Very good. A few variations I made do to my taste, such as: used Table Cream instead of Ha;f & Half; didn't use any garlic; less pepper than suggested; sauteed onions at the beginning stages of this yummy recipe. This recipe is similar to our Mennonite cream gravy called 'Schmauntfatt' only this recipe has way less fat which is wonderful. Thank you for posting.

I thought this gravy was awesome!!! I made with 2%milk and no chicken broth, since I didn't have any.I did use garlic powder, lots of pepper, and a little garlic powder and drippings from a a pork loin roast. I served this over mashed potatoes and the roast. This was my first attempt making gravy and was quite surprised how well this turned out for my first attempt. There will be no need for me to try another gravy recipe, I have found it!!! Thanks so much!!!!
