Ingredients

How to make it

  • In bowl with water or under running water, rinse chipped beef to remove any excess salt during its curing process.
  • Slice or pull apart with hands the chipped beef.
  • Place chipped beef in skillet or pot, and add butter.
  • Let chipped beef sautée and get a little crispy on its edges.
  • Sprinkler flour over melted butter and chipped beef to make a roux
  • Add milk slowly and with spoon stir and cook until thickened.
  • If too thick for your liking, add a little more milk to thin it out.
  • Serve it up over warm toast, biscuits or even a poached egg on a buttered english muffin for that eggs benedict look.
  • Pour chipped beef with 'gravy' over eggs, biscuits, toast
  • Sprinkle top with fresh cracked pepper and optional cayenne
  • Serve at once, and watch the plates get licked up!

    Hmmm, you drew me back in with this one....what is it about childhood comfort foods when you are sad? I really need to make this soon. Just for the comfort factor alone.

    I had a friend when I was a kid whose mom used to make this all the time ... we'd have it over toast and I remember thinking it was wierd because she'd serve us milk with ice cubes in it... thanks for the memory, haven't had this stuff in YEARS! Might have to make it for old time's sake! :)
