Maybe I'm really tired, but it seems like you left the flour out of your directions.

Fry 1/3lb sausage.
Remove cooked sausage. Keep rendered fat in pan.
Follow the directions above except with a dab more flour.
Crumble and add the sausage back into the pan. Dash of salt & pepper.
Spoon this awesome sausage gravy over some biscuits.

I love sausage and biscuits.

Let the flour get a little brown to add a nutty flavor.

Let it get black and you have a cajun roux.

I cannot tell you how many times we had that for breakfast when I was a kid - chipped beef and gravy over toast.
