Hamburger Gravy
Hamburger gravy is a rich, savory sauce made from ground beef cooked with onion and garlic, thickened with flour, and simmered in a combination of milk and beef broth. It’s flavored with Worcestershire sauce and seasoned simply with salt and pepper, creating a hearty gravy that pairs well with biscuits or mashed potatoes. The cooking process allows the beef fat to meld into the sauce, giving it a smooth, comforting texture and a balanced, meaty flavor.
