In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted, whisk in the flour. Stir constantly to create a smooth roux. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the roux turns golden and no raw flour smell remains.
Slowly pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Keep stirring until the mixture begins to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine the flavors.
Let the gravy simmer for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, to reach your desired consistency.
Remove from heat and taste for seasoning, adjusting if necessary.
Serve warm over sliced meatloaf, mashed potatoes, or your favorite sides.
