Gravy with meat is a savory sauce typically made by simmering meat drippings, broth, and seasonings, sometimes thickened with flour or cornstarch. Commonly found in European and American cuisines, it complements dishes such as mashed potatoes, roasted meats, and biscuits. Variations of meat gravies, like sausage gravy or beef-based brown gravy, are popular in comfort foods and holiday meals. Its protein content comes from the meat used, and the broth can provide collagen and micronutrients. However, many recipes can be high in sodium, saturated fat, and calories, depending on the ingredients. To make it healthier, consider using lean cuts of meat, low-sodium broth, and whole-grain thickeners. While it adds rich flavor and texture, gravy with meat is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
