Creamed Ground Beef Sos

Recipe #28667 | 30 min | 10 min prep | add private note

I loved it when Mom used to make this for us! I have no idea if she originally made it for Dad, who had been in the army, or if she just liked it because it tasted good and was a budget stretcher. A traditional favorite, good ol' SOS. Note: the title of this recipe specifies that it is made ground beef, rather than chipped beef; "authentic" SOS is generally made with chipped beef, however many folks also refer to the ground beef version by the same name.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and onion.
  2. 2
    Stir in the flour, granulated bouillon, salt, pepper, and garlic and onion powders (and cayenne, if using).
  3. 3
    Saute all together until flour is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
  4. 4
    Gradually stir in the Worcestershire sauce and milk.
  5. 5
    Bring it all to a simmer, stirring, and cook until thickened, about 5 to 10 minutes.
  6. 6
    Serve over toast, biscuits, noodles, rice, or potatoes.
  7. 7
    Note: when I'm needing to avoid bread or noodles, I'll sometimes make a bunch of sauteed mushrooms and eat this over them, or sometimes with tofu. Delicious!

    We had ground beef & the other ingredients on hand, but not much cash, so I gave this a try. We enjoyed it very much as a hot & tasty meal on toast, with a side of broccoli. Only change was that I used minced garlic instead of the powder, but only because we love it. Will make this again as a great budget stretcher.

    Yum! I don't know if most consider this comfort food but it sure does bring back lots of warm and fuzzy memories. I made it for lunch today and throughly enjoyed not only the taste but the walk down memory lane that came with it. thanks!
