For an even richer flavor, consider using a blend of bacon drippings and butter. If your gravy becomes too thick, whisk in a little extra milk to thin it out. A pinch of nutmeg can add a warm, subtle complexity to the gravy. Experiment with different types of pepper, such as white pepper or a blend of peppercorns, for a unique twist.
