🍽️ Instructions
1. Make the Patties
- In a bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Shape into 4 oval patties.
2. Cook the Patties
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Brown patties 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
3. Make the Gravy
- In the same skillet, melt butter.
- Add extra chopped onions and cook until soft.
- Stir in flour and cook 1–2 minutes.
- Gradually whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
- Simmer until thickened, season with salt and pepper.
4. Combine & Simmer
- Return patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over them.
- Simmer 10–15 minutes until patties are fully cooked.
5. Serve

💡 Tips
- Use half ground beef, half ground pork for juicier patties.
- Add mushrooms to the gravy for extra flavor.
- Don’t skip browning the patties—it adds depth to the gravy.
If you want, I can give a slow cooker version of Salisbury Steak that cooks the patties right in the gravy for even easier cleanup.
Do you want me to do that?
