Hamburger Steak and Gravy recipe

By request of TigerBait2008.
This is roughly how I do it.
I season about 1 1/2 lbs of ground beef (85/15) with a tsp salt, 1/2 tsp blk pepper, 1/2 tsp granulated garlic, 1/2 tsp onion powder. I mix in 1 egg, about 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, and enough water to get a good consistency to for patties.
I heat a large skillet (with a lid) to high with a enough oil to coat the bottom. I brown the patties on both sides in two batches. When they are browned, I put them on a plate on the side.
In the same skillet with the dripping, I lower the heat to med-hi and saute a medium sized onion cut into thin rings until they begin to caramelize. I sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of flour over the onions and continue to stir until the get a nice brown color. *sometimes I also add a chopped jalapeno or a cayenne pepper or two to my onions.
A little at a time, stir in about 2 cups water or beef stock. A few shakes of Worcestershire sauce. Add the patties on top. Throw in some mushrooms if you want. Put the lid on, reduce to a low simmer for about 20-25 minutes.
Done. A slice of swiss cheese on top isn't bad with the gravy and mushrooms, if you are a fatass like me.
This product is priceless.
Heat a can of these.
And now you have a meal your mama would be proud of. Total price for this meal is likely less than a Caniac Box, and will be enough for leftovers.

Sounds good.
I put a squirt of Catsup in my gravy because I like it like that

cooking with the juices from ground beef? bagged potatoes, canned veggies? no thanks.

You can make a healthier version with even more leftovers for close to the same price.

You, and your sophisticated palette, were not my targeted audience. Some of these folks on here aren't as talented. They can be intimidated by a meal that uses every pot in their kitchen and takes over and hour to prepare.

Dude, the title of the thread is "Hamburger Steak and Gravy recipe", not "Canard a l'orange recipe". Did you think he was going to lovingly sweat his onions in only the finest of first cold press extra virgin olive oil?

Yep. Beef fat. About 1 1/2 tablespoons of it. Add the two tablespoons of flour, then you have your roux for your gravy.

What do you think gravy is made of? Come on, man.

Dude, I feel that recipe. I would eat it, especially if I had a day in the woods behind me.
Couple of Bud heavy and that would knock me down.

Sounds good. I like to deglaze with about 1/2 cup red wine

Beef looks god, but how hard is it to mash some potatoes?
Peel and cube 6 russet potatoes. Boil in salted water til fork tender. Drain water. Add 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons milk mash over low heat. Salt and pepper to taste.
Sometimes i add a small amount of sour cream. It adds a tang and makes the potatoes creamier.

Brtigerfan. I'll make this with meatballs also and add roux to the gravy. Meatball Stew and a big pot of rice. So good

I love sour cream in mine. I also use an aromatic like chives, basil, or garlic in a very small amount to give it a hint of something extra.
Don't be scared of the steamer bag. It's just the cubed Russet potatoes in there. It's not unlike the steamer bags of broccoli and cauliflower. You still need to season them and mash them anyway you like. No pot, no water, no colander, and it only take 10 minutes in the steak oven.
I still boil them the traditional way when I am cooking meals that take longer than 30 minutes to cook. I keep a few bags of these in the deep freezer for convenience.
My wife is of German decent. We always have potatoes in the house just as my Acadian friends have rice.

I'd eat it. Minus the cheese and the canned green beans. I do enjoy a good old hamburger steak. George's does a good one with the onions and mushrooms. Piccadilly used to have a good one.

I like bell pepper with this.

followed the recipe pretty closely, with some tweeks.
seasoned the meat with a little soy, dash worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, chile powder, and cumin.
added a poblano pepper in with the onion. turned out very good.
only problem was no rice or taters to soak up the gravy (trying to stay somewhat low carb)

Sounds tasty. I may try a poblano next time myself.
