Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast — The Old-School Comfort Dish That Feels Like a Hug from Grandma

Ingredients You’ll Need

(Serves 4)

8 oz dried chipped beef (like Hormel or Buddig)

4 tbsp (½ stick) unsalted butter

¼ cup all-purpose flour

2 cups whole milk, warmed slightly

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste (go light on salt—beef is already salty!)

8 slices bread, toasted (white, sourdough, or Texas toast work well)

💡 Pro Tip: Look for thin-sliced dried beef in the refrigerated meat section—not beef jerky!
