Am I the only one? I grew up with chipped beef gravy, sausage gravy, and egg gravy. It's the same roux-based gravy but with chopped up hard boiled eggs instead of sausage.
When I met my wife 35 years ago she said "you ate what?". I've made it a few times, nobody else in my family will touch it. I've mentioned it a few times to people I know and get the same reaction.
So, am I the only one who's family made this?

Mom made gravy with that salty beef that was sliced real thin and came in little jars. Made gravy with sausage, with the greases and crunchy’s from frying chicken or pork, with hamburger too but never eggs. I may try it. Anything to know besides putting hard boiled eggs in it?

Are you sure it wasn't gravy served over hard boiled eggs, don't see how egg n yoke could stay together in a rue gravy, to answer never heard of it.

I guess only our family that ate this. Wonder who's idea it was.
It was just a roux with some milk to make a white gravy. A little salt and pepper. And add chopped up hard boiled eggs. We ate it over biscuits or toast.
