Comfort & Convenience, No Roux Required

Gravy is a staple for every part of the day—breakfast, lunch, or dinner—but your back-of-house staff shouldn’t have to rely solely on clumpy, powdered roux to make it.

Not only can these mixes fall short on flavor, they often lead to inconsistent results. That’s where Butterball® Farms comes in. We help you serve gravy that delights your customers time and time again, with a fraction of the prep work and a flavor so good, they’ll want to eat it by itself.
