In your large pot over medium heat, melt salted butter. Add diced onion and minced garlic; sauté until soft (about 3 minutes). Add ground beef; cook until browned (about 5–7 minutes). Drain excess fat if necessary.
Sprinkle flour over cooked beef mixture; stir well. Gradually add chicken broth while stirring constantly. Bring mixture to simmer.
