Zubereitung von Bacon Gravy
- Preheat a large skillet (oven-safe preferred) over medium-high heat.
- Add bacon slices to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet; discard the rest.
- Sprinkle flour into the bacon grease and whisk constantly for about 1 minute until the mixture is smooth and lightly browned (a roux).
- Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, whisking frequently.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- While the gravy simmers, crumble the cooked bacon into small pieces.
- Stir in the crumbled bacon, salt, and pepper.
- Continue to simmer for a minute or two, stirring occasionally to incorporate flavors.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately over your favorite biscuits, mashed potatoes, or eggs.
