This gravy is a diner classic, often served over biscuits and sausage. But it's equally good on fried chicken, pork chops, mashed potatoes, country fried steak, and french fries for a hearty meal any time of day.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons bacon drippings
- 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.67 cups buttermilk , or more as needed
- 0.5 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
Instructions
-
1
Heat bacon drippings in a skillet over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until well combined and bubbly, about 1 minute. Pour in buttermilk gradually and bring to a boil, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.

Stir in chicken bouillon, salt, and pepper. If gravy is too thick, whisk in more buttermilk until you reach your desired consistency. Serve immediately.
