The Best Gravy – (For Beef or Oven-cooked Meals Like Brisket.)

published by PenMaster on Jan 21, 2010

An easy way to make great gravy.

This is a short recipe for some easy home-made Gravy; this only works on oven-cooked meals who have their own broth.

Once your beef, brisket, roast or other meal is done, take it out of the oven and remove any covering it has, then pour the broth into a small pot. The broth will already be hot so you only need to turn your stove probably to Med Hi.

Next, take some good flour out. I use natural flour, but it might work with any flour. (Not sure.)

Put a small amount of flour in it. Just a few pinches at first. Stir continuously; do not stop stirring.

As you stir after adding the flour, you’ll see that the broth will become thicker and less soupy. Add small amounts of flour until you decide which thickness is best for you.

Once you have found a good thickness, continue to cook and stir on Med-Hi for a few more seconds, remember to stir VERY WELL, otherwise you’ll have clumps of flour in your Gravy. (Doesn’t taste good.)

Finally, turn the stove off and remove pot from heat; and voila! Great gravy.

Pretty simple, huh? Note though, this requires constant attention for 5-10 minutes, depending on the amount of flour and the heat you put it on. Do not cook this if you’re already cooking other things, as it may not come out right if you’re not stirring continuously.
