In the military and across the South, this is famously known as S.O.S. (Sh*t on a Shingle). It’s essentially a savory, creamy gravy made with beef and served over toasted bread (the “shingles”).
While the military version often uses chipped beef, the Southern Comfort version uses seasoned ground beef for a heartier, more flavorful meal.
