Prep Time: 10minutes

Cook Time: 30minutes

Total Time: 40minutes

INGREDIENTS:

▢1 pound ground beef

▢⅓ cup Panko bread crumbs

▢2 teaspoons ketchup

▢1 teaspoon mustard – regular yellow or dijon

▢1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

▢½ teaspoon garlic powder

▢½ teaspoon onion powder – optional, use if not doing onion in gravy

Gravy

▢1 onion – optional if not using mushrooms

▢½ cup sliced mushrooms – optional if not using onion

▢1 teaspoon oil

▢2 cups beef broth

▢4 tablespoons flour

▢1 teaspoon ketchup

▢½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

▢salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. If you want caramelized onions or mushrooms in your gravy, start by thin-slicing a small onion or about 5 oz of mushrooms. Cook with 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat until nicely brown onions or cooked mushrooms. About 7-8 minutes for the onion, or saute the mushrooms until cooked. Set aside in a bowl.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of ground beef with ⅓ cup Panko breadcrumbs, 2 teaspoons ketchup, 1 teaspoon mustard and Worcestershire sauce, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. If not doing the onions, then add ½ teaspoon onion powder.
  3. Divide the hamburger mixture into 3-4 equal portions. A quarter-size indent in the middle of one side prevents puffing up of the patties and makes cooking evener.
  4. Place steak patties in a large frying pan with a teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat. Flip about every 5-6 minutes until an internal temperature of 165°. It takes about 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness, the pan, and the burners.

  6. Slowly add the flour-broth mixture while continuing to whisk. Add 1 teaspoon ketchup and ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Recipe Notes

Pro Tips

Use the ground meat you like. Make the patties ¼ to ⅓ pound. ½ pound will not cook well on the stovetop.

Don’t chop the onion. Cut into rings and maybe cut the larger ones in half.

You can easily use mushrooms in place of or in addition to the onions in the gravy. They will cook faster than the onion. Do not add either to the gravy raw.

Use the depression in the center of the patties. It will help prevent them from puffing up during cooking, and they will cook more evenly.

Be sure to cook the patties to 165° minimum.
