    Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • The reason I heat it now is because I want it to temp when putting in biscuits
  • Open sausage roll and put all the sausage into a frying pan and begin to brown in the frying pan over medium heat. Breaking up the sausage as it browns. Do Not drain any grease in the pan.
  • Once the sausage is browned add 1/3 cup of flour to the sausage and mix it in thoroughly. Stir constantly
