@shortbreadlover I love chipped beef but don't make it often. I usually buy the Stouffers frozen and while it is good, it's not homemade.

I got sick on it once as a child. Haven't touched it since! Glad everyone else seems to like it!

I make my mother's recipe for this dish:

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup chopped onion

1/4 cup flour

1 tsp dry mustard

1 1/2 cups half and half

1 1/2 cups milk

1 cup chicken broth

1 12-oz can corned beef, chopped

Melt butter in saucepan. Stir in onion and cook over medium heat for 1 minute. Stir in flour and dry mustard and cook 1 minute. Slowly whisk in half and half, milk, and broth. Simmer over low heat until thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in beef until hot.

I would classify that as dog food, not people food.

@deepwaterdotter. While your recipe sounds delish, it's not chipped beef. Chipped beef comes in little glass jars. Yours sounds better.

I made this yesterday for breakfast. My DH likes it on toast. I have left overs in the fridge for another day.

I buy chipped beef in an envelope like package...never even noticed that it was sold in a jar.

@Kachina624, I hope you didn't mean to sound so rude. Some of us grew up in the 50s when our moms made dried beef on toast for a meal. My mother made a white sauce and added chopped up dried beef from the little glass jar, and served it on toast. My parents were blue collar workers - this was a staple once a month, and we sure didn't think it was dog food. My hubby and I remember those days and I still occasionally make this for the two of us. And no, I don't have dogs and I don't consider it dog food. BTW - this meal was a staple of the WW2 era....sorry that it's dog food to you.

@jannabelle Dog food would be the polite nomenclature for this concoction. Do you know what else it's called? It's SOS for short.

I'm quite familiar with post WW II gastric delights, and don't consider this to.be one of them.

I think the beef in a jar is very salty, and I have heard you are supposed to soak it in boiling water for a bit, to remedy this

Call it whatever insulting name you want, the fact is that dried chipped beef recipes receive hundeds of positive reviews, no matter which recipe site is at issue. Just google dried beef and you'll see.

Here's one.........

OMG. I have not thought of making this in years, but I am going to fix it really soon. Hubby won't touch it because he won't eat gravy type food. (foolish man). We had this when I was a kid in the 50's at least for one meal a week. My mother always added just a tiny sprinkle of curry powder. Guess a lot of GI's from the war brought this recipe home to the wives to cook. Sometimes she used hamburger instead. Thanks for the memories.

I make mine with ground beef using this basic recipe plus I add sauteed onions:

It's easy to scale so you can make a smaller portion if need be.

Yum I remember eating SOS when I lived at home. I make it every once in a while. We have not ate it for quite some time.

It's like sausage gravy we like on biscuits.

Easy way to make it is to fry 1 lb of sausage, drain grease, sprinkle 1 packet of McCormicks original gravy over sausage, add 2 cups water, turn up heat to get bubbling, turn down let simmer & keep stirring to thicken. YUM!!!

I make this & put in the freezer. DH takes to work to eat for breakfast sometimes.

Yes you can make your own gravy to pour over sausage but if you are in a hurry this does work.

Per my husband who served 4+ years in service, the cooks used fatty ground beef in this recipe specifically for the laxative effect it created.

I grew up with flavored milk gravy on biscuits or toast several times a week. The gravy was usually flavored with ground beef, pork sausage, cube steak, ham, corned beef, even chicken. Gravy was a favorite with my family for breakfast or supper, and we still enjoy it occasionally. Even my adult daughters will ask for sausage gravy and biscuits several times a year.
