Creamed Chipped Beef

By AuntieGooper

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups milk or half and half (half cream/half milk)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1 (4.5-ounce) jar or package of dried beef, sliced or chopped

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet melt butter over medium heat. When it starts to sizzle add flour and whisk for a full minute. Continue to whisk as you pour in the milk and pepper. I do not add salt to mine as the beef tends to be plenty salty but you can add to taste if desired. Continue to stir until gravy has thickened. Remove from heat and stir in sliced dried beef. Serve immediately over toasted or untoasted bread, biscuits, waffles, English muffins or mashed potatoes! So good!
