Ingredients
Scale
For the Sausage Gravy
- 1/2 cup diced smoked turkey sausage
- 1 oz clarified butter
- 1 oz all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ cups turkey stock
- 2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, minced
For the Biscuits
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 16 tbsp frozen butter
- 3/4 cup milk
Instructions
For the Sausage Gravy
- Place the diced turkey sausage in a skillet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and cook until crispy and hot. Remove and set aside.
- Wipe out the skillet and add the clarified butter and flour. Stir on low-medium heat until roux forms. It should look like wallpaper paste; you’ll know the roux is ready when it smells like Jiffy Pop popcorn. You’re looking for an almond color.
- Stir in the turkey stock with a whisk until fully incorporated. Whisk until the stock almost boils, and then reduce to a light simmer for 20 minutes. Make sure you’re whisking every couple of minutes.
- Take the turkey sausage and drain out any excess fat. Fold into the gravy. Add the minced fresh thyme and taste. Adjust with salt and pepper if necessary. Pro tip: When the turkey breast comes out of the sous vide bag add the liquid to a measuring cup.
- Split the fat out and add the turkey juice to your turkey stock. Remember, if you add 1 cup of stock, you must adjust the roux ratio.
For the Flaky Biscuits
- Combine all the dry ingredients together. Add the butter and mash with a pastry blender until fully incorporated.
- Add the milk and let sit for 20 minutes. If the biscuits are too tacky to work with, try adding a tablespoon of flour at a time.
- Then, divide the dough into six equal portions and bake at 425 degrees with a high fan.
