This Easy Beef Gravy Recipe is a quick and flavorful way to make classic brown gravy from scratch.

Ingredients

Scale

Gravy Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cooking sherry (optional)
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 4 cups beef stock
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat Pan: Set a large sauté pan over medium heat to prepare for the gravy base.
  2. Add Ingredients: Add the butter, cornstarch, Worcestershire sauce, optional cooking sherry, onion powder, garlic powder, and beef stock to the pan. Whisk continuously to combine the cornstarch evenly into the beef stock as the butter melts.
  3. Thicken Gravy: Continue whisking the mixture as it heats, allowing the gravy to thicken. This should take approximately 5 to 8 minutes. Once thickened to your desired consistency, taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, ensure the Worcestershire sauce and beef stock are gluten-free.
  • The cooking sherry adds depth but can be omitted if preferred or unavailable.
  • Whisk constantly to avoid lumps and achieve a smooth gravy.
  • If gravy becomes too thick, thin it with a little more beef stock.
  • This gravy pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, roast beef, or meatloaf.
