Unfortunately the amount of dripping was only a few tablespoons so will have to wait for the next roast to try other ideas. Wish I has saved the juices under the fat now as would make a great gravy stock. Could freeze it until needed?

So how did you make your gravy?

Dripping, toast, salt and pepper and I'm happy :)
 
We produce 'duck dripping' by rendering duck fat. The resulting spread is delicious and contains about a gazillion calories and the cracklings make for a tasty snack too.

I remember having dripping sandwiches from my Nan when I was a child, however have not had it for years (must easily be 15/20 years).
Question is, which joint of beef makes the best dripping?

Bisto and veg cooking water. I remember I once tried to make a gravy with the juices fresh from the Lamb roast and ended up with a greasy horrible sludge which ruined the meal! Put me off using the roast juices. Now I know it separates into meat juice and fat things will be different!
 
a nice thick slice of bread dipped in the juices from the joint ,no other taste like it :) :)

Saw an episode of Man Verses Food where they went to a place that does beef Sub sandwiches then they dip the whole thing in a great vat of meat juices from the slow roasting of the joints they used. Absolute heaven!
 
Dripping. Luv it

In our house its usually a race to see who gets to the dripping first. Couple.slices of bread. Drenched in dripping I can.taste it now.
When I went.to the gathering I made.a point.of having.a nice meat burger and. Two baps drenched in dripping. Every day (my.doc.went.nuts )
 
Don't know if they still stock it as I moved nearer another supermarket but Morrison's used to sell quite a decent dripping complete with the jelly.

Now it's been mentioned I think an expedition to Morrison's is called for soon

you'll get it from a butchers anyway, and some butchers sell both pork dripping and beef dripping, my butcher sells both for the same price of £1.29 a pot.
 
this thread has made me think of some of the common food which was eaten years ago. chitterlings (intestines), brains, pigs trotters, chawl, brawn, tongue, tripe and onions (which used to be sold in chip shops), batter bits were given away free from chip shops, to name just a few.
