Really good! I made a few alterations. first, I used onion and garlic in browning the meat. worchesteshire sauce as others added too. the ratio of fat to flour in the roux didnt' work for me. I had globs of flour, not a smooth paste. tossed that and made it one to one ratio. that worked great. I used about 3/4 of the can of evap milk to the 1 cup beef broth, added some dill to the whole thing, and served over pasta. the kiddos gobbled it up! the hub raved.

This is the easiest recipe for SOS I have found. I added worcestershire sauce, onion and garlic to give it a better flavor. Very good!!!!

Our family enjoyed this dish. It is good with the worchester sauce, onions, and garlic.

I have never eaten SOS, so I have nothing to compare it to, but this tasted very good. I will double the cream sauce next time. I served it over biscuits made with the remaining evaporated milk. Simple and delicious.

Wasn't overly impressed. Basic recipe was kinda bland. Added worchestershire sauce didn't help that much. Wasn't bad, but not what I was looking for. Sorry.

The basic is great. However, substituting chipped beef, adding two TBS of onion and one TBS of red bell pepper takes it to the next level.

Just thought I'd let everyone know, SOS stands for SH*T ON A SHINGLE. My dad was a Marine and we ate this a lot growing up, the name doesn't do it justice cause it's G-R-E-A-T!

This is a good basic recipe. I thought it was a little on the bland side but nothing a little chopped onion, garlic, cumin and Adobo didn't fix. All these things I added to taste so no measurements to give to you. Cheap and easy meal. Enjoy!

Just like Mom used to make for us as kids after my Dad got out of the service! I made it with some suggestions from other reviewers and my family really enjoyed this served over noodles. I'll definately be making this again

I thought this was very good! Per the reviews, I added some onion, garlic powder and worchestershire sauce. I tried it with the toast and it was tasty but then I put some over some pasta shells and it was more my speed! :-)

This is so addictive, I can't stop eating it. I used finely diced onions, minced garlic, and lots of Worcestershire sauce, during the browning of the meat. To give the whole thing a health boost, I used brown flour, for some hidden fiber in the mix. It works just as well as white flour, with added benefits. It was so good I just ate it like soup. But will have it with rye toast with the kids.

I have to say being a military brat and an active duty USMC it needs diced onion, garlic powder, worchester sauce and a dash of hot sauce. Just like the others have said.

Easy, tasty and versatile. The kids loved it. We'll definitely be trying this several different ways - over rice, add carrots, over noodles as stroganoff, . . .

Wonderful! My wife's stomach was bothering her, so I needed something that wasn't spicy at all. I found this recipe and thought I'd give it a try. Expecting it to be boring and flavorless, I was in for quite the surprise! It's very easy to make and quite tasty. The flavor reminded us a little of chicken fried steak. I used ground turkey instead of beef. Turned out great.

I found this recipe a couple of weeks ago when looking for something to do with hamburger. I've have hamburger gravy before and liked it. This on the other hand was AWESOME! I'm a mom of 2 and this was quick, easy and terrific. It makes a very nice hearty meal. I served mine with egg noodles and we had green beans for a side. It's not the most attractive meal, but who cares when it taste this good!

I thought this recipe was simple and delicious. I seasoned the ground beef while it was cooking with Seasoned Salt, onions, and diced garlic. Then I also added (per the suggestion of some other members) Worcestershire to the cream sauce. Because of the seasonings I added, it didnt need much salt. I served it on Texas Toast and it was great!

This was good. It was cheap and easy for a family of 4. My kids loved it. I think it's because it had to do with USMC. They want to be like Marines!

A wonderful SOS - takes me way back to a great time - the chow hall. I did add soy sauce and worsteshire sauce and, because I did not have evaporated milk, I used whipping cream and it turned out to be rich and flavorful. I did need to cut it a bit with milk though. I also used the gravy mixture for swiss steak which was very tasty. Over all we'll have it again and again.
