So the traditional recipe is creamed hamburg and drop biscuits. Its basically beef gravy and biscuits. I made this dish for the first time completely wasted and still made it out right. So here it goes:
Creamed hamburg:
1 onion
6 Tbsp Flour
2 Dashes Worcestershire
4 knorr beef boullion cubes in 1/2 cup hot water
1 1/2 cup of milk
1.25-2 lbs ground beef
Chop onion and fry until soft then set aside. Brown beef and add onion. add flour, and bullion. Add milk and simmer until thick. You can add some salt and pepper to taste, i used garlic pepper and sea salt. turned out rather well.
Biscuits:
2 C flour
1 T sugar
1/2 t salt
1/2 cup Crisco or butter
4 t baking powder
2/3 c milk
1/2 t cream of tartar
Mix them by hand in a large bowl, dollop onto a cooking pan and throw it into a 425 degree oven until golden brownish. you are good to go.
To serve crumble up 2-3 biscuits into a bowl and add the gravy beef to taste. This should serve 3-5 people. In the beef mix you can add extra milk and flour til you get the desired consistency. The concoction will taste a bit overpowering but mixes well with the biscuits. For a little kick add some hot sauce and cheddar when you serve and MM MMMM is it tasty.
Cost analysis:
2 lbs of beef at a local king sooper comes out to $6, assorted ingredients should total less than $.50 per serving making your cost per serving $2.00 or less per serving and youll have leftovers. Its rather delicous
happy cooking
