McCormick Poultry Gravy Mix, 18 oz

This PREMIUM poultry gravy is much better then McCormick regular red label. We've used both. Comments for 'RED label' are in footnote. -------------------------------------------------------- This is a PREMIUM gravy that will go with chicken or turkey, it's a quick fix with a flavorful taste. It doesn't have the stronger taste like McCormick turkey gravy does. The entire 20 oz bottle yields 1 gallon of gravy = 16 cups. and can be prepared in any smaller amount you need ~ this bottle goes a long way. Directions are included on the bottle ~ lift white arrow at left-hand bottom corner of back label. It's prepared just the opposite of the single packs which I consider a real plus. DIRECTIONS RECIPE SIZE --------- 1 Cup ------- 1 Quart ------- 1 Gallon -----------------------^---------------^---------------^----- GRAVY MIX ---------- 1/4 cup ------ 1 cup ------ full bottle WATER --------------- 1 cup ------- 4 cups ------- 1 gallon > BRING water to boil. Remove from heat. > GRADUALLY whisk in gravy mix. > WHISK 30 seconds to 1 minute. If thinner consistency is desired, stir in additional hot water as needed. I've found the gravy is thickened & ready in less then 30 sec. For comparison ~ McCormick ~ single ~ packets contain 0.87 oz and yield 1 cup. The single packs must be watched over from the beginning. 1. First add the contents in the pan ~ 2. Gradually add water while stirring frequently with a whisk until it comes to a boil ~ 3. Keep stirring on simmer 1 min. or until gravy thickens. I appreciate the more convenient way this gravy is prepared and the economical cost. Our family regularly uses several flavors of McCormick gravy's in these large size bottles and all are excellent! Poultry ~ Brown ~ Au Jus ~ Country Gravy ~ Taco seasoning. ------------------------------------------------------------ FOOTNOTE ~ McCormick RED label poultry gravy Taste OK ~ but is disappointing if you've used McCormick PREMIUM gravy. DIRECTIONS - RECIPE SIZE ------- 1 1/4 Cup ------- 1 Quart ------- 1 Gallon -----------------------^-----------------^--------------^----- GRAVY MIX --------- 1/4 cup ------ 1 cup + 2 tbsp -- full bottle WATER --------------1 1/4 cup ------- 1 quart -------- 1 gallon MIX poultry gravy mix and water in saucepan until well blended. BRING to boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat. SIMMER for 5 to 8 minutes. WELL! I was skeptical, because the PREMIUM gravy directions call for 1 cup water to 1/4 c mix. So I didn't use the extra 1/4 c water. Simmered the mix for 8 minutes and it never did get quite as thick as the original gravy. (Seems to me the only reason this 18 oz bottle makes 1 gallon is because the gravy is much thinner and I prefer the 'PREMIUM' 30 to 60 sec. stir time rather then 'RED' 5 to 8 min simmer) McCormick tip - for richer creamier gravy substitute 1/4 of the water with milk. Doesn't contain MSG or artificial flavors. Instructions on back of bottle, peal back label.

Great taste. Like homemade gravy. Doesn't take a lot powder to make gravy.. I will certainly buy it again.

Nice gravy

its very different from the one that came from south east asia. same company, same named flavor but very different taste and color.

a simple tablespoon or two makes a refined gravy not too salty. not a chemical after taste. not just for fowl. alone on mashed potatoes
