Time 25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup butter
¼ cup diced onion
¼ cup thinly sliced celery
1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 (32 ounce) carton College Inn® Chicken Broth, divided

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, celery and thyme until vegetables are very soft and golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in flour and cook until just beginning to brown, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes.
  • Gradually stir in 2 cups broth. Cook, stirring frequently with a whisk, until thickened and smooth, about 3 minutes; cool. Refrigerate gravy base and remaining 2 cups broth up to 2 days before serving.
  • When turkey is finished roasting, remove from pan to let rest. Skim fat from pan drippings. Add turkey pan drippings to refrigerated gravy base in a medium saucepan; heat over medium heat, stirring frequently. Add reserved broth 1/4 cup at a time until desired thickness. Simmer until heated through and serve.

This gravy was okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. It was a little too thick for my taste and it didn't have much flavor. I probably won't make this gravy again.

This gravy was a disappointment. It was bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly but it just didn't turn out right. I ended up throwing it out and making a different gravy.

I was skeptical about this recipe at first because I've never made gravy before. But I'm so glad I tried it! It was so easy to follow and the gravy turned out amazing. It was the perfect consistency and flavor. I will definitely be making this gravy

This is my new go-to gravy recipe. It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfect. I love that I can make it ahead of time and then just reheat it when I need it. It's a lifesaver on busy weeknights.

I made this gravy for my Thanksgiving dinner and it was a huge hit! Everyone raved about how delicious it was. It was the perfect addition to our turkey and mashed potatoes. I will definitely be making this gravy again for future holiday dinners.

This gravy was incredible! It was so easy to make and it tasted like I had been simmering it all day. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. I will definitely be making this again. My picky kids loved it too!
