Hamburger Steaks smothered in gravy is a classic and easy meal. You may also know this dish as, Salisbury Steak. This is a budget friendly meal and does not take alot of ingredients. The ground beef is mixed similar to meatloaf, but formed into hamburger pattys. First fried, then simmered in a flavorful onion gravy. I love to make this meal for weeknight and Sunday dinners. This dish can be made whenever of course! Hamburger steaks is comfort food for sure, and will keep the family full! Let’s jump into this easy recipe!

Ingredients
2 lbs ground beef
1/2 cup of bread crumbs
1 egg
1 green bell pepper
1 yellow onion
1 packet of Beef bouillon or 2 tbsp if you don’t have packets
2 tbsp of flour
At least 1 cup of Water
Vegetable oil
2 tbsp worcestershire sauce (optional)
1 tbsp of browning seasoning (optional)
Directions
- First, prepare ground beef by chopping up one bell pepper. I try to dice up bell pepper small but this is totally up to you. Add to a mixing bowl: ground beef, bell peppers, bread crumbs, worcestershire sauce, and seasonings.
- Take your hands and mix everything together (if your prefer use a spoon or gloves), then make hamburger pattys. Then set your pattys to the side.
- Now, take out a frying pan and add cooking oil, cover bottom. Turn stove on medium high heat. When oil starts to heat, add hamburger pattys. Cook on both sides for at least 5-7 minutes. Take out and place to the side on paper towel to drain oil off. (Medium well is great for this dish, it will finish off in gravy step)
- After you take pattys out, (remove extra oil if needed from pan) add chopped onion to pan, and turn stove down to medium low heat. Saute onions for at least 2 minutes, then add flour to make a roux. Mix flour into the onions until flour is dissolved. Mix water and beef bouillon together, then add it to the pan. Stir until you have a gravy to your liking , Add more water as needed.
- Add hamburger steaks into the pan of gravy, and take a spoon to move gravy on top of hamburgers. Let hamburgers simmer in gravy on low for at least 10 minutes covered.
