This Is a good recipe the trick to good chipped beef is use a high grade of smoked dry beef the harder it Is smoked the better you need that salt taste and I find that whole milk will change the taste also yes it Is not the best meal for the heart thats for sure! Its not something you should eat every week . If you are running your dry beef under water before you cook it dont even bother making this recipe this will change the taste. ..Thanks for sharing your great recipe!

I have made this many times,my mother made it,it was called something different when we grew up..S on A Shingle. LOL! My dad was military and he was the one who first made it, mom made a better white sauce than our dad. It is great with day old bread toasted and fresh green peas or green beans or a salad.

Needs more like 6 ounces of meat, and LOTS of black pepper. And, I added granulated garlic after t cooked because this sauce needed some ooomph! The way the recipe is, IMO, is "OK".... definitely not worth 5 stars. People give out 5 stars way too easily. Quite edible.... 3 stars..... maybe would have gone 3.5 if it was an option.

I was looking for something to make for dinner last night with my almost bare fridge and saw this picture... :) I had ham instead of beef, but it was still quite tasty! I only had a couple tablespoons of butter, so I added a bit of parmesan cheese to thicken it up a bit more. It was so tasty on toast--I never would have thought of doing that. Anyway, the whole family loved it.. thanks for posting! (My 4 year old told me an hour after dinner that he wanted to have a friend over the next day to eat it again since he liked it so much. :))
