Classic Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast 🍞🥩
“People hate on this because they’ve never had it made right. Period.”
A comforting old-fashioned dish that’s creamy, salty, and full of flavor — perfect over toast or biscuits with a side of crispy potatoes.
📝 Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups milk (whole milk preferred)
- 4 oz dried chipped beef, sliced into small pieces
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch of paprika (optional)
- 4 slices of toasted bread
👩🍳 Instructions
- In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
- Whisk in flour and cook for 1–2 minutes to form a light roux (don’t let it brown).
- Gradually whisk in milk until smooth and thickened.
- Add the chipped beef and stir until heated through and evenly coated in the creamy sauce.
- Season with black pepper and paprika to taste.
- Serve hot over buttered toast or biscuits with crispy potatoes or eggs on the side.
💡 Tip: Rinse the beef briefly in warm water before cooking if you prefer a less salty flavor.
