This recipe is terrible. The flour to stock ratio is too low, 1 1/2 tablespoons to 6 cups. I had to keep adding flour and keep cooking down the gravy to get a decent consistency. Thank goodness I did this the day before Thanksgiving because I wouldn't have had time to fuss over it on Thanksgivng day!

This was a good gravy and everyone liked it. I used a smoked thigh and a raw turkey wing since I couldn't find a smoked wing. I browned the wing and then added the veggies and smoked wing. I cooked it longer since the wing was raw. I cooked it in the oven a bit longer too. I then put the mixture in the fridge overnight. The next day I warmed it up then followed the recipe from there. It did not thicken like it should have, so I ended up making a roux and adding it. It finally thickened but still was a bit runny.

Tyler did it AGAIN! This was delicious. I didn't use the garlic, and I used McCormick steak seasoning on my turkey. This is now my new Thanksgiving gravy.

This recipe was fantastic. My wife and I could not find smoked wings so we used a smoked leg and it came out perfect!!!

Brandi in Friendswood, TX mentioned that you followed the recipe to a T yet it was so salty it was inedible. The recipe only calls for salt and pepper to taste, so maybe you purchased chicken stock that was too salty, or if you made your own, the problem could have been there. Unusual as it is for me, I added maybe a pinch of salt. I would encourage you to try it again, make sure you use a low-sodium stock and it should be fantastic.

Gravy usually scares me. Not any more! How easy to roast the veggies & wings, add flour, stock & viola! Gravy! The more stock you add, the more gravy you will have in the end, just takes a bit longer to reduce. Fantastic!

Use this recipe instead of the "Turkey Gravy" one further on. The one that uses water instead of broth has no flavor.

This gravy recipe is OUTSTANDING!! I used two regular turkey wings (large ones instead of the smoked wings. I also allowed the pot of wings, vegetables and herbs to roast in the oven for about 45 minutes to an hour instead of 30 minutes. I added just a bit more flour than the recipe calls for and it was absolutely perfect. I am putting it in the refrigerator now and am hoping the flavor gets better before the big day tomorrow!

Tip: I did not need to salt anything after the gravy was done. I added maybe a sprinkle of kosher salt just before sticking it in the oven to roast. Other than that, NO SALT needed afterwards. Good luck!

Great idea for a flavorful gravy. Small note on the recipe text: I can't figure out why the recipe calls for 5 T olive oil and then uses only 3. I also let things roast a little longer and simmer a little longer. Made two days in advance of Thanksgiving.

Thanks to those who who added the roux - good call! Add the smoked turkey meat back in with your immersion blender - also helps it thicken!
