Chipped beef? Maybe in boot camp but out in
the Corps. it was usually hamburger.
Imagine if you will, lumps of gray meat in a
white gravy...Yum.

“Chipped beef? Maybe in boot camp but out in the Corps. it was usually hamburger. Imagine if you will, lumps of gray meat in a white gravy...Yum.” Yeh, it was hamburger meat in the army too. I liked it and make it at home every now and then to this day. The fam can’t stand it so I have it all to myself. I think the Korean War era was probably when chipped beef was last used but not sure. Maybe an old Korean War vet will weigh in for us 😉...
