Yorkshire Pudding

A dish loved by both my Step Father and Step Mother.  Not sure my bio parents were interested, it wasn't their heritage or family tradition (Moose was of Welsh descent, Anne of English descent).  I think Moose would increase the original recipe and use the original roasting pan, rather than transfer the drippings.  Yeah that's it.

Ingredients (increased by 33% to fill roasting pan)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup pan drippings from roast prime rib of beef  (whatever is available + butter if needed)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Sift together the flour and salt in a bowl. 
In another bowl, beat together the eggs and milk until light and foamy. 
Stir in the dry ingredients just until incorporated.  It should have consistency of a thin pancake batter. 
Pour the drippings into a 9-inch pie pan, cast iron skillet, or square baking dish. (Pyrex is not rated for 450 deg.) 
Put In the Roasting Pan in oven and get the drippings smoking hot. 
Carefully take the pan out of the oven and pour in the batter. 
Put the pan back in oven and cook until puffed and dry, 15 to 20 minutes.
