In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Once the butter is fully melted, add the all-purpose flour to the saucepan and whisk continuously. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture turns a golden brown color. This is your roux.
Slowly add the chicken stock to the roux, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Once the chicken stock is fully incorporated, add the beef stock to the mixture and continue whisking.
Add the onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to the saucepan. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Allow the gravy to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Finally, stir in the soy sauce for an extra boost of umami flavor.
Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Remove from heat and serve hot over your favorite dishes.
