How to Make Hamburger Cream Gravy

  1. Heat bacon drippings or oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add ground beef and onion. Cook and stir, breaking the meat into small crumbles, until the meat and onions are browned (about 7 minutes).
  3. Push the meat to the side of the pan and drain off all but 1 1/2 tablespoons of pan drippings.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in flour until smooth.
  5. Gradually whisk in milk until smooth and fully incorporated, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
  6. Return the meat to the center of the pan. Stir to coat with gravy.
  7. Simmer until the gravy has thickened (about 2-3 minutes). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve immediately over your choice of biscuits, toast, cornbread, or mashed potatoes.
