I actually salt and pepper the flour that's on the sausage...works for me.
I, too, always season the sauce/gravy roux (sp?)prior to adding milk -just a little for this gravy as the sausage is already highly seasoned (especially salt!).
I prefer the frozen biscuits because they're so easy to keep long term in the bag and you can take out 1 or 15 to cook - depending on your need! But the biggest reason is that they're every bit as good as the buttermilk Grands that we used to pay so dearly for (a bag of the frozen at WalMart/Sam's of 20 is generally cheaper than rhe 8 in a roll)...

No offense, but that's nonsense, just like any great stew or soup...if you don't season as you go, it ends up bland as heck, and if it's bland on the plate, you can add all of the seasoning you want, but it'll just be bland and overly seasoned at the same time.
I know that sounds weird, but it's the truth, to build the flavors, you HAVE to season as you go.

Cranky - I have to agree with you about seasoning as you go and not waiting until the end! I once forgot and did the seasoning at the end - everyone asked me if I used a different type of sausage! They were disappointed! It seems flavoring the flour infuses the entire gravy so much more!

Sorry, I wasn't being clear. I'm not saying to season when it's on the plate. I'm suggesting seasoning at the tail end of the cooking. Perhaps a better description would be to season gently in the beginnning and do final seasoning to taste at the end of the cook time.

Even an easier method I use nearly every weekend.
1/2 pound Jimmy Dean sausage (I prefer the hot also)
2 packages of Pioneer Brand Country Gravy Mix.
Brown sausage and drain. Pour water in sausage according to directions on Gravy Mix. Add water and gravy mixture per instructions. I bake the frozen "Grands" biscuits.
This makes about enough for 8-10 biscuits. I season with very little salt and pepper to taste after they are on the plate.
I have never found a better tasting recipe than this and is really quick.

Frozen biscuits and a couple of cans of Libbys sausage gravey. I've eaten tons of biscuits and gravey (and have the butt to prove it) and eaten none finer then Libbys in the can.

HAHA I love it! Self admission! You've earned every ounce of it!
Anyway, I wish I could find decent bgravy mix around here. There is nothing that compares to Bob Evans, Pioneer or some of the brands out there. May have to resort to shipping em through the mail. Folks 'round here don't know what good biscut gravy is!

We make ours pretty much the same way except we use turkey breakfast sausage from Walmart. Less calories and less fat. Can't notice the taste difference. Oh and....Plenty of texas pete hot sauce on top.
