Brown Gravy Recipes

EASY BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add flour; cook and stir until mixture is golden-brown and smells like cooked pie crust, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook for 30 seconds. Whisk in 1 cup of broth.
• Stir remaining broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard into the mixture in the saucepan. Bring to a simmer, whisking, and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

OLD FASHIONED BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Immediately after removing meat from a roasting pan or other pan, drain off the drippings, reserving 2 tablespoons. Sprinkle the flour over drippings; cook and stir over medium heat until brown. Gradually stir in milk, whisking with a fork to scrape up all of the meaty bits from the pan, then gradually whisk in the water. Increase the heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens, about 10 minutes. Taste, and season with salt and pepper.

SIMPLE BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Boil all ingredients in a pot together, except for thickener.
• Once the mixture boils, mix the cold water + cornstarch / oil + flour into a slurry / paste in a small bowl. You may need to add a tiny bit more water, but it should be the consistency of runny glue with cornstarch, and a paste with the flour.
• Slowly pour in thickener, while stirring. Continue boiling for 2-3 more minutes, still stirring. If you're using flour and oil, simmer at least 5 minutes to be sure the flour cooks. Remove from heat and let cool to thicken more.

BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Whisk together the beef stock, cornstarch, onion powder, soy sauce and bouillon cube in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking occasionally, and cook until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Turn off the heat and whisk in the heavy cream.

BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Put beef fat or oil in the bottom of a medium saucepan and add mushrooms, garlic, celery, carrot, onion, oregano, salt and pepper. Saute until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes or so, then add Beef Stock and bring to a boil.
• In a separate pan, heat clarified butter on low to medium heat, then add flour and cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, about 15 minutes.
• Once your gravy boils, add the hot roux and stir constantly with a whisk until it reaches a nice gravy consistency. (You may add more or less roux depending on how thick you like your gravy.) Taste and add bouillon as desired.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roast beef bones on a sheet pan for 1 hour.
• Place bones and any liquid fat and caramelized fat stuck to the sheet pan in a stockpot.
• Add approximately 1 1/2 gallons of water and the mushrooms, bouillon, dried and fresh oregano, salt, pepper, celery, garlic, bay leaf, carrot, onion and parsley and cook on low heat until it comes to a simmer. Simmer for 36 hours, adding more water when necessary. (Water will be evaporating constantly. Let stock reduce down to 1/2 gallon on the final day. If it yields a little less, it's ok to add water so that your exact yield is 1/2 gallon.)

BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Whisk in beef broth gradually. Cook and stir until no lumps remain, about 2 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook and whisk until gravy thickens, about 5 minutes more.
