  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   5       c            Water
   7       c            Milk
   1       lb           Pork sausage
   1 1/2   c            Flour
   2       tb           Salt
   2       tb           Pepper

  Mix water and milk in a stock pot. Place on the stove
  to heat. Do not boil! The sausage needs to be chopped.
  If you use links, put them through a food chopper. If
  you use bulk, then chop and stir while cooking. The
  sausage should be fried in a cast iron skillet. When
  it is done, carefully strain and save the grease. Put
  the cooked sausage in the milk and water mixture. Put
  the grease back in the skillet over moderate heat.
  Stir in the flour, salt and pepper to make your roux.
  Cook this mixture until it will cling to the spoon and
  come off the skillet cleanly. When the milk and water
  mixture is just under boiling, stir in the roux
  quickly while turning off the heat to thicken the
  gravy. Serve over biscuits or toast.
