What Is Dried Beef?

 Knauss Dried Beef is a slowly cured, lean beef that is trimmed of most fat to attain ultimate leanness. Its mildly salty yet beefy and smoky flavor profile lent itself well to many recipe applications over the last 100-plus years...but undoubtedly, the most famous recipe with Knauss Dried Beef is just a little milk, flour, and butter to create the classic "Creamed Chipped Beef" recipe, which first appeared in the manual for Army Cooks in 1910.
