A classic comfort food recipe featuring tender, juicy ground beef patties simmered in a rich, homemade mushroom gravy. Perfect for a cozy weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms (cremini or white button), sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth (low-sodium preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt, to taste (about 1 teaspoon for patties)
  • Black pepper, to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon for patties)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently and form into 6 oval-shaped patties about 1/2 inch thick.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties in a single layer and brown each side for 3-4 minutes until a deep golden crust forms. Remove patties and set aside.
  3. Lower heat to medium, add butter to the skillet. Add sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes until browned and moisture evaporates.
  4. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes. Slowly pour in beef broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Add remaining 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Simmer gently until gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.
  5. Return patties to the skillet, nestle into mushroom gravy. Cover and simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes until patties reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Spoon gravy over patties before serving.

Notes

Do not overmix the meat to keep patties tender. Brown patties without overcrowding the skillet to develop a good crust. Use fresh mushrooms for best gravy flavor. Simmer gravy slowly on low heat to avoid graininess. Save pan drippings for extra flavor in gravy. If gravy is too thin, simmer uncovered longer or add a cornstarch slurry.
