Ingredients

Scale

Gather these ingredients to make your Crockpot Salisbury Steak:

  • 1 ½ pounds ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (or crushed crackers)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 1 small onion, sliced for gravy

Instructions

Prepare the Beef Patties:

  1. Mix the Beef Patties: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
  2. Form the Patties: Divide the mixture into 6 even portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick.

Brown the Patties:

  1. Brown the Patties: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. This step adds extra flavor and helps seal in the juices, but it’s optional if you’re short on time.
  2. Transfer to Crockpot: Once browned, transfer the patties to the crockpot, layering them in the bottom of the pot.

Prepare the Gravy:

  1. Make the Gravy: In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown gravy mix, beef broth, soy sauce, and sliced onions (if using). Stir until smooth, then pour the mixture over the beef patties in the crockpot.
  2. Add Mushrooms (Optional): If you like mushrooms, add the sliced mushrooms over the top of the patties and gravy for extra flavor.

Slow Cook the Salisbury Steak:

  1. Cook on Low: Cover and cook on low for 5 hours or on high for 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and the gravy has thickened.
  2. Serve: Once cooked, carefully remove the patties and spoon the rich gravy over the top before serving.
