Sawmill gravy gets its name from the traditional practice of lumberjacks and sawmill workers who would make this simple white gravy using leftover ingredients like bacon drippings or sausage fat, flour, and milk. The gravy was hearty and filling, providing a quick meal during long work hours. It was often served over biscuits or bread, making it a popular comfort food in Southern cuisine. The name reflects its rustic origins and the resourcefulness of those who prepared it.
