Are you tired of serving dry roast meat? Do you want to elevate your meals by adding a delicious and flavorful gravy? Look no further! In this post, we will guide you on how to prepare the perfect gravy for roast meat that will impress your guests and leave them asking for more. Let’s get started!

What You Will Need

  • 1 cup of pan drippings from roast meat
  • 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups of chicken or beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Step 1: Collect the Pan Drippings

Once your roast meat is cooked, carefully remove it from the roasting pan and set it aside to rest. Place the roasting pan on the stovetop over medium heat. Use a spoon to scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. These browned bits are packed full of flavor and will enhance your gravy.

Step 2: Make a Roux

In a separate small bowl, combine the flour with a few tablespoons of cold water, whisking until smooth. This will create a slurry. Pour the slurry into the pan drippings and whisk continuously until a thick paste, known as a roux, forms. Cook the roux for about a minute to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 3: Add the Broth

Slowly pour the chicken or beef broth into the pan while continuing to whisk. This will help to prevent lumps from forming. Keep whisking until the gravy reaches your desired consistency. If it gets too thick, you can add more broth. Remember, you can always add more liquid, but it’s difficult to thicken an overly thin gravy.

Step 4: Season to Perfection

Now it’s time to add the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper to taste. Be cautious with the salt as the pan drippings may already contain some saltiness. Stir well and taste test. Adjust the seasoning if necessary, but be mindful not to overpower the natural flavors of the meat.

Step 5: Strain and Serve

If desired, strain the gravy to remove any lumps or leftover bits. Use a fine-mesh sieve or a cheesecloth-lined strainer to achieve a smooth and velvety texture. Pour the liquid gold into a gravy boat or a serving dish, ready to be drizzled over your delicious roast meat.

Congratulations! You have successfully prepared the perfect gravy for your roast meat. Serve it alongside your flavorful meat for the ultimate dining experience. Enjoy!
