1 pkg brown gravy mix

When finished cooking, remove roast and thicken sauce in saucepan with flour and cornstarch to thicken for gravy.

*To thicken gravy: Mix 1 tbsp corn starch with 1 tbsp water (for each cup of liquid you want to thicken) in a small glass, until it is completely dissolved. Add this into the liquid (you should have it on the stove-top) and whisk while bringing it to a boil.
