Salisbury Steak – A Family Favorite
Homemade Salisbury steak is one of our favorite easy home cooked recipes! While you can definitely make Salisbury Steak in the Slow Cooker, this quick and easy version is ready in about 30 minutes so it’s perfect for a weeknight!
Once cooked, we serve this over Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes, egg noodles, rice or even Mashed Cauliflower! Add in a side salad or some steamed broccoli and you’ve got a perfect meal your whole family is going to absolutely love!
This Salisbury Steak recipe has been a favorite forever and was among one of the very first published on the blog way back when (below is the original photo).
What is Salisbury Steak?
Salisbury Steak is a dish that has been around for years and years. It usually consists of a homemade hamburger patty smothered in a rich and flavorful brown gravy! I love to add onions and mushrooms to the gravy to add in extra flavor!
Difference Between Salisbury Steak and Hamburger Steak?
We tend to use the terms interchangeably, although some think there is a difference between Salisbury Steak and hamburger steak. Technically a hamburger steak should contain only meat (and seasonings) with no fillers such as breadcrumbs while a Salisbury steak does include different ingredients like onions, eggs and bread crumbs (similar to a meatloaf).
I’ve seen many Salisbury steak and Hamburger steak recipes, and for the most part, I think that both tend to be made the same way if cooked in a gravy mixture.
How To Make Salisbury Steak
One great thing I love about this homemade Salisbury steak is that it’s quick, easy, and needs just one pan to cook the patties and the gravy!! How to make Salisbury steak? There’s really nothing to it.
- Softening onions/mushrooms over low heat
- Combine the beef mixture and form patties (you can use frozen or store bought hamburger patties if you prefer.
- Browned on each side and cook in the gravy mixture until perfectly tender
I keep my gravy simple and while some people make Salisbury steak with french onion soup or mushroom soup, I prefer to get the flavor from real onions and mushrooms! Serve this easy recipe over a pile of perfect mashed potatoes.

I’m so glad you loved it Karen!
Everyone in my family thought this was the best Salisbury Steak we have made. We served it with mashed potatoes. My 4 year old daughter ate her whole piece.
I’m so glad your family loved it!
Tried the stake and mushroom was really
Thank you
I can feel the steak is sooooo tender. Using it with some pieces of bread must be perfect xo

Thank you Natalie! I hope you enjoy it!
Wow! This is very good! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome Kathleen!
Can you make this in the crockpot? If so, how long would you leave it in? Both high and low. Thank you, can’t wait to try it!
I haven’t tried this recipe in the crock pot, but I do have Slow Cooker Salisbury Steak that you should try Julie! For high, I would suggest 2.5-3 hours.
This recipe is fantastic! Not only can you use the ground beef mixture, but other non grounded cuts of beef as well. So far, I’ve used the ground beef, cubed steaks, sirloin tip steaks, arm steaks, and even Iowa pork chops. Going to try this with boneless chicken breasts swapping the beef gravy mix and broth to chicken. This is a go to recipe!
I am so glad you love this recipe Karen!
A go to definitely, for someone like me who just can’t bring myself to eat a plain dry disgusting burger patty this is the way to go
No salt?
You can add salt and pepper to taste.
i didn’t add salt doesn’t need it..
Yuuuumy It’s simmering on the stove now and the kitchen smells amazing! Looking forward to it! Thanks so much!!!!! Bless you
I hope you enjoyed it Mary Lynn!
I made this on top of the stove and my husband and I loved it. I want to try the crockpot recipe for I didn’t prepare for it the first time. I would highly recommend this tasty dish.
I’m so glad you loved it!
I can not cook. I married a professional chef because i hate to cook. I took a chance and made this for my husband and family and they loved it. It certainly didn’t take 5 hours, only 2 and a half, but could be the cooker i used. Thank you for making cooking exciting and fun.

What happened to the mushroom soup?
This recipe doesn’t contain mushroom soup.
Omgosh, your Salisbury Steak Dinner is the yummiest. I love cooking home cooked dinners.
Yay, I’m happy to hear that it was a hit!
Do you need the ketchup?? Allergic
The ketchup adds a little bit of zip & flavor but you could certainly leave it out if you’re allergic.
Do you have to use Pablo bread crumbs?
I’ve only tried this recipe as written but I think regular bread crumbs would work just fine!
Has anyone ever used anything instead of potatoes??
Spendwithpennies, thank you! It is amazing dinner! We love it! It is my first time!
Thanks great Rhonda! So glad you enjoyed it!
It’s very good. I make it all of the time
I made your Mushroom Salisbury Steak for my family tonight and everyone loved it! (Including me!) my husband only had one request, the next time I make it serve rolls so he can dip them in the sauce.
I’m so glad your family loved it!

I have never heard of conspdensed beef broth and couldn’t find it at Walmart. Is this a regional thing?
