Print This Recipe



This recipe makes a very basic and simple brown gravy to use with roasts, and other beef dishes.

INGREDIENTS

1 (14 to 16-ounce) can Beef Stock, about 2 cups, or home made
1 to 2 tablespoons corn starch
Meat drippings, if available
Salt and pepper, to taste

Heat about 1 cup of stock over medium heat, add drippings if availble.

Combine cornstarch with remaining stock. Slowly stir cornstarch-stock mixture into heated stock/dripping mixture. (Adjust amount of cornstarch depending on the amount of drippings being used, add a little more for a thicker gravy). Cornstarch will come to it's full thickness when mixture comes to a full boil.

If you like a thicker gravy, simply mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a few tablespoons of water and add to the gravy mixture, stir well, allow to come to a boil and remove from heat.

Serve with your favorite Beef dish, Mashed Potatoes, etc.
