This was actually the first time I didn't end up with lumpy gravy at Thanksgiving! I'm usually so distracted cooking a whole turkey dinner, I end up with lumpy gravy, but this recipe is foolproof. The key is to slowly pour the broth in while constantly whisking. I even used gluten-free flour and it came out wonderful.

This is the way I make my gravy and it never fails. I do scrape the roasting pan to get all the bits off for flavor and add that in with the drippings. Depending on what I have sometimes I use water, milk, broth or a combination. If the gravy comes out to light, I add a dash of Kitchen Bouquet or Gravy Master. Be sure to check for seasoning before serving...most of the time I need more salt and pepper. Thanks for posting!

<p>I am not a very interesting person. I like to cook, I like to eat, and I love my husband Rick and my son Hugh. Thats pretty much it when it comes to me, that and an obsession for cats, especially our 2, Bunny & Bindy Sue. We live in Lake Dallas, TX, and have been married since August 16th, 2003. Hugh was born October 19th, 2009. Rick and I met on the internet in September 2001, and when we were married I moved from NJ where I grew up, to the big, scary, strange city of Dallas. There are things I like about Dallas and things I don't. I am definitely homesick for some real NY style pizza.</p>
