Biscuits and Gravy

Biscuits:
2 cups flour
2 T. sugar
4 t. baking powder
1/2 t. cream of tartar
1/2 t. salt
1/2 cup butter
3 tbs buttermilk powder
2/3 cup water

Sausage Gravy:
1 roll of country sausage
1/4 cup flour
Oil or fat
1 can evaporated milk
Black pepper
water (or use another can of milk instead for a richer version)

Biscuits: You can mix dry ingredients ahead of time, adding wet stuff at the last minute to make a slightly sticky dough (mashed up together in a zip lock bag). Flour hands and drop small handful size balls into iron skillet. Cover with lid or foil and cook 10-15 minutes over hot coals.

Gravy: Brown sausage in a big iron skillet and scrape it off to one side. Tilt pan a bit so grease collects to one side. With a fork, stir in corn starch with enough additional oil to keep it creamy. Quickly add can milk and water (enough to make around 2 cups liquid). Add black pepper to taste and remix in sausage.
