Most of the time here is spent building flavors for the rich, creamy tomato based gravy studded with bacon and chives. This is an update to my original Shrimp & Grits post, with simplified recipe steps and a few ingredient changes. From Huntsville, Alabama, though I learned to make and fell in love with tomato gravy over grits, especially for dinner while living & going to school in Mobile; however, I chop & brown the pork sausage like ground beef then add tomatoes & sausage back once roux is ready. Add the sausage and enough water to cover the sausage at the half-way mark. Cook over medium heat until the water boils down and the sausage browns.
