All right Southern ladies

Tell me the secret to sausage gravy. I had a friend in Jr High who was from Atlanta and her mom made the best biscuits and gravy. I am having a hankering for these and figure making it while Ed is gone is the best time, so as not to thwart his WW plans (let just ignore the fact that I shouldnt be eating this stuff either lol).

I googled and found all sorts of seasonings besides the basic roux + milk + browned sausage recipe. What do you do?
