How do you make your gravy on pot roast?

I usually just do an jus style, but I'm looking for something closer to gravy. Just add cream?

Gator, I usually use a can of Cambells Cream of Mushroom soup and it works for me. Another more traditional gravy is to mix flour with the drippings till you get the right thickness.
How bout some more beans Mr.Taggert? I'd say you've had enough!

I'm probably to late, I mix a little corn starch with evaporated a little Evaporated milk, deglaze the pan with beer or wine add the pan juices back with a tbl of Butter when it comes to a simmer stir in in the Milk/Corn starch let it simmer for a min or two until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon so you can draw a line in it with your finger.

I actually made a roast last night. I just take out about 2 cups of the beef broth that I cooked it in, and whisk in about 3 tablespoons of cornstarch. It's really that simple. Whisk it over heat till it thickens.

I LOVE this stuff !!
I get the mix at Sams (cheapest place I've found it)

I pour the drippings through the fat separator
then pour the juices back into a pan
then I estimate how much of the mix and water I need to add to the juices to get the amount and thickness I want

Image

I save all the separated juices from all my cooks
even if I don't make gravy for that meal
