Ingredients That You’ll Need:

• Buddig beef – this beef is not dried, but since we’re not in Army times dry-preserved meat is unnecessary. Buddig has the perfect flavor and is not too salty.
• Milk – the creamy base to chipped beef.
• Butter – to make the roux which thickens the gravy.
• Flour – to thicken the gravy.
• Garlic powder – a quick dash of flavor.
• Black pepper – large cracks of fresh pepper complement the white gravy perfectly. Use cayenne if you want a little spice.

What’s The Best-dried Beef For Pioneer Woman Creamed Chipped Beef?

There are multiple dried beef brands available. Simply look in the refrigerated deli section or near the canned tuna and Vienna sausages in your supermarket. Here are a few well-known brands:

• Carl Buddig is a brand that’s popular and often used for chipped beef.
• Hormel also sells dried beef in jars and pouches.
• Armour has dried chipped beef in a jar.
• Carsons Dried Beef (which I used for this creamed chipped beef recipe) doesn’t appear to be formed and pressed, but rather is very thinly sliced dried beef. Fancy!

How To Make Pioneer Woman Creamed Chipped Beef?

1. Cut the meat into 1/2-inch strips, then 1-inch chunks; reserve.
2. In a large pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter.
3. Dust with flour and mix to form a paste. Continue stirring so the flour may cook for 1 to 2 minutes without becoming brown.
4. Slowly whisk in 2 cups of the milk, the garlic powder, and the pepper to eliminate any lumps.
5. Bring to a simmer, stirring regularly to prevent the bottom from burning. Approximately two to three minutes after it begins to bubble, it will thicken.
6. Stir in meat. Additional two minutes of simmering will integrate the meat flavor into the sauce.
7. Taste and, if necessary, add salt, or thin with extra milk.
8. Serve with bread or rice.

• Although fresh chipped beef from your deli is preferable, jars of chipped beef may be obtained with your canned meats.

• We use Half & Half instead of milk to make our gravy extra creamy. It just adds a richer taste without going overboard with heavy cream.
