directions
- Brown ground beef in a medium sized skillet. Drain off fat.
- In a medium sized sauce pan or pot melt the stick of butter. Add the flour and cook over medium/medium-low heat to make a thick paste or rue. Keep stirring till it is a smooth consistency. Takes just a few minutes or so.
- Add the milk and stir till thickens to the consistency of cooked pudding. When this mixture cools down it thickens even more, so don't overcook or it will be too thick!

One of my favorites from childhood. Daddy cooked this for us for breakfast. He didn't use any butter in his. He didn't measure, just went by eyesight, but I don't think he used as much flour. Still drained the beef, so not so much fat. Added flour to cooked, drained beef (I prefer ground round or ground chuck), stirred it well and then added milk and cooked until thickened. I like a lot of black pepper on mine. I was just thinking about making some this morning. Seeing this posted has really increased my craving. LOVE IT!!! Read in Trisha Yearwood's cookbook that she has this for breakfast every year on her birthday!

<p>Greatest of all, I am a Mom! The true miracle in my life so far is my beautiful daughter, Emily Rose. She is the joy of my life. My husband and I were blessed after nine years of marriage to finally be able to have her. I am also an artist. I love to paint with acrylics and I also use colored pencils. Perfectionist is my middle name. I am passionate about cooking. I love to cook for my daughter (who at almost three years old is not the easiest to please at the moment) and my husband, Tim. I have been more excited about cooking since discovering Recipezaar. It makes cooking and shopping for the ingredients easier. I just started adding some of my favorite recipes to the site and can't wait to see if anyone tries them. Keeping my fingers crossed that I get "good" reviews. <br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" /> <br /><br /><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" /></p>
