Easy Giblet Gravy Recipes

GIBLET GRAVY

Steps:

• Pour the contents of the giblet bags into a large saucepan. Cover with water and boil until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside. Remove the giblets from the pan, allow them to cool, and then chop up the gizzards and liver. Pick the meat from the neck. Discard the bones.
• Pour all the turkey drippings out of the roasting pan into a separate container. Allow grease to separate from the juices. Ladle out the fat into another bowl.
• Place the roasting pan over 2 burners over medium heat (there should be lots of yummy brown bits in the pan). Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the fat back into the pan. Whisk it around to evenly distribute it throughout the pan. Sprinkle 5 to 6 tablespoons of flour over the grease and whisk to combine it with the fat, loosening the bits from the bottom of the pan a little in the process. Cook the roux until it becomes a deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour in the chicken broth, whisking constantly. Add 2 to 4 cups, depending on your need. Cook the gravy, whisking gently, until the mixture begins to thicken. Pour in a little bit of the turkey drippings, but be aware that because the brine is so salty, these drippings are very salty. Keep cooking the gravy until thick, adding in chopped giblets, to taste, as well as plenty of black pepper. Use the giblet water from the saucepan to thin the gravy if it gets too thick.
• Serve when very thick and flavorful.

CREAMY GIBLET GRAVY

Steps:

• Giblet Stock: In a stock pot, combine the giblets, neck, water, onion, celery, carrot, bay leaf, and thyme. Over high heat, bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, until the stock is flavorful, about 2 hours. Strain stock through a fine-mesh strainer and into a large bowl, reserving the giblets and discarding the neck. Finely chop giblets and set aside. Set stock aside to cool.
• Place the roasting pan with the turkey drippings across two burners over medium heat. Stir with a wooden spatula, scraping up any browned bits, or "fond," from the bottom of the pan; if necessary, add water to help deglaze the pan. Strain the liquid from the pan through a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl. Set aside to allow the fat to rise to the top.
• Gravy: First, make a roux. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of the fat from the strained drippings. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk until the flour is incorporated and no longer raw, 1 minute. Now add the stock, about a ½ cup at a time, whisking continuously and making sure it's completely absorbed before adding more. Small additions of liquid and continuous whisking are the keys to smooth gravy. Whisk in the pan drippings, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
• Finally, add cream and chopped giblets; stir, taste, and adjust seasoning again. Keep warm until ready to transfer to gravy boat or bowl.
