Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy
Ingredients (Serves 4)
Salisbury Steaks
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 works best)
- ⅓ cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp oil (for frying)
Mushroom Gravy
- 2 tbsp butter
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Make the Patties
- In a bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Mix gently until just combined.
- Shape into 4 oval patties.
2. Brown the Steaks
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Cook patties 4–5 minutes per side until nicely browned.
- Remove patties from skillet and set aside (they’ll finish cooking in the gravy).
3. Make the Mushroom Gravy
- In the same skillet, melt butter.
- Add mushrooms and cook until softened and browned (5–6 minutes).
- Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir for 1 minute.
- Slowly whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
- Simmer until thickened, about 3–4 minutes.
4. Simmer Together
- Return patties to the skillet.
- Spoon gravy over them.
- Cover and simmer 10–15 minutes until patties are fully cooked and tender.
Serve With
- Mashed potatoes 🥔
- Egg noodles 🍜
- Rice 🍚
- Green beans or peas 🫛
Tips for Extra Flavor
- Use ground beef + ground pork (half and half) for extra tenderness.
- Add a splash of heavy cream to the gravy for a richer finish.
- A pinch of thyme or onion powder boosts that old-school diner flavor.
If you want, I can also share:
- A slow cooker Salisbury steak version
- A creamier onion gravy twist
- Or a budget-friendly version using frozen patties
