Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 tsp melted bacon grease
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
2 c milk
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Put your melted grease in a frying pan. Let it get pretty hot before you add 3 TBS flour. When I say 3 TBS flour, I don't mean heaping, or flat. Just a nice TBS of flour.
  • 2. Mix flour and grease until it bubbles - if you want brown gravy, let it get darker.
  • 3. Add milk, slowly, stirring constantly.
  • 4. Stir until it boils and until it's thick as you want it. If it's too thick, add more milk, slowly, stirring constantly!
  • 5. Your gravy will thicken somewhat after it's out of the pan. Good gravy takes practice, so don't give up after your first try, if it's not exactly like you want it. Keep trying!! :) This recipe will serve 4! For more gravy, increase accordingly!

Tips:

1. Use the Right Pan: Choose a heavy-bottomed pan for making the gravy. It will distribute heat evenly and prevent hot spots that can burn the flour or butter. 2. Whisk Constantly: Whisk the gravy constantly as soon as you add the flour to the melted butter. This will help prevent lumps and ensure a smooth gravy. 3. Add Liquid Gradually: Add the milk or broth to the gravy gradually, whisking continuously. This will help prevent the gravy from becoming too thin or too thick. 4. Season to Taste: Season the gravy with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to enhance the flavor. 5. Let the Gravy Simmer: Let the gravy simmer for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help develop the flavors and thicken the gravy.
