Ingredients
-
-
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
-
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
-
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
-
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, plus an extra dash
-
1 cup halved thinly sliced onion
-
1 tablespoon oil
-
-
2 tablespoons self-rising flour
-
1 cup beef broth
-
1 lb ground chuck
-
1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs
-
1 egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
- Mix together the ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, pepper, seasoned salt, onion powder, garlic powder and Worcestershire sauce. Form into 4 patties, or as many as you want, depending on how large you want your "steaks".
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties and onions in the oil until patties are nicely browned, about 4 minutes per side, or until done if not making gravy. Remove the patties to paper towels.
- If NOT MAKING GRAVY, continue cooking the onions until they turn golden brown and caramelize. Remove onions and serve atop hamburger "steaks". Stop here!
- If MAKING GRAVY, sprinkle flour over the onions and drippings in the skillet. Stir, scraping up brown bits off the bottom as you go. Gradually add the beef broth and sherry.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer and stir over medium-low heat about 5 minutes, or until gravy thickens. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.
- Reduce heat to low, return patties to the gravy, cover and simmer 15 minutes or until cooked through.
