Sausage in Biscuit

1 cup flour
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
I teaspoon baking powder
6 elk sausages
2 tablespoons dripping or bacon fat

Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl, make
a hollow in the center, break the egg into this and add half the
milk.  Mix and beat to a smooth batter, adding the remaining milk
gradually.

Parboil the elk sausages, skin and split them, then place them in
a roasting pan in which the drippings have been melted and
heated.  Pour the batter over them and bake in a moderate oven-
350 to 375 degrees F. for about half an hour.  Cut into squared
for serving and serve plain or with brown gravy or tomato sauce.
