How to Make Pastor Grant's Redneck Tomato Gravy

  1. Dice 4 ounces of salt pork or bacon and fry in a large skillet with 1 tablespoon of oil for about 5 minutes until crispy.
  2. Add 1 medium diced onion, 1 green bell pepper (diced), and 2 cloves minced garlic, frying until the meat is browned and vegetables are softened (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Remove the vegetables and meat from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Place a heaping tablespoon (about 2 tablespoons) of all-purpose flour into the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until lightly browned (about 1-2 minutes).
  5. Pour in 2 (28-ounce) cans of crushed tomatoes into the skillet, cooking and scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan for 5 minutes.
  6. Add the reserved meat and vegetables back into the skillet.
  7. Simmer for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  8. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little kick (optional).
