Jeezus christ, I can make a good dark roux in 20 minutes with oil and flour in a cast iron skillet.

So you don’t stir it at all while it’s in the oven?




I reach in there and stir it around every 20-30 minutes. But it's not going to scorch or anything if you don't.

I've been having good success with bacon grease and some butter.

I think the best roux is oil and flour high heat stiring non stop. But I've had success with microwave and dry oven roux. Microwave is Quick and easy you just have to run it a few times. Oven is foolproof but slow.
