  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp oil For frying
  • 1 tbsp butter For gravy
  • 2.5 cups mushrooms, sliced For gravy
  • 1 tsp garlic, minced For gravy
  • 2.5 cups beef broth Better Than Bouillon recommended
  • 2.5 tbsp flour
  • 1 tsp whole grain mustard For gravy
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce For gravy

Equipment

  • Large skillet or cast iron pan
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Glass measuring cup
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. Finely chop 1/4 cup onion and 1 cup mushrooms for patties. Slice remaining onion and 2.5 cups mushrooms for gravy. Keep separate.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, 1/4 cup onion, 1 cup chopped mushrooms, egg, panko, tomato paste, mustard, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Mix by hand until just combined.
  3. Shape into 6 oval patties.
  4. Heat skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tbsp oil. Sear patties in batches for 2 minutes per side until browned. Centers do not need to be fully cooked. Remove to a plate.
  5. Add butter to skillet. Saute reserved sliced onions and mushrooms for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.
  6. Whisk beef broth and flour together in a measuring cup until smooth. Slowly pour into skillet while whisking constantly. Add mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Stir and cook over medium-high heat until gravy simmers and thickens, about 2 minutes.
  7. Return patties to skillet. Reduce heat to low simmer and cook 5 minutes until patties reach 160 degrees F internal temperature. Garnish with parsley and serve over mashed potatoes.

Notes

Mix patties by hand for the most tender results. Whisk broth and flour before adding to prevent lumps. Freeze patties and gravy separately for up to 3 months.
