Step 3: Add the Milk Slowly

  1. Pour in the milk gradually while whisking continuously.
  2. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens—this takes around 3–5 minutes.

You should have a velvety, smooth white sauce.

Tip: If it becomes too thick, simply add a splash of milk to loosen it.


Step 4: Add the Chipped Beef

  1. Stir in your chopped chipped beef.
  2. Season with black pepper and optional spices (paprika or cayenne).
  3. Add Worcestershire sauce if you like a deeper savory flavor.

Allow the mixture to simmer for another 2–3 minutes, giving the beef time to soften and meld with the creamy sauce.


Step 5: Prepare the Toast

While the sauce simmers:

  1. Toast slices of your favorite bread—white, wheat, sourdough, or Texas toast.
  2. Lightly butter the toast for extra richness.

Step 6: Serve It Hot

Spoon the creamy chipped beef generously over the toast.
You can serve:

  • open-faced
  • or as a stacked “toast tower” for extra heartiness

Finish with a sprinkle of parsley if desired, and enjoy immediately.


🧀 Tips for the Best Creamed Chipped Beef

  • Use whole milk for the creamiest texture.
  • Rinse the beef lightly but don’t over-rinse—some saltiness is essential.
  • Adjust consistency by adding more milk if the sauce thickens as it cools.
  • Serve immediately, as the sauce thickens quickly off heat.
