Some dishes don’t need fancy ingredients or complicated instructions to win your heart—they just need to show up with flavor, warmth, and memories. Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast, also lovingly known as “SOS” by many military families, is one of those timeless comfort meals that hits the spot every time.
Whether you grew up eating it at grandma’s house, in a military mess hall, or are discovering it for the first time, this dish is creamy, salty, savory, and deeply satisfying. Plus, it comes together in minutes with just a few pantry staples.
What Is Creamed Chipped Beef?
Creamed chipped beef is a simple but hearty dish made with dried beef (often found in jars or vacuum-sealed packets), cooked in a rich white sauce, and served over toasted bread. It’s old-school, budget-friendly, and loaded with flavor.
The saltiness of the beef pairs perfectly with the creamy roux-based sauce, and when spooned over warm, crispy toast? Pure nostalgic heaven.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1½ cups milk (whole milk works best)
1 jar (2.5 oz) dried beef, sliced into strips
Black pepper to taste
4 slices of toasted bread (white, wheat, or sourdough—your choice)
