creamed chipped beef
Dried beef gravy
Creamed chipped beef is a dish of dried beef in a white cream sauce, typically served over toast.
A staple of American military mess halls, it earned the nickname "shit on a shingle" (S.O.S.) from soldiers.
The dish remains a diner and home-cooking classic: My grandfather made creamed chipped beef every Sunday morning.
