  • Shouldn't really matter. Lard, bacon drippings, suet, chicken schmaltz...it's all good. But for SOS, I just use butter.

    I use the cheep ground beef with lots of fat, and some onion. after it is cooked I place a few tablespoons butter and flour in the pan and mix, then some milk or sour cream until texture I want add some worchestershire sauce, hot sauce and some s/p. How is your spice project progressing?

    Yup, I agree with Ben, fat is fat and all butter ain't no sin in my book. Bacon drippings would be my second choice. Good Lord, I haven't had SOS in a million years. My mother raised us on it, it was one thing we all liked. We always had it on a nice baked potato so I guess it would be SOP. :lol:

    Sounds good miles,

    skip the chipped beef and make it with baked salmon and add some peas. thats the way we used to get it up north. this recipe would work salmon and peas used to be traditonal around the fourth, next day evryone made salmon sos, one of those things that changed over the years

    you can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it
  • My mom always used the dried beef that comes in little glass jars in the canned meat section of the grocery (right next to the canned tuna and devilled ham). I don't think I've ever had it any other way. We always called it "creamed dry beef." I can remember each of us kids getting a few slices of the dried beef and tearing them into little pieces. My wife and I still make it every couple months for a quick and easy meal.

    Good iron skillet and 50 + years of stirring meat grease, flour and sweet milk and lots of fresh groung black pepper.
    I bet that salmon and pea gravy is good also. Tonight I will try to post that Mayberry rec. from Aunt Bee's cookbook with the ground chuck & gravy. Smiles to you.

    Fishlessman, thanks for the memories! I haven't thought about the salmon and peas recipe in many years That's how my mom made it...she still does! She was raised on the North Shore. I lived there many years, also.

    For chipped beef my NC mom just put some butter in the pan and kinda fried the cut up dried beef a tad. Sprinkled on some flour and add milk. I love the stuff myself.
