Prime Rib Gravy
Prime Rib Gravy delivers deep, roasted beef flavor with layers of caramelized vegetables and mushrooms, finished with a touch of balsamic for balance. It’s lush and savory, perfect for draping over prime rib, mashed potatoes, or Yorkshire pudding during a special dinner or holiday roast. Expect a glossy, full-bodied sauce with a gentle kick from black pepper and cayenne.

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil. Spread the onions, carrots, and celery on the prepared baking sheet. Place the rib bones on top.

Roast until the bones are deep brown and the onions are black, about 1 hour. Use a spatula or tongs to transfer the bones and vegetables to a saucepan. Drain off any rendered fat from the baking sheet and reserve it for the gravy.

Add the broth and water to the saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the meat falls off the bone and is flavorless, about 4 hours. Skim any fat from the surface and reserve it.

Strain the broth and let it cool to room temperature.

Melt the butter in a pot over medium-high heat and sauté the mushrooms until well browned. Add 2 tablespoons rendered beef fat and stir until melted. Add the flour and cook for a few minutes.

Whisk in the broth and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the gravy has thickened to the desired consistency, 5 to 10 minutes more.
