    This was my contribution to my thanksgiving dinner with my parents, and we LOVED it. My dad brines our thanksgiving turkeys, so there were substantially more juices to cook down and caramelize, and the gravy ended much darker and thicker as a result. My mom was a bit squeamish over the neck, but once it got strained, she couldn't get enough of it. Thank you, Master Proto.

    Frank, I love you. I have struggled with gravy for years, to the point where I no longer try. I take everything in the bottom of the pan and use that as the base for stuffing (which means I make a delicious stuffing). I used this method with some chicken wings and a turkey neck as a test run and it came out better than any gravy I've ever previously made. So now I've got the problem of wanting to use my turkey dripping mirepoix base for two things. May need to roast 2 turkeys this year...

    I usually put the Mirepoix in later because since they are mostly liquid, they would steam thus stunting possible browning on the meat.
    One thing I like to do is finish by mounting butter to the sauce.
