Ingredients
  

  • 2 packages Buddig Original Deli Thin Beef (2 oz each) or substitute 2 jars dried beef (2.5 oz each) drained and rinsed, patted dry
  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 4 Tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • ½-1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

Prepare The Beef

  • If using Buddig Original Deli Thin Beef, remove it from the packaging and stack the slices. Use a sharp knife or kitchen shears to cut the beef into small squares, approximately ½ inch in size.

Brown The Beef

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cut beef to the skillet and fry, stirring occasionally, for 1-2 minutes until the beef is warmed and slightly browned.
    If the beef is very lean, you may need to add a teaspoon of butter or oil to prevent sticking.

Make The Roux

  • Add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, sprinkle the flour over the beef.
    Stir until the flour and butter combine into a paste that coats the beef.

Add The Milk

  • Slowly pour in the milk, about ½ cup at a time, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
    Continue stirring and scraping the bottom of the skillet until smooth.

Thicken The Gravy

  • Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently.
    Cook until the gravy thickens and coats the back of a spoon.

Season and Serve

  • Stir in black pepper and adjust seasoning if needed.
    Serve hot over biscuits or toast.

Notes

  • If using jarred dried bee, you can rinse it briefly to reduce saltiness.
  • Add additional milk if the gravy becomes too thick.
  • This recipe is best served fresh, but can be reheated with a splash of milk.
  • Nutrition values are for the gravy only - does not include the toast or biscuits.
