*please note they also have a recipe for homemade biscuits, I did not make the recipe for biscuits, I did store bought instead.

Sausage Gravy:
1 tablespoon butter
1 log package sausage (recommended: Jimmy Dean)
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup maple syrup
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
I also added about 1 heaping tablespoon of flour to thicken it up.

For the sausage gravy:
Directions
In a large heavy bottom pot melt the tablespoon of butter and brown the sausage for about 5 minutes. Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Once at a simmer, add the hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and maple syrup. Simmer the gravy for 15 minutes and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Assemble by placing a biscuit on a plate and covering it with about 1/2 a cup of the sausage gravy.
