```
4 tbsp of butter
4 tbsp of flour
3 cups of milk
1 tablespoon of salt (15g)
1-2 teaspoons of pepper (5-10g)
```
1. Melt butter in a NON STICK saucepan over medium heat, you can let it brown if you like.
2. Add in the flour until its all disolved in the butter (important you add the flour before the milk, this prevents lumps)
3. Pour in the milk, and mix, keep on medium heat.
4. It will slowly start to thicken. (~10 minutes) Just keep stirring it occasionally to prevent anything from sticking to the bottom.
5. Add in the salt and pepper, and mix. Add more salt or pepper to taste.
# Notes
- I like to use frozen sausage patties on the side and add them to the gravy after it's done.
- You can cook ground pork and substitute in pork fat in place of butter (peronsally I don't notice a difference in flavor)
- If you make this same recipie using beef tallow in place of butter (beef fat left over from cooking ground beef) it taste amazing.... I like to make meatballs and rice. Then make gravy using the beef fat to pour over the rice.
