Notes
- You can cook the ground sausage ahead of time and store it in the fridge or freezer until you are ready to use it in your recipe.
- When making your buttermilk biscuits, don't forget to brush the tops of each biscuit with a little bit of buttermilk. This will help them turn a nice golden brown.
