  1. Cook the Sausage & Make the Gravy
  2. In a cast-iron skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Remove sausage, leaving ¼ cup drippings in the pan (add butter if needed).

  7. Lightly toast English muffins while the gravy simmers.
  8. Assemble & Broil

  11. Sawmill gravy
  12. Scrambled eggs
  13. Cooked sausage
  14. A slice of cheddar cheese
  15. Broil for 2–3 minutes until cheese is bubbly and melted.
