Country Style Biscuits and Sausage Gravy (from scratch!) making process:

- Mix flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar..
- Cut in chilled butter using two forks, or massage in with hands, until it forms pea-size lumps..
- It will look something like this..
- Slowly add the buttermilk and mix roughly with a fork. Be careful not to knead it..

- Heat a frying pan on medium and fry the sausage until browned. Crumble it up into chunks as you're frying..
- Remove browned sausage, leaving the fat in the pan. Add 1 Tablespoon flour to the pan and 1 Tablespoon butter if there isn't much oil from the sausage..
