I love this video. Now I feel more confident about making my own homemade turkey giblet gravy. I've had problems thickening my gravies in the past, but now don't think that will be a problem anymore!

Nice video - gravy scares a lot of people - it isn't hard at all really. I do deglaze the roasting pan with broth to pick up all the delicious bits from the pan.
