The only reason it has a 4 star rating is because the fat content!!!! Otherwise.. it is soooo good. My husband likes it with grits instead of rice. Don't change a thing. You don't need to.

This was awesome! I didn't have any evap. milk so I dissolved the beef bullion in 1 cup of regular milk. Used fresh garlic as the other's suggested and it was salty enough with the bacon. We had over rice but want to try over grits, a southern favorite. I also added cajun seasoning to add a kick to the gravy. Thanks!

This was a good recipe, probably not a family staple, but something new and interesting to eat. I didn't have beef bouillon, so I added a little chicken bouillon instead. I also doubled the amount of flour, water and evaporated milk. It was just right, any less would have been skimpy. We had rice and biscuits with it, as I didn't know which would be better. I think the biscuits were my favorite. My son loved it and wants it for breakfast tomorrow.

I really like the flavor of this gravy...I think next time I may use pork chops instead of shrimp, and have it over some biscuits. The gravy tastes geared more towards pork or chicken. Thanks for the recipe!

This was really, really good, especially on a cold day! I added the whole can of milk and some extra water to stretch the gravy a bit, and since I didn't have chives, I added a couple of shakes of Parisien Bonnes Herbes from Penzeys and a couple of shakes of Old Bay Seasoning, like I saw in a similar recipe. I didn't use garlic salt after reading some reviews, and used the powder instead with just a couple of pinches of Kosher salt. I served mine over Jasmine rice cooked in chicken broth in my rice cooker. I will definitely make this again!

This recipe was great. My daughter is Lactose intolerant so I couldn't use the evaporated milk, so we used Lactaid instead. All we had to do was omit the water and double the measurement for the evaporated milk. It worked great. Thanks for the wonderful dinner ideas.

Totally AWESOME...added the garlic and the parsley. Also wanted a bit more of the gravy so used the whole can of evaporated milk and a bit more flour. Put in the shredded carrots and peas and served over rice....next time I think I will add fresh mushrooms....Simply easy recipe on a busy day from work...the kids gobbled it right down & asked to make it again soon

I seasoned the shrimp with Lawry's garlic salt & parsley, first. Cooked fresh minced garlic with the onions. Used a few dashes of garlic powder with the gravy(which i doulbled= 3tbs of flour, 1cup water, 1 cup evap milk)and a dash or red crused pepper for some kick.

My Husband flipped over this recipe. I did use the entire can of evaporated milk, subbed granulated garlic for the garlic salt, used Better than Boullion instead of the cube, added cayenne pepper, left out the extra salt and served over rice. He ate it all... I had ice cream for dinner. Thanks, HardCore-Mama... hubby was in hog heaven!

Excellent quick recipe for a busy night! I used beef broth and garlic powder instead to make more of a sauce for the grits I paired it with and added a couple of dashes of creole seosoning and tabasco to boost the spice. Thx!

This is a very easy recipe. It is quick to make. However, it is very salty! The tablespoon of salt on top of the bouillon was too much to take. I threw it away after 2 bites. This would be a good recipe if only a teaspoon of salt. You can always add salt later if needed.

Delicious, versatile recips. I doubled the sauce and followed other suggestions by adding peas, shredded carrots, and crushed red pepper flakes. We have lots of fresh basil growing, so I chopped in 3 tablespoons' worth. Used a soy mixture (with ginger, lemon, and honey) in place of the salt (unfortunately making it a little grey-ish), turning this into something like an asian-influenced etoufee.

We served this over egg noodles. Nice and easy meal. Next time I might throw in some shredded carrots and peas to add some veggies to this meal.

A very simple recipe with lots of flavor. I too added garlic and used garlic powder instead of garlic salt that made the taste more intense. I will do this recipe again. Thanks for the good recipe.

WOW! Loved it. The family calls it Heart Attack shrimp because of cooking the onions/garlic in bacon grease but there were no left overs (lol)! I did add a lot of extra liquid, almost the whole can of milk plus some water. I wanted more of a gravy and thought it was to thick. I just kept adding as I cooked until it was the consistence I thought it should be. I also used fresh garlic, as others suggested, and added salt to taste. We had over rice and it was a big hit. Thanks for the recipe!
