Which animal, in your opinion which will no doubt be different from others, is the basis for the best gravy?

I nominate the Eastern gray squirrel, Sciurus carolinensis.
 
I’d be torn on that one because I do love some squirrel gravy but it’s pretty hard to beat gravy made after you cook good breakfast sausage (pork or venison).
 
I mean good gravy needs good fat so beef chuck roast or pork shoulder for me.
 
You need fat as fat has most of the flavor. The fat can't be too strong, though. I have had some baked raccoon though did not make gravy. I missed the boat back in my youth when ran a trapline and ran raccoons with red tick hounds.
 
The fat for squirrel gravy is the fry oil. I guess that's also known as a bechamel, but it's always been called gravy.
 
In the same way I feel about chicken fried steaks and children, all gravys are intrinsically beautiful. I am partial to sausage gravy though.

It can be fancy:

It can be cheap:

It's utility is endless. When hot, it's good on everything. When cold and congealed, it might even be better on everything.


You can put it on day old frozen pizza with an egg:

You can dip your grilled cheese in it:

You can get it in a bowl on the side to wash down the main course:

It really is a building block of life. We now know, thanks to modern science, that the primordial soup in which the prebiotic conditions for earth's first microbes to grow 3.7 billion years ago was actually nothing but a peppered roux with milk and chunks of pork sausage in it.

Some cheesy bastard engaged in unwanted guitar playing around a fire might tell you we are nothing but stardust, but that's false. Really, we are nothing but gravy.

The master has spoken. May it forever be so.
