- 1 (16 oz) package thick cut bacon diced
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 3 cups half-and-half
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt plus more to taste (I used 1 teaspoon)
Place diced bacon into a large sauté pan, then turn the stove to medium/medium-high heat.
Cook until crispy, then remove and set aside onto a paper towel lined plate.
Remove grease, but reserve 1/4 cup.
Carefully pour reserved bacon grease back into the hot sauté pan.
Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking continuously, for 1 minute.
Slowly whisk in the half-and-half, then whisk in garlic powder, pepper, and salt.
Bring to a simmer, then whisk until gravy has thickened to your liking, about 2-5 minutes.
Stir in the crispy bacon, then taste and re-season if necessary.
Serve with your favorite biscuits and enjoy!
