Old Salisbury Steak Gravy (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Meat Patties

01 - 2 pounds of lean ground beef
02 - 1 medium yellow onion, chopped finely
03 - 1 sleeve of crushed saltine crackers
04 - 1 large egg
05 - 1/4 cup of milk
06 - 1 pack of McCormick Onion Gravy mix

→ Seasonings

07 - 1 tablespoon dried parsley
08 - 1 teaspoon black pepper
09 - 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder
10 - 1.5 teaspoons onion powder

→ Gravy

11 - 3 to 4 cups of diced white mushrooms
12 - 2 packs of McCormick Onion Gravy mix
13 - 3 and 1/2 cups of low-sodium beef broth
14 - 3 tablespoons of butter
15 - 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire or soy sauce

# Instructions:

01 - Don’t run mushrooms under water. Use a damp paper towel to clean them, then pat them completely dry. Chop and leave them aside.
02 - In a bowl, combine ground beef, the first gravy packet, chopped onions, crushed crackers, milk, egg, plus parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper. Gently mix everything together.
03 - Roll the mixture into 6–8 even-sized balls, then flatten each one into a patty about 1.5 inches thick and 3.5–4 inches across.
04 - Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a big skillet. Fry patties on each side for around 6–7 minutes until browned nicely. Cook in batches if you have to, and move cooked patties to a clean plate.
05 - Melt the rest of the butter in the same pan. Add the mushrooms, cook until golden, and season them with Worcestershire or soy sauce along with some black pepper.
06 - Place patties back in the skillet with mushrooms. Pour in beef broth, cover, and cook on low for 25 minutes, turning patties now and then.
07 - Mix the remaining gravy packs with 1.5 cups of liquid from the pan, whisk it well, and pour it back. Let it cook for another 8 minutes until the sauce thickens. Let everything sit for 5–10 minutes before digging in.

# Notes:

01 - Pair these flavorful patties with mashed potatoes for that cozy, satisfying meal.
02 - Want a richer sauce? Blend 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1/2 cup cold water and stir it in gradually while cooking.
