Ingredients
For the Drippings/Broth:
- Uncooked Turkey Neck and Backbone
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 3 carrots peeled and chopped
- 1 large onion diced
- 2 stalks celery chopped
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tsp. salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 4 cups chicken broth
For the Gravy:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pan (dutch oven or large saucepan) over medium high heat. Once melted, add in the turkey neck and backbone and brown all sides.
- Add in the onions, carrots and celery. Sauté until softened (3-5 minutes).
- Season with salt, pepper and bay leaves.
- Stir in the broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-30 minutes until the broth is reduced to approximately half of the original amount.
- Remove from heat, remove the neck, backbone and vegetables from the mixture and let cook slightly.
- Strain the remaining mixture through a mesh strainer to remove any solids and set aside.
- Melt the butter for the gravy in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Then whisk in the flour for approximately 1 minute.
- Gradually whisk in the reserved broth.
- Bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer (whisking constantly) until the mixture has thickened (approximately 5-10 minutes).
- Season with the salt and pepper and serve warm.
- Pour over your turkey and your favorite sides and enjoy!
Notes
- The gravy may thicken some as it sits.
- Warming the gravy backup will help to thin it out and you can also stir in more drippings or broth if needed.
- Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
