1 onion,sliced
3 medium carrots,peeled and sliced
3-4 garlic cloves,sliced

In a skillet,make gravy,using the broth the neck bones are cooking in to make the gravy.Uncover the pot,add gravy,onion,carrots garlic and potatoes to the neck bones,continue cooking until vegetables are tender and gravy is slightly thickened. If gravy is too thick,add additional broth or water. If not thick enough,make a slurry by combining 1 Tablespoon butter with 1 T flour well combined,stir a little into pot at a time until as thick as you like.Check for seasoning.
