In thbis case, canned mushrooms work better. I am with you on the
black olives!

Chip beef, hamburger and about a jillion other things. Black olives
get my veto as well.

I think the olives would overpower the mushrooms.

But separately, I think both sound deliciously funky.

Well if you want to get keelhauled or
hung from the yardarm, I guess you
could add those things.

What is this some kind of fancy Air Force SOS?

Why can't some basic foods just be left as they are and not screwed
with.

Yes, go Saints! I also agree, nothing but browned hamburger and onion mixed
into a nice cream gravy...with lots of pepper.

Real SOS needs/wants nothing... why do people need to *******ize a

I made that once and only once. It was just creamed chipped beef on toast.
I thought I had liked it as a child. Guess I was wrong.

Dried beef, flour, milk, pepper.

Mushrooms might work for me. Kiss the veto-er for me.
They have good taste.<g>

Sounds like my friends mom who always made black eyed peas and coarse white
cornbread when I was a kid. I went there a lot to feast on it. It was a long
time ago, but it still stands out in my mind as something really wonderful.

They are, and isn't it funny that a person can never quite make that stuff
taste as good as it did then no matter what you do to it?

While it may be a somewhat bland dish it is actually quite good if done
right. Most always it is undercooked and the raw flour flavor permeates the
dish. My local diner serves it and it is a tasty dish.

Are we siblings? :-) We did too, and unpasteurized milk, and turkeys
defrosting on counters for a couple of days before Thanksgiving and
Christmas, and raw eggs in many things like milkshakes, egg nog, etc. and
none of us ever got sick, not once.

No, that's not true. Army SOS is made with hamburger, as are many of the SOS
recipes which includes chipped beef.

Mushrooms by all means. Saute them separately first, in a bit of butter,
until they're getting dry and have browned nicely. Dump 'em out, make
the bechamel in the same pan, and put them back in when you add the
dried beef.

I hope the cornbread was split, with the peas and some pan juice on top.
Yum.

Sausage is far more likely to be shit than any other kind of meat.
Dried chipped beef is probably the purest form of cooked beef there
is... it's essentially dehydrated corned beef sliced paper thin. There
is but one and only one classic SOS, all the others are stand ins for
those who won't spend the bucks for the real deal
http://www.foodsubs.com/MeatDried.html
http://www.hormelfoods.com/brands/ho...driedbeef.aspx
The only reason SOS lost its popularity is price, quality dried
chipped beef costs near $100/lb... SOS was the most expensive dish the
US Navy served, so the real deal wasn't served very often... much more
often it was made with hamburger... I hated serving the burger
version, it was embarrassing... most was left uneaten. With the real
deal I could never make enough. The supply officer was hard pressed
to sign off on Chipped Dried Beef.

My mom used to make Milkshakes and put a raw egg in them, also we
either cooked almost everything in Bacon grease( kept in a can on the
stove) or else pour4ed it on somethins, such as wilted lettuce.

I don't know how you managed to find the single most expensive example
on the internet, but it's a bit misleading. Try again and this time
scroll down to Customers Who Viewed This Item Also Viewed:

http://tinyurl.com/d4odmkg

I will admit I didn't realize chipped beef was dried sliced corned
beef, itself already almost prohibitively expensive. I do recall
those little jars already near $5 per jar the last time I
looked. I wonder if it's possible to slice up a jes cooked corned
beef and dry it, at home. Corned beef becomes almost affordable
around St Pats day. I usually buy 3-4 roasts, myself. Would a simple
dehydrator work?

I've actually never bought chipped dried beef, got all I wanted from
the ship's stores. I cooked a lot of SOS but I really didn't care
much for it, I haven't made any since the early '60s. Maybe after
cooking SOS in 80 quart batches every week for four years one doesn't
want to look at it again. I really don't like too many things cooked
in bechamel. I prefer sauces thickened with corn starch.

Ach!! Blasphemy!!

We had a "cook" ....I say cook, cuz he fancied himself a gourmet
chef.... in our company kitchen, that made corn starch based SOS. It
SUCKED!! I told him it should be flour based. He said it was his
right to use corn starch, the equivalent of poetic license. I told
him it was the equivalent of dog crap!

Some sauces deserve corn starch. SOS is not one of them. I can't
believe I'm hearing this from a Navy cook. In USAF mess halls, they'da
shot you dead!

nb

Ate it for 20 years so I know my SOS.

SOS aka foreskins on toast, is pure and simple and it's the
chipped/dried beef kind.

Under others, there a

Sausage Gravy, biscuits
Hamburger Gravy (white), biscuits
Hamburger Gravy (red) aka Minced Beef,
one step away from spaghetti sauce. Has
nutmeg in it. Toast
Forget the name, but a white gravy with
hard boiled eggs chopped up in it. Perhaps has cheese, only had that one
a
handful of times.

Nothing fancy, no extra or added bullshit.
I do like mine heavily peppered.

And chipped/dried beef does not cost a 100 bucks a pound. And AFAIK is
not made from brisket. A 2.5 oz jar of Armor
is about a buck seventy five.

I was just at the VA for a AM appointment. I got in early and had a big
plate of Sausage gravy on Grits.

i love wilted lettuce and wilted spinach, my grandmother made the best

I think peas might be a decent addition to the dried-beef version of SOS. I
think the ground-beef version of SOS is an abomination which cannot be
redeemed by adding anything.

I've never had the ground beef version, but if either one could use
some mushrooms - it would be the ground beef one. Olives? NO.

I used to love creamed chipped beef on toast as a kid; but chipped
beef came in a jar back then and I swear it tasted completely

I imagine that is what the difference is with me too. I just don't like the

There are some foods that I won't buy again. An example is a bread
made by a local factory bakery. I can't stand the smell and
subsequent taste of the bread that comes from the plastic bag. That
smell and taste is very real to me. It may be that the fabric of the
blister pack is affecting the taste for you.

I like the dried-beef version with hard-boiled egg (cut into large

You can still get it in the jar - it's in the canned meat aisle (along
with deviled ham, canned chicken breast, etc.).
