1. Rinse the okra under cold water then trim the stem of the pod but do not cut into the pod itself.
2. Add the trimmed okra pods to a microwave-safe bowl and pour in 1 cup of water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place into the microwave.
3. Cook the okra for 3-4 minutes on high power. Transfer the bowl from the microwave and carefully remove a corner of the plastic wrap to allow the steam to escape. When cool enough to handle cut each pod into 1/4-inch slices. Reserve.
4. Add the olive oil and the bacon drippings (or butter) to a large heavy-bottomed pot set over medium-high heat. Add the flour and stir continually until the mixture turns golden brown. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook and stir frequently until the roux browns to the color desired, about 40 to 60-minutes.
