Ingredients

Scale

Patties:

  • 1 lb Lean Ground Beef
  • 1/3 cup Bread Crumbs
  • 2 tsp Ketchup
  • 1 tsp Mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Gravy:

  • 2 packets Brown Gravy Mix
  • 2 cups Hot Water
  • 1 tsp Ketchup
  • 1/2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce


Instructions

  1. Prepare patties: In a large bowl, combine all pattie ingredients and gently massage with your hands until fully mixed and evenly combined.
  2. Heat skillet: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to warm.
  3. Cook patties: Add the patties to the skillet and cook on both sides until they are no longer pink in the center, ensuring they are fully cooked through.
  4. Lower heat: Reduce the skillet temperature to low to prepare for simmering the gravy.
  5. Make gravy: In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown gravy mix and hot water until smooth and well blended.
  6. Add flavorings: Stir ketchup and Worcestershire sauce into the gravy mixture, then pour the gravy over the patties in the skillet.
  7. Simmer: Allow the patties and gravy to simmer on low heat until the gravy thickens and warms thoroughly, coating the patties deliciously.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef for a healthier version without sacrificing flavor.
  • Adjust salt and pepper to taste based on your preference.
  • Serve with creamy mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
  • This dish can be doubled easily for larger families.
  • If preferred, you can make your own brown gravy from scratch instead of using packets.
