I love this stuff, and was raised on it as well. When I'm pressed for time I skip the homemade gravy and just use cream of mushroom soup and a cup of milk. I also add onion ?

Sos — stuff on a Shingle, After being wounded in Italy in 1944, my grandfather returned home and improvised a dish he was often served in the military The Army called it Chipped Beef on Toast The soldiers called it Something (I can’t mention here) On a Shingle, and in classic military tradition, that name was reduced to SOS My grandfather taught this recipe to my dad, who, in turn, also taught it to my mother and me My mother, who is offended by the idea of having the first S of SOS on her table, calls it Creamed Beef on Toast All measures are approximate Because of this, the recipe multiplies well Heck, you could make enough to feed an army ;-), I love this stuff, and was raised on it as well When I’m pressed for time I skip the homemade gravy and just use cream of mushroom soup and a cup of milk I also add onion ?, My dad was a marine, made it the same way we were only aloud to called grey stuff try it on potatoe patties, toast it was great on Sundays when we had to load wood as kids

Steps

1
Done

Combine Ground Beef, Onion and Garlic on a Large Skillet or Pot, and Brown the Beef.

2
Done

Once the Beef Is Browned and Your Onions Clear, Add the Flour. There Are Two Important Things to Note Here - (1) Do not Drain the Beef (2) Add Enough Flour to Completely Absorb All the Liquid in the Pan.

3
Done

Once All Fluid Is Absorbed by the Flour and You Have a Nice Roux, Add Your Milk. Again, Remember That the Measures Are Approximate. So, You Want to Add About Twice as Much Milk as Flour.

4
Done

*do not Be Afraid of Adding Too Much Milk. If You Do, You Will Just Have to Cook It For Longer in the Next Step, but the Flavor Will Reward You For Your Efforts.

5
Done

Season With Salt and Pepper and Bring to a Boil. Reduce Heat and Slowly Cook Away the Fluid, Stirring Often, Until You Have a Nice Thick Milk Gravy.

6
Done

Spoon Generous Amounts Over Dry Toast (like an Open-Faced Sandwich) and Enjoy.

7
Done

We Never Have It With a Salad or Veggies, but They Would Go Well This Dish.
