Hamburger steak and gravy is a classic for a reason. Instead of hamburgers<\/a> served on buns, these ground beef patties are smothered in a rich mushroom gravy and served with hearty sides like mashed potatoes and soft rolls. It’s an economical combo that uses pantry staples like bread crumbs and onion soup mix to bulk up and flavor the meat, but you can\u00a0spice and season it just however you like. This comfort food staple might just be one of the best easy weeknight dinner recipes<\/a> ever.<\/p>\n

What is hamburger steak?<\/h2>\n

Instead of being traditional steaks<\/a> like a T-bone or ribeye, hamburger steaks are made of ground beef shaped into round, oblong or oval patties. Hamburger steak and Salisbury steak<\/a> are similar, but Salisbury steaks tend to be very thin and are sometimes made with a blend of ground beef and pork. Depending on where you’re from (or on the recipe handed down through the family), both can have egg and bread crumbs to bind the meat together, and both can be served with onion and\/or mushroom gravy. When deciding how to make hamburger steak with gravy, we opted to use both binders and mushrooms for extra flavor.<\/p>\n
