It's just gravy. But it's a requirement for Thanksgiving dinner. This is one of my go-to recipes. You can make it in less time than it takes to go to the grocery store and study the offerings of gloppy gravy in jars (usually laden with sodium and pretty flavorless.)
Admittedly this gravy recipe is from Better Homes and Gardens website. Again. Can't help myself. Used to be a food editor there and I know the amount of testing that is done in the Test Kitchen before a recipe is ready for public consumption. This one's a winner. I've never added the extra butter. And sometimes I skip the milk and just use broth.

I am definitely saving enough drippings to try this on Thursday - could open up a whole new gravy world for me, and I'm always up for that. My dad used to say that you can never have enough gravy ready on Thanksgiving, and he was right. More than once, I've jumped up in the middle of the meal to stir up another batch. Thanks for sharing!
