Fabulous gravy. I typically buy a can or powdered gravy when I am not roasting but that has all changed. I will be making my gravy from scratch from now on!

I can't believe how delicious this gravy is! I made it two nights in a row. I used 1 1/2 cups water, 3 beef bouillon cubes, 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup butter and pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to taste. Very good considering the ease of preparation. I like mine over rice with a beef patty. A few shakes of Worchestershire sauce in the gravy adds a nice richness as well.

Really easy and good! I made this vegetarian by using no-chicken boullion. I did as other people did- sauteed the onion, added the flour and sauteed for a bit to create a sort-of roux, then added the boullion & water (that I had already heated and mixed). Came out beautifully!

Awesome... I did chop the onions as small as I could and sauted them in the butter then added the flour and then the boullion/water mix. Turned out better than my family's passed down recipe.

Amazingly simple - great little quickly recipe! I usually make a roux and do this in order, but you don't have to. Just throw it all in and use a whisk until its thick and smooth.

I used two boullion cubes to 1 1/2 c. water. it was too salty for my taste. But an easy recipe. Will alter for better taste next time.

I thought this was an easy and tasty recipe. I thought it was too salty, so next time I will reduce the beef bouillon to two tsp. and hope that does the trick. For you first time gravy makers: I've learned that you need to put the thickening agent (flour, corn starch, etc.) in the water first to completely dissolve it and then add the rest of the ingredients and put the heat on. This recipe says to do that but others I've tried didn't and I've made many lumpy gravies. If you feel you need to add more flour, dissolve it in a bowl with a little water and then add it to the hot gravy mixture. :)

Love this! So easy and delicious- I'll never buy another packet of gravy again! This recipe is perfect when you don't have pan drippings to work from. I make it as-is and have tried suggestions from other reviewers such as using Kitchen Bouquet for browning. Great either way. I've also used my immersion blender to make it nice and smooth, as the first time I made it I ended up with some onion chunks.

This was great for a quick last minute gravy. I didn't want to freak the kids out with chunks of onions so I used onion powder, but otherwise, everyone enjoyed it. I was making a very quick last minute meal and this was perfect, I'll definetly be using this one again.

Perfect for poutine! We loved this recipe. Browned the onions in butter added flour and made a roux. Mixed the bouillon and water together then added to the roux. Simmered for 10 minutes. MMM

I'm super picky about my gravy.. I loved my mashed potatoes! So I was excited to try this, and it turned out perfect!! I used all the ingredients too. I fried the onions first with some of the butter, then added the water, bouillon cubes and butter, etc and THEN I whisked in the flour. It was PERFECT!! I'm in love.. never need to make another kind of gravy again.

This is our favorite beef gravy. I use a can of beef broth plus 1/4 cup of water because I think it's more flavorful. And I use a tablespoon of onion powder instead of chopped onions, because I'm a lazy cook. Instead of making a rue on the stovetop I melt the butter in the microwave, then add the flour, cover it with a lid and shake it. Then I add that to the gravy (again I'm a lazy cook). I also like to add a few shakes of worcestershire sauce and an envelope of gravy mix.
