creamed chipped beef, yum. i chunk the beef in a strainer and pour some boiling water over it to remove some of the salt, then i use the same recipe. beyond wonderful over toast or home fried potatoes.

    I can remember coming home for lunch to creamed chipped beef on toast. My mom used to substitute Budds wafer thin chipped deli beef since it was cheaper than those little jars of dried beef. My grandmother also made this for us as a treat when we visited her. My pennsylvania dutch grandma knew what a good economical dish was. Thanks for the memory WJKing. This one will definetly be in my cookbook.

    Yum! I grew up eating this as a dinner. I use a little more flour as we like it thicker. It is wonderful over toast. Thanks.

    I grew up eating this! This was a real favorite served on my mom's homemade biscuits. We used almost any kind of leftover meat and served this for breakfast.

    My DH and Dad adore this recipe! I usually use a little more butter and flour as they like it thicker rather than runnier but all in all this is the same recipe I use. It is fantastic over toast and we usually eat this as a dinner rather than at breakfast. We also call it SOS, no further explanation needed I am sure
