CREAMED CHIPPED BEEF

1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
1 dash pepper
2 cups milk
2 1/2 ounces dried beef, sliced

In medium saucepan, melt butter. Blend in flour and pepper. Stir in milk. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly. Reduce heat. Tear beef into shreds; add to cream sauce and heat through. Serve over toast points or mashed potatoes.

Also, Stouffers makes a frozen one in the freezer isle of the grocery. Just heat and pour over toast.

Welcome to both of you, glad you found the thread.

Snippy’s recipe in 3746 will work, and it has been years since I made it.

Thank you Snippy for jumping in and posting a recipe for it, we need more people posting here.

Knowing how I cooked then and how I would today, I used the bacon drippings/LOL/grease as that is how I like my gravy.

I would also add a dash of garlic, and have been known to throw in some chopped onion, not a lot.

I always tended to make a lot of milk gravy and used it in place of the canned soups they use today, when I had a family and cooked all the time.

In a pinch, a can of Campbells Mushroom soup [cream of] works just fine for making it fast.
