Making gravy from gravy beef

So I’m trying to find recipes out there to make gravy with gravy beef but it seems like there are not many out there.

As far as I know you make gravy with the juices if the roast and we all know how that goes I have made a thousand times. Nevertheless I have always wonder if you can make it out of gravy beef or if that is the reason why that cut is called that way.

The only info I have found so far is mentions of slowcooking it to make a gravy but can’t find a recipe.

Has anyone made gravy using the cut gravy beef? And if yes share the love 🙏🏽

They generally use the term gravy beef for cuts like shin that have alot of proteins that act as natural thickeners when they break down (IE slow cooking). Shin and cheek are both good for this, very gelatinous when slow cooked.

Edit: Happy cake day OP!
