    Can this be madewith 1% milk? Lol looked this up on the spot and unfortunately I do not have whole milk on hand. Let me know please would love to try this! thank you.

  3. Stop giving instructions says:

    Worst recipe ever. What does “Add bacon grease a skillet over” even mean first off? Clumps start to form immediately at the first stroke of the stir so are you tellijg me to stop storring the second I see a clump? 3 cups of milk is in the ingredienta liat but you only say to pour in two. You say “repeat until gravy is thick and creamy” but if you put more milk it is going to make the gravy more thin. You need to find a new hobbie. You cannot direct cooking.

      English please

      Relaxxxxx lmao. If you can’t understand those VERY simple instructions, you’re the problem. The recipe worked perfectly for me. Maybe look inward and reevaluate your life if you’re THIS upset over a recipe that no one forced you to make.

      Perhaps you should attempt this recipe while sober and you’d achieve a better outcome. Just a thought…

    • hmkreighbaum says:

      Wow… you obviously did not even try to cook it or you would know adding milk is a crucial part of gravy! I guess you have never made gravy before… this is the basic way to make any gravy! Do not troll unless you have tried it… this is a great recipe!

    Had a wonderful flavor and easy to make!!

  5. Bobby Chandler says:

    Made this recipe today followed instructions to the tee and to me it’s tastes to milky it doesn’t have any good typical flavor/ seasoning. It literally tastes like thick milk. Any suggestions to addd flavor?

    Homemade gravy is simple grease of any kind sprinkle in flour don’t over cook the flour or it will turn brown then add milk salt and pepper this will work if stated correctly three cups is to much gravy will be thin you will have to boil out and turn up heat the most simple recipe turned hard over dialogue it’s all about presentation

  7. Capt ARRRGH! says:

    Very simple, this worked out just great for me! Simple instructions to follow too! This is so easy, a caveman can do it! Got a bit thicker than I’d like, so I just kept adding a bit of milk at a time till I was satisfied with the consistency. Thank You for this.

    Comment trolls on the otherhand, I can not speak for them… after all, they speak for themselves.

    Im not feeding an army, just 2 people. So i did one third of every ingredient. Way too much flour. Probably needed half that flour. Also people need to know to add flour slowly while using a whisk and brown the flour before adding milk. Add the milk slowly and continue using whisk. Also it needs more salt.

    way too much flour

  10. Ryan Downs says:

    This was the worst recipe! Thanks for a thick paste of nothing.

  11. Jojo says:

    That was a very good recipe! I just needed a refresher, it’s been a while. I think the problem a lot of people may be having is the recipe leaves some directions out. Melt the grease then SLOWLY add the flour, you might need a little bit less. Continuously WHISK don’t use a spoon!

  12. Cjenx says:

    I used exactly what the recipe called for. Perfect consistency. Not sure why there are so many negative reviews. I’ve made plenty of gravy but wasn’t sure how to incorporate bacon grease. Found this simply recipe and there is really no difference in the way I’ve made the others. Thank you for the help and will definitely be adding this to our Saturday brunch!
