📝 Ingredients
For the Salisbury Steak Patties:
1 ½ lbs ground beef
1 packet (1 oz) dry onion soup mix
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt & black pepper to taste
For the Gravy:
1 packet (0.87 oz) brown gravy mix
1 ½ cups beef broth
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 cup sliced mushrooms (fresh or canned)
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Make the Patties
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, dry onion soup mix, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix just until combined — don’t overwork the meat.
Shape into 5–6 oval patties.
2. Brown the Patties (Optional but Recommended)
In a skillet over medium heat, sear the patties for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. This adds flavor and helps them hold together.
3. Prepare the Gravy
In a bowl, whisk together the gravy mix, beef broth, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce.
4. Assemble in Slow Cooker
Place sliced onions and mushrooms in the bottom of the slow cooker. Arrange the patties on top, then pour the gravy mixture over everything.
5. Cook Low & Slow
Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the patties are cooked through and tender.
6. Serve
Serve the Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice, and spoon plenty of that rich gravy on top.
