I don't typically keep wine in the house so I ended up using beer instead. I soaked a chuck roast for a couple of hours in the beer ahead of time and ommitted adding it to the sauce at the end. While I am sure it gave it a different flavor, it was DELICIOUS! My kids ate it up and asked me to make it one of our regular meals! I didn't have egg noodles in the house one time making this so I made homemade dumplings instead. I also used flour instead of corn starch but used a bit less than what was asked for. If I thought it was getting too thick I just added a little more beef broth to thin it out. But I do like a thicker gravy. This is very good! Thank you for the recipe!! 8D

So yummy!! A bit time consuming but worth the effort. This was my first time making any cream type of soup and I was very pleased with the result. I will say it needed a bit more "flavor" more salt or something that seemed to be missing. Regardless of that I will be making this again and again. My kids Loved it! So much better than the store bought soups!! Thank you for the recipe!

I wanted something with ingredients I could pronounce and that would taste really good. I am not really a ranch dressing person but my kids are, so I thought I would try this...I LOVE it!! So did the kids and hubby!! Incredibly easy to make too, with ingredients I already had around the house. The only thing I did differently was to use fresh chives because I didn't have dried ones. So good, I will make this over and over!!! Thanks for the recipe! 8D
