Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast – Also known fondly as “Shit on a Shingle,”
Dried beef slices
Unsalted butter – the beef slices have plenty of salt!
All-purpose flour – you can also use GF flour mix
Milk – we recommend whole milk
Spices – onion powder, dried thyme, and cayenne pepper
Texas toast – brioche, or thick-cut white bread
First, cut the Buddig Beef into strips, and then into short segments.
Next, place a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted, quickly whisk in the flour to create a roux. Continue whisking as you cook the roux for just a few minutes, until light-gold in color.
Then whisk in the milk. Keep whisking and add the onion powder, thyme, and cayenne. Simmer the gravy to thicken for another couple of minutes. Add in the dried beef, and cook another minute or two to warm the beef and thicken the gravy. If the gravy thickens too much, just add another splash of milk to reach the consistency you like.
