Grandma's Southern Tomato Gravy

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 14.5 oz cans diced tomatoes
• 4 tbsp flour
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
• 2-3 tbsp bacon grease

  or other meat drippings, such as sausage or ham

Instructions

• 1 Pour the tomatoes into a medium sized skillet set over medium heat.
• 2 Let the tomatoes cook until hot, stirring occasionally.
• 3 Add the flour to the broth, and whisk vigorously until the two are completely
  incorporated and the mixture's smooth.
• 4 Pour in the flour/broth mixture, whisking constantly until it's incorporated
  completely. Don't skip this step! You don't want any lumps or odd bits of mini
  dumplings in your tomato gravy.
• 5 Stir in the bacon grease, and bring the tomato gravy to a full boil. Once it's
  reached a boil, immediately reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for 10
  minutes- or until the gravy's thickened.
• 6 Season with the salt and pepper, taste and adjust if needed.
• 7 Serve the gravy hot, ladled over fresh biscuits.
