Turkey Neck Gravy

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Simmer Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 25 minutes

Ingredients  

  • drippings from grilled or roasted turkey
  • turkey giblets and neck
  • 2 cups turkey, chicken, or vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions 

  • In a medium saucepan add the giblets and neck from a raw turkey and cover with broth. Bring the liquid to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low.
  • Simmer for 1 hour to cook the meat and to make a giblet broth for the gravy.
  • Remove the giblet and neck from the saucepan. Strain and reserve the giblet broth.
  • Add some of the broth to the roasting pan and using a spatula or wooden spoon scrape the bottom of the pan. Gently dislodge the browned bits, stirring them into the liquid.
  • Pour the deglazed turkey drippings into a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the flour, a little bit of broth, and cook, whisking until golden and it makes a smooth paste, about 5 minutes.
  • Continue adding the giblet broth, a cup at a time, while whisking. Bring the gravy to a simmer, whisking often.
  • Reduce the heat and simmer the gravy for about 10 to 15 minutes.
