This silky beef gravy comes together fast, built on rich butter or savory drippings and deeply flavorful beef broth simmered with onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper until steaming and fragrant. A simple cornstarch slurry, whisked in slowly, thickens everything to that perfect spoon-coating consistency without any flour needed. A finishing touch of fresh thyme adds an earthy, aromatic note before you season to taste and keep it warm for serving. It's smooth, glossy, and packed with savory depth — exactly what you want ladled over mashed potatoes, roast beef, or biscuits. Because it skips flour entirely in favor of cornstarch as the thickener, this gravy is a solid, reliable option for a wheat free table.

Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is steaming and small bubbles break at the surface, about 4–5 minutes.
