• TIP: If you feel the gravy is not thick enough after the roast has finished cooking, add a flour thickener. Transfer the meat to a deep platter and keep warm. Pour the sauce into a saucepan and heat slowly. Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, place 2 Tbs. all purpose flour. Add the sauce, a tablespoonful at a time, stirring after each addition, until mixture is smooth. When you have about 1/2 cup, add the mixture to the saucepan and bring to a boil over medium low heat. Stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Pour over roast and serve.
