    Can substitute beef stock or pan drippings for chicken stock.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    My go to gravy. Also like the Make ahead gravy for Thanksgiving.

    So much butter! The onions practically deep fried in it. Next time I'd use 4-5 Tbsp. Decent flavor but it will never be as good as gravy with drippings.

    Don't need anywhere near the amount of butter the recipe calls for. Cut way back.
