1Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot butter until softened, about 3 minutes. Crumble pork sausage and spicy pork sausage into onion; cook and stir until sausage is browned and cooked through and onions are tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
2Stir flour, salt, and black pepper into sausage mixture, adding additional butter if mixture is too dry, and cook until flour begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
3Pour milk into sausage mixture, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, adding more milk if mixture is too thick. Reduce heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors blend, about 20 minutes.

Footnotes

Cook's Notes:
Gravy can be held, covered, in a 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) oven for up to an hour before serving. You will have to add a little more milk because it will thicken while waiting to be served.
Gravy can also be made one day in advance and just reheated over low heat, stirring occasionally, or in a 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) oven for 20 to 30 minutes. If time allows, bring to room temperature before reheating.
Gravy freezes beautifully so make a full recipe while you're at it.
