HOMESTYLE S.O.S.

HOMESTYLE S.O.S. serves 4
1/2 pound ground chuck
1/2 pound ground pork
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons Wondra flour
1 teaspoon Worcesteshire sauce
1 teaspoon Lawry’s seasoned salt
2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups whole milk
Sliced white bread

  • Brown the ground chuck and pork in a skillet over medium heat. About half way through add the shallot and garlic.
  • Drain off excess fat.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, being careful not to burn it.
  • Slowly whisk in the flour to make a golden brown roux.
  • Add the Worcestshire sauce, seasoned salt and pepper.
  • Slowly whisk in the milk. Turn the heat to medium and bring to a SLOW boil. Let it boil for 2 to 3 minutes and then lower the heat, whisking periodically until the mixture gets thick.
  • Stir in the meat mixture and heat through.
  • Toast the white bread and put the slices on serving plates.
  • Ladle the SOS over the top of the toast.

NOTES: For a nice flavor change the beef and or pork can be changed out for your favorite sausage or even bacon.  I sometimes serve it over biscuits or english muffins also.  When using toast, I like to get the toast nice and brown so it is firm and crunchy.
