HOMEMADE SALISBURY STEAK WITH ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• If you want caramelized onions in your gravy, start by thin slicing a small onion. Cook with 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat until nicely brown. About 7-8 minutes. You can cook the optional mushrooms instead or in addition with the onions. Set aside in a bowl.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of ground beef with 1/3 cup breadcrumbs, 2 teaspoons ketchup, 1 teaspoon mustard and Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. If not doing the onions, then add 1/2 teaspoon onion powder.
• Divide the hamburger mixture into 3-4 equal portions. A quarter-size indent in the middle of one side to prevent puffing up of the patties and make cooking evener.
• Place steak patties in a large frying pan with a teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat. Flip about every 5-6 minutes until an internal temperature of 165°. About 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness, the pan, and your burners.
• Whisk 4 tablespoons flour with 1 cup beef broth. Remove the Salisbury steak to a plate and lightly tent. Pour out most of the liquid, leaving about 3-4 tablespoons of liquid. Allow the pan to cool some. Add 1 cup beef broth and bring to a light boil over medium heat.
• Slowly add the flour-broth mixture while continuing to whisk. Add 1 teaspoon ketchup and 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Whisk until nicely thickened, a few minutes. If using the caramelized onions or mushrooms, add them to the gravy and mix well.
• Add steak back into the mixture, simmer for a few minutes until everything is hot.

COUNTRY STYLE STEAK LIKE GRANNY USED TO MAKE

Steps:

• 1. Wash and pat dry cube steaks. Sprinkle with salt and dredge in flour, set aside. In large skillet, brown the cube steaks in hot oil a couple of minutes on each side, then lay into slow cooker and set aside.
• 2. In deep skillet (I use a cast-iron fryer), melt grease. While grease is melting, mix flour with salt, pepper, and sugar. When grease is melted, add flour mixture and brown well, stirring constantly. Add milk while stirring constantly. Continue to stir and bring gravy to a boil, but Do not allow to thicken.
• 3. Pour gravy over browned cube steaks and add additional salt and pepper, if desired. Turn slow cooker on high and cover. After about 1 hour, turn cooker down to low and cook for about three more hours, gently stirring occasionally.
• 4. About the last hour of cooking, check on the gravy. If too thick, thin down with a little water or milk, stirring or whisking gently. If too thin, mix a couple of tablespoons cornstarch with water to make a pourable paste. Slowly and gently stir into gravy. You must be very gentle when stirring so as not to break up the tender meat too much.
• 5. When gravy is the desired consistency and meat is tender, turn slow cooker off or to keep warm. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes and with your favorite veggies.

SMOTHERED ROUND STEAK WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• Sprinkle each side of the round steak pieces with salt and pepper, rubbing seasoning into the meat.
• Combine 1/2 cup flour and garlic powder in a 1-gallon resealable bag. Add steak pieces, seal bag, and shake to evenly coat all the pieces.
• Heat 1/3 cup of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add seasoned and floured steak pieces to the skillet in a single layer in batches and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with remaining pieces, adding more oil, if necessary, until all are browned.
• Add onion slices to the same skillet and stir, coating onions with pan drippings, until onion slices have separated and are just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Move onions to one side of the skillet and return browned steak pieces to the skillet. Spread steak evenly in the skillet and place onions on top.
• Stir together water, beef base, and Worcestershire sauce in a microwave-safe container. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and pour into the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the steak is tender, about 45 minutes.
• Remove the steak from the skillet and add reserved 1/2 cup of flour to the pan drippings. Increase heat to medium; stir briskly and cook until bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir in milk and keep stirring until gravy bubbles again. Return steak, onions, and any accumulated juices to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors are well combined, about 10 minutes.
