Step 4 — Add the Chipped Beef

Now fold the chopped chipped beef into the creamy sauce.

• Stir well so every piece is coated.
• Let it simmer gently for 2–3 minutes, allowing the beef to warm and release flavor into the sauce.

Taste and decide if additional pepper is needed. Salt is usually unnecessary, thanks to the beef.

Step 5 — Toast the Bread

Creamed chipped beef deserves a sturdy, crisp base.

• Toast your bread until deeply golden.
• Some like lightly buttering the toast for extra richness.

Good options:
White toast, sourdough, Texas toast, English muffins, or even biscuits.

Step 6 — Assemble and Serve

1. Place 1–2 slices of toast on each plate.
2. Generously ladle the hot creamed chipped beef over the top.
3. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley or extra pepper.

Enjoy immediately for best flavor and texture.
