Seasoning

Method

Meat Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the ground beef and ground sausage. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Break up the meat with a spatula while cooking.

  2. 2

    Drain Excess Fat

    Once the meat is cooked, drain any excess fat from the skillet. Leave the cooked meat in the skillet for the next steps.

Gravy Preparation

  1. 3

    Sauté Onions and Garlic

    In the same skillet with the meat, add the butter. Once melted, add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Make the Roux

    Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the onion and garlic mixture. Stir constantly for about 2 minutes until the flour is lightly browned.

  3. 5

    Add Beef Broth

    Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring continuously.

  4. 6

    Season the Gravy

    Add the salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Continue to simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the gravy thickens.

Serving

  1. 7

    Combine Meat with Gravy

    Once the gravy has thickened, add the cooked ground beef and sausage back into the skillet. Stir to combine and heat through for another 2-3 minutes.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve the combination beef and sausage hot, drizzled with extra gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side.
