Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Buttermilk Gravy.
Step 1
To start, grab a skillet and warm up the delicious bacon drippings over medium heat until they melt into a lovely pool of flavor.
Step 2
Next, sprinkle in the flour and whisk it together with the drippings until everything is well blended and bubbly, which should take about a minute.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to add the buttermilk! Pour it in gradually while whisking continuously to create a smooth mixture.
Step 4
Bring this delightful concoction to a gentle boil, which will take around three minutes.
Step 5
Once it’s bubbling away, lower the heat and let it simmer, whisking constantly until the gravy thickens and becomes irresistibly smooth—this should take about two to three minutes.
Step 6
To elevate the flavor, stir in the chicken bouillon, salt, and pepper.
Step 7
If you find the gravy a bit too thick for your taste, don’t hesitate to whisk in a splash more buttermilk until it reaches your perfect consistency.
Step 8
Finally, serve this rich and creamy gravy immediately over your favorite dishes, and watch everyone savor every last drop! Enjoy the warmth and comfort this homemade gravy brings to your table.
