In a deep, heavy skillet, melt shortening over high heat to a depth of about 1 1/2 to 2 inches. Heat to 370°.
Discard all but 1 1/2 tablespoons of the fat from the skillet. With skillet over low heat, whisk in reserved 1 1/2 tablespoons flour mixture. Stir until smooth and bubbly, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Whisk in the milk and ground cayenne, if using, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 3 minutes, or until flour taste is gone. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the steak with the gravy.
