What do you use to season? I'd use s&p, garlic for sure and red meat
calls for thyme. It's a sauce, so I'd also add a few drops of L&P
Worcestershire sauce. It needs to be L&P, not French's (which is
awful).

If you know how to make biscuits and gravy, you know how to make the
sauce part, but you might consider half milk and half beef
broth/stock. If you don't use broth, you can eliminate the salt and
use a bullion cube for a meatier flavor.
