👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Boil the Potatoes: Place your peeled and cubed potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15–20 minutes until fork-tender. 🥔🔥
  2. Brown the Beef: While the potatoes cook, brown the ground beef and diced onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain any excess grease. 🥩🧅🍳
  3. Make it Savory: Sprinkle the flour over the beef and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Add your garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. 🥣🌪️✨
  4. Simmer: Let the gravy simmer for 5–10 minutes until it’s thick, rich, and bubbling as seen in the photo! ⏲️🤤
  5. Mash it Up: Drain the potatoes. Add the 4 tbsp butter and ½ cup milk. Mash until perfectly smooth and creamy. 🥔🧈🥛🌪️
  6. Plate it Up: Create a well in a big scoop of mashed potatoes and pour that glorious beef and gravy right over the top! 🥄🌊👑
  7. Final Touch: Garnish with fresh parsley and a little extra cracked black pepper. 🌿✨😋
