A comforting Salisbury steak recipe made with lean ground beef, cooked in a rich mushroom gravy in a slow cooker.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs lean ground beef
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 oz onion soup mix
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 20 Ritz crackers
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup diced yellow onions
  • 21 oz condensed cream of mushroom soup (2 x 10.5 oz cans)
  • 0.87 oz brown gravy mix
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons corn starch

Instructions

  1. Dump the lean ground beef into a large mixing bowl. Add the egg, onion soup mix, and milk to the bowl.
  2. Place the Ritz crackers in a ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pot. Pour the cracker crumbs into the bowl with the ground beef.
  3. Use your hands to combine all the ingredients well. Divide the meat mixture into four evenly sized balls and flatten them into patties. Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef patties to the heated pan and cook until the bottoms are browned, about 3 minutes. Flip the patties and continue cooking until the other side is browned, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from heat.
  4. Spray the inside of the crock pot with cooking spray. Pour the diced onions into the bottom. Place the browned patties in a single layer on top of the onions (they may overlap slightly). Dump the cream of mushroom soup into a mixing bowl and add the brown gravy mix and beef broth. Whisk all ingredients together well. Pour this mixture over the patties in the crock pot. Place the lid on and set it to cook on LOW. After 4 hours, remove the lid and transfer the patties to a plate. Stir the crock pot contents well. Combine water and corn starch in a small bowl, stirring until completely dissolved. Pour the corn starch mixture into the crock pot and whisk to combine. Return the patties to the pot and let them cook for an additional 10 minutes to thicken the sauce. Serve and enjoy!
