Preparing the Protein-Packed Filling
The star of our breakfast rolls is the protein-packed filling. It features perfectly cooked eggs and savory pork sausage patties. Let’s dive into the steps to ensure your eggs are cooked just right and the sausage patties are seasoned to perfection.
Perfectly Cooked Eggs
For the best breakfast rolls, we recommend using freshly scrambled eggs. Here’s how to get them just right:
- Crack 6 large eggs into a bowl and whisk them lightly with a fork until well combined.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter in the pan.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the heated skillet and let them sit for 30 seconds to a minute, until the edges start to set.
- Using a spatula, gently push the cooked egg from the edges towards the center, tilting the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
- Continue this process until the eggs are softly scrambled and no longer runny, about 2-3 minutes total.
- Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the scrambled eggs to a plate, being careful not to overcook them.
Savory Pork Sausage Patties
To complement the fluffy scrambled eggs, we’ll be making delicious pork sausage patties. Here’s how:
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 pound of ground pork, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of dried sage, and 1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.
- Mix the ingredients together using your hands until well combined.
- Divide the mixture into 8 equal-sized portions and shape them into 1/2-inch thick patties.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of oil.
- Cook the sausage patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they’re cooked through and lightly browned.
- Transfer the cooked sausage patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess grease.
With the perfectly cooked eggs and savory pork sausage patties, your breakfast rolls are well on their way to becoming the star of your morning fare.

A Rich and Creamy Accompaniment
The secret to great country-style gravy is in the flavors and texture. We start by browning the sausage for flavor. Then, we make a roux to thicken it to a smooth consistency.
We add milk and a bit of seasoning. This makes a sausage gravy that will wow your taste buds.
Here’s how to make the perfect country-style gravy:
- Cook the sausage in a large skillet until browned and crumbled.
- Keep 2 tablespoons of fat in the pan and discard the rest.
- Add 2 tablespoons of flour and whisk to make a roux. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Pour in 2 cups of milk slowly, whisking to avoid lumps. Simmer and thicken for 5-7 minutes.
- Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
- If it’s too thick, add a bit of milk to thin it out.
The country-style gravy is now a rich, creamy, and flavorful sauce. It elevates your egg and cheese rolls with sausage gravy. Serve it warm over biscuits for a delicious southern cuisine treat.
