In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in the water and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt butter Add flour and cook, stirring regularly for about 5 minutes until it turns golden brown.
Add beef and chicken broth and bring to a boil, making sure to stir with a whisk. Stir in half the cornstarch mix and simmer for 1 minutes. Add more, in increments, so it’s your desired thickness. Season with pepper and add additional salt if necessary.
Directions for Fries:
Cut potatoes in ½ inch thick sticks. Place in a large bowl and cover fully with cold water. Let stand for 1 or more hours. When ready to cook, heat oil to 300F.
Remove potatoes from water and put on a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Add fries to 300F oil and cook for 5-8 minutes, just when the potatoes are starting to cook but not brown. Remove potatoes from oil and put on a wire rack. Increase oil temp to 375F.
Return potatoes to 375F oil and cook until potatoes are golden brown. Remove to paper towel.
Add fries to a large bowl and lightly salt while warm. Add a ladle of hot gravy to the bowl and toss fries in gravy. Add more as needed. Add cheese curds and toads in gravy.
