Categories     Dinner     Main Course     Sauce

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter ((optional, see notes above))
4 cups beef broth ((or beef drippings, or combination of both))
3 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1/3 cup water
beef bouillon (to taste)
ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a medium-sized sauce pan, combine butter, beef broth, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • Reduce heat and bring to a simmer.
  • In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine cornstarch and water, stirring until well combined.
  • While whisking the broth CONSTANTLY, slowly add cornstarch mixture to the saucepan. I like to pour in about a tablespoon at a time to gauge consistency. You may not need all of the cornstarch mixture, add only until desired consistency is reached.
  • Add beef bouillon (or Kosher salt-- I just like the depth of flavor the beef bouillon adds as compared to straight up salt) and pepper to taste.
  • Allow to simmer 2-3 minutes. Serve over potatoes, rice, poutine, or your favorite beef dishes.

EASY BEEF GRAVY



Easy Beef Gravy image

Easy beef gravy. This recipe works with beef that doesn't have too much juice and/or when boiling potatoes for mashing. Or with just a can of beef broth and water. I like this as it works well when making mashed potatoes and beef, when not too many drippings from the main beef course are available.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: For the best flavor, use a ground beef with a fat content of at least 20%. Ground chuck or ground sirloin are both good options.
  • Brown the ground beef properly: Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the ground beef. This will prevent it from steaming instead of browning. Cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until it is browned all the way through.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: The beef broth is the base of the gravy, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with real beef bones and vegetables.
  • Season the gravy to taste: Don't be afraid to season the gravy to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices until it reaches the desired flavor.
  • Thicken the gravy with a cornstarch slurry: If the gravy is too thin, you can thicken it with a cornstarch slurry. To make a cornstarch slurry, mix equal parts cornstarch and water until smooth. Then, slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering gravy until it reaches the desired consistency.

Conclusion:

Ground beef gravy is a versatile and delicious sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for topping mashed potatoes, noodles, or rice. It can also be used as a filling for tacos, burritos, or enchiladas.
