I always do this too. Nannc what does the hard boiled egg do in the gravy? a thickener? After I boil the neck with a stalk of celery and onion I take off whatever meat and use that in the stuffing. I cook the heart and giblets with the turkey and hubby and daughter argue over who get what. The liver I fry up for the dog so they could celebrate too. Have you ever not taken the giblet pack out of the neck? Don't ask!!!
