  • ive never had it but can tell you how to make your own special gravy..Jamaican style?

    fry your chicken off in oil after coating in a mix of flour, salt pepper and jerk seasoning then add each peice in a ovenproof dish, pour a good layer of normal gravy around chicken about a third of way up, i make up a mix of water and chicken oxo then add a bit of normal bisto.. cook in the oven and stir a bit till chicken is cooked, fried chicken in gravy..sorted!! serve with rice n peas if you like? great comfort food!

    i should think you could buy the gravy on the 23rd and keep it in the fridge just fine, no need to freeze it it's just a bit of grease, flour and flavouring, i can't see it going off that fast in the fridge, you can keep raw meat in the fridge for 3 days and cooked meat for longer so i really can't see that 36-48 hours in the fridge would see your gravy going off ;)

    If you want to make extra tasty but easy gravy at home:
    1 use the boiling veg water with gravy granules on a normal day.

    If roasting a chicken - I cook this in a dutch oven (a metal oval shaped sort of casserole dish with lid) and add about an inch of cold water as it goes in the oven, then cook for normal time, it keeps the chicken moist. When finished take chicken out and pour juice in clear jug in order to skim the fat. then boil this up with the vegetable water and when boiling add the gravy grans and Mix with fork. Yummy. HTH
