Giblet Gravy

Recipesfull introduces to you: Thanksgiving Recipes. (Giblet Gravy). My mother has made this old-fashioned giblet gravy every Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember! It is delicious with turkey and mashed potatoes. Start making this while the turkey is cooking since it requires about two hours of simmering.
