Creamed Chipped Beef

Creamed Chipped Beef. Not the most attractive meal, but what it lacks in the looks department, it makes up for in the yummy, creamy, and delicious department.

Creamed Chipped Beef is actually food the very first food I learned to cook (or maybe it was boxed macaroni...) at probably around 8 years old. In any case, I loved Creamed Chipped Beef night because it meant I got to make it!  I would always ask my mom if we could make the "applesauce" recipe, and she would look at me like I was off my rocker (and now you are too, aren't you?).  When we added the flour to the butter, I always thought it looked like applesauce, and being 8 and all, I didn't realize it wasn't actually applesauce.  I assure you, I know better now.  Although, apples in a cheese sauce could be quite delicious...

I digress.  So what's so great about Creamed Chipped Beef? Well other than the fact that it's so easy an 8-year-old could make it, literally, it's also a super fast, warm, and cheesy comfort food. AND it's super cheap.  Toast, flour, butter, milk, and lunch meat.  Stuff you probably already have sitting in your kitchen right now.  So let's make it!

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 3½ cups milk
  • 6 ounces sliced chipped beef chopped
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 6-8 bread slices toasted

Instructions

  • In a large sauce pan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  • Add the flour to the melted butter. Stir to combine. Allow the mixture to warm over the heat for 1-2 minutes.
  • Start pouring in the milk, a little at a time, stirring after each addition to prevent lumps.
  • When all of the milk is added, continue stirring until the sauce thickens. You're looking for a thick gravy texture.

  • Serve warm over toast.

Notes

  • Cheese - add begore beef. Stir until melted
  • Meat - can also use deli meat such as ham or roast beef

    My father was the one in the family to make Chipped Beef Gravy. We used the wafer beef luncheon meats (Carl Budding in our section of the country) and he would add Hard Boiled Eggs to the gravy. Will have to try your recipe as I LOVE S.O.S as well, one of the comfort foods from my childhood. May substitute cream cheese for part or all of the shredded cheese. Prefer it served on toast sandwich bread. I will be 56 this year.
