Add gravy stock mixture 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly, until it resembles the consistency of a gravy, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with black pepper. Remove from heat. Serve warm with meal of choice.

Recipe Yield

Recipe Note

Red eye gravy gets its name from the appearance of the gravy's color. This gravy was originally made from the fat of ham steaks and then most often used as an added component to the ham dish. In this recipe, I will be using ham stock cubes as a substitute for fat drippings as an alternative.
