cornmeal mixture on top. Bake at 425° for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the cornbread comes out clean.

SOUTHERN PINTO BEANS AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, fry up sausage breaking it up in small chunks as it cooks.
• If needed, drain off excess oil off sausage, leaving 2 tablespoons in the pan with sausage.
• Add chopped onions and peppers, and sauté until soft and tender.
• Pour in undrained pinto beans and tomato sauce; simmer for 10 minutes.
• Serve with cornbread if desired.

CORNMEAL BISCUIT SAUSAGE DRESSING

Steps:

• For the cornmeal biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over low heat.
• Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, thyme, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Pour in 5 tablespoons butter and the buttermilk and stir until just combined. Pour the remaining tablespoon butter into the hot skillet. Turn off the heat and use a teaspoon scoop or a couple of spoons to form the dough into tiny drop biscuits into the skillet-they will be touching. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
• For the dressing: Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the biscuits to a plate. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove over medium-high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the skillet, then add the sausage and break it up with the back of a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving any remaining fat in the skillet. Add the remaining tablespoon butter and let melt, then add the onion and celery to the skillet and cook until both have softened and started to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Return the sausage to the skillet and stir in the salt and pepper. Pour about 1 cup chicken broth into the skillet and scrape up any browned bits at the bottom. Add the mini biscuits and the saltines. Pour the remaining 2 1/2 to 3 cups broth into the skillet a little at a time, stirring to coat and distribute everything evenly; it should be moist, but not wet. Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the top and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the top is golden brown and the liquid has evaporated, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot or at room temperature.

CORNBREAD SAUSAGE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
• Place sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix corn bread mix, cream style corn and water.
• Cover the bottom of the prepared baking dish with about 1/2 inch of the corn bread mixture. Layer mixture with sausage, followed by onion and jalapeno. Cover with cheese. Top with remaining corn bread mixture, using only as much as will fit in the baking dish.
• Cook 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
