Ingredients

1 pound ground beef lean
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon beef bouillon Better Than Bouillon is my favorite
2 tablespoons steak sauce I like A-1
2 cups milk
Salt and pepper to taste
Parsley for garnish optional
mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, or toast for serving

Instructions

In a large skillet or pan, brown the ground beef over medium high heat, Be sure to break up all the pieces so they are small.
Stir in the flour, then add onion powder, garlic powder, beef bouillon, and steak sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw flour flavor.
Slowly add the milk, stirring continuously. Cook on medium heat until the gravy thickens.
Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve over potatoes, rice or toast

Notes

Cooking shortcuts - Use leftover hamburger steaks and skip the browning step.

Easy gravy - Substitute milk for broth (makes it more brown), use beef stock or bouillon cubes, and adjust salt as needed.

Perfect texture - Chop beef into very small pieces for best results. Add cornstarch slurry if too thin, or stretch with cream of mushroom soup or heavy cream for an extra rich gravy.

Boost flavor - Add a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce while cooking the beef for extra flavor.
