What is Hamburger Steak?

Very similar to Salisbury Steak, hamburger steak is a savory blend of ground beef, seasonings, and onions cooked in a rich brown gravy.

We love homemade beef patties but you can use pre-made burger patties instead if you prefer.

How to Make Hamburger Steak

1. Prepare beef patties (you can use frozen in a pinch) and brown the outsides.
2. Soften onions and mushrooms in butter.
3. Whisk in flour and beef broth and simmer the patties in the gravy until tender and cooked through.

Once simmered, serve hamburger steaks and gravy over one of the following:

• buttered egg noodles
• mashed potatoes
• oven-baked rice
• garlic mashed potatoes
• brown rice

Got Leftovers?

Fried hamburger steaks make great leftovers! Perfect for a workday lunch on a cold day! For next-day eating, keep leftover hamburger steaks and gravy in a sealable container and the mashed potatoes in a separate one.

Reheat in the microwave, stirring after two minutes. Or place in a skillet and reheat on low.
