The reviewer gave this recipe 5 stars. This recipe averages a 4.32 star rating.

I made the turkey stock myself out of the innards from the turkey and a couple turkey breast fillets I'd been hoarding in the freezer for just an occasion. I didn't add salt and I used celery powder instead of celery salt. (We're trying to watch our salt intake.) I also added a tablespoon of butter and sauteed half of a sweet onion when I got ready to pull the gravy together. Turned out great. And, for my husband who always raves about his dad's gravy... he said this was even better. And that's a heck of a compliment. This will be my new gravy recipe.

I used this recipe with the Giblet Gravy II recipe and it tasted great. I pureed the giblets so it would be chunky.

Yummy gravy! I used chicken broth because that's all I had, and I used more thickener (corn starch) per another reviewer's advice. I also had no celery salt so I just thinly diced some fresh celery and boiled it along with the gravy. I made turkey breast cutlets, brown rice, and boiled carrots and poured the gravy over everything. The family ate every bite (even the one who hates boiled carrots)!

Use 2 to 4 T Cornstarch disolved in cold water to make thicker. I liked it.

Simple, goodness on top of your potatoes! I used the stock and drippings in the bottom of my roasting pan from a 15lb turkey. I actually thickened it up using xanthum powder from the health food store; more fiber, no lumps and it works faster! I'll use this next year too.

Very good gravy. I was surprised since no pan drippings were used. I scaled this recipe way down to serve 4. I used fat free chix broth and cornstarch/water to thicken, added the salt,pepper,and poultry seasoning. I also added a few drops of gravy master for a richer color. Very silky tasty gravy without the fat. Tasted just like Turkey Day. I used this on top of Thanksgiving in a Pan from this site. Thanks!

Everyone loved this gravy - it was great! I did have to add extra flour to get it thick enough, but no big deal at all! Thanks!

I made this gravy for Thanksgiving. With a few additions it was a good time saving alternative ti gravy from giblets. I added more spices and quite a bit of dry white wine - delicious.

The flavors of the gravy were good. Be careful however, I used turkey stock with salt and then I added the additional salt the recipe called for. Way too much!!! I also had trouble since I felt like my gravy tasted a bit too much like flour...Perhaps it was just me....it was easy tough and good in a pinch...I will keep experimenting however!

This gravy was great. I suggest cutting the salt if you're using drippings from a brined turkey. Otherwise, it will be too salty.
