Comment on Make-Ahead Turkey Gravy by Cathy Pollak

In reply to Pattie W.

All of these questions are covered in the article, but I’ll clarify them here too.

Use the 6 cups of water called for in the recipe after roasting the wings and vegetables. You don’t need boxed turkey stock because you’re making your own stock from the roasted ingredients. You could use boxed stock, but it doesn’t give the same flavor, and I’d watch the salt since the liquid concentrates as it simmers.

I generally end up with about 2 cups of strained stock, sometimes a little more. Some liquid evaporates during the uncovered simmer, and some stays behind with the wings and vegetables when everything is strained. The recipe uses 2 cups for the gravy, so if you have extra, save it for thinning the gravy when reheating.

You can add carrots if you’d like, but they’re not part of my recipe. Thyme or sage would also be fine if you want herbs. I’d add those when the water goes in and the stock begins simmering. I don’t use carrots or herbs in this gravy because I want the roasted turkey flavor to come through, especially with the apple cider vinegar added at the end.

Hi. I have a couple o made this f questions. I made this some time ago. I knownit was excellent. After the veggies and wings are roasted, the liquid for simmering, should it be water or a broth? I have turkey stock, boxed kind. Will that work? After all the simmering is done, strained, defatted, how much liqid gold do you end up with?
Recipe says to use 2 cups of the stock to make the gravy. Seems like a small amount of stock when you use 6 cups of liquid for the simmering. Does it evaporate that much?
Just a bit confused. Sorry.
Also, would it benok to use carrots in the veggie mix, along with the onion and celery. And at what point would any herbs be added?
Thank you.

Hi. Just wanted to tell you I made the recipe (without the nuts) and it was fantastic! Very moist and deep banana flavor. You can’t taste the cottage cheese at all. I will definitely be making this again.

THIS IS A GREAT RECIPE. My husband smokes meat all the time on the smoker and it’s amazing, he has high standards for Texas bbq. He’s been really busy with work so I’ve made this for him several times now and he swears this recipe is better than most of the smoked meat sandwiches he’s had. I made El Sancho Sauce to go on this fyi, that’s our go to bbq sauce.

I tried the peach tea burnt ends recipe too and it was another huge hit! So every bbq recipe on this site has been a big win! Highly recommend both.
