Made this for dinner 2night and the kids & I LOVED it, even my finicky 3 & 1/2 year old found no fault with it and my 18 month old son gobbled it up as did his father when he got home. Not one speck was left! Now I did tweek slightly, I cooked 1 Lb gr beef with 1 onion diced (though this was not mentioned in the directions I am sure that was what was intended since it is listed in the ingredients) and 3 cloves garlic crushed. I added lots of fresh ground pepper and kosher salt & slightly more flour and more milk in hopes this would be left overs for lunch, LOL- until my husband ate it ALL!!

I liked this recipe, but I doctored it a bit. I fried up the ground beef in a bit of the bacon grease I had left over from the morning's breakfast. I also finely chopped an onion, and threw that in along with about half a pound of sliced mushrooms. I drained the meat before I added the flour and seasoned it with a Montreal Steak seasoning blend that we had in the cupboard, along with a little salt. I served it over a rice that had been cooked in a beef broth, so it was pretty savory. I would make it again.

Absolutely love this. Learned how to make this in my home ec class in junior high school (grade 7, 8 or 9) in the Lehigh Valley area (Allentown) of Pennsylvania and it was called Saucy Hamburger Crumble. Lost recipe and haven't made it for a long time! Was absolutely thrilled to find this recipe. At 58 I now make it for me and my 18-yr old son and he loves it too. Thank you!

Makes a nice gravy - but agree with some previous reviews - needs some spice. I cooked onion and a little garlic with the ground beef and it still could have used more flavour. Worcestershire sauce or something like that perhaps? Still the gravy was a good consistency and very easy recipe and fast.

Consider this a base recipe...strangely addicting and ultimately comfort food lol. Very inexpensive to make (7$) and makes a full skillet to boot (I used just one pound of hamburger and had a full skillet of beef gravy). I put some over a leftover biscuit but it would be great on mashed potatoes as well. Like others, I amended the recipe a bit. I added more onion, a few slices of leek, 2 Tbs Worcestershire, 2 Tbs A1 Bold/Spicy sauce, and 2 Tbs of chopped garlic. If I could have gotten the darn jalapeno jar open, I would have plopped some of those in there too :)

I love hamburger gravy, but it is hard to make it have taste. You need to add salt and lots of it! Onions are a must for me, you can even add brown gravy for more flavor. Ive served mine over mashed potatoes but, Ive used white rice too. Delicious!

This was an okay recipe. Not something that I will make again. I did change somethings (added Worcestershire, onion soup mix, cut up onions cooked with the ground beef) suggested by other reviewers. It filled us up but had no WOW, like a plain bologna sandwich!
