How to Make Gravy For Beef Pork Chicken Or Turkey
- **Make a slurry:** In a small bowl, whisk together cold water and flour until smooth. Set aside.
- **Prepare the pan drippings:** Remove roasted meat from the roasting pan. Place the pan on the stovetop over medium-low heat.
- **Deglaze the pan:** Add a small amount of water (about 1/4 cup) to the pan drippings, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon.
- **Add the slurry:** Slowly whisk in the flour slurry, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
- **Simmer and season:** Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring continuously. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
- **Season to perfection:** Stir in salt, pepper, and any additional spices or flavorings (such as thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, or even a dash of Worcestershire sauce). Add optional gravy master or meat base for richer flavor.
- **Adjust thickness:** If gravy is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly. If too thin, add 1 teaspoon of flour at a time until desired thickness is achieved.
- **Strain (optional):** For extra smooth gravy, strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps or debris.
- **Serve:** Pour gravy into a gravy boat and serve immediately. Enjoy!
