I can make lasagna, yiros, beef stew, and so much more but I couldn't make gravy. My grandmother made the best gravy but mine never tasted like anything close to gravy, well cardboard gravy sause was as close as I could get to it. Thank you so much for this recipe, I consider myself a well rounded cook now. - 04 Jul 2013
