HAMBURGERS WITH BROWN GRAVY (TOTAL COMFORT FOOD AKA "MEAT CAKES" :)
These are sooooo great (and EZ)! I grew up eating these about once a week and they are incredible with mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles and a veggie. While this recipe is basically my mom's, I have changed one thing...instead of using chopped onion in the burgers, I use an envelope of onion soup mix...it gives them the PERFECT flavor! This is now one of my family's favorite meals...try it and it will probably become one of your's, too. P.S. These burgers also work for grilling (without the gravy :).

MEAT CAKE
This is my recipe for meat loaf. However, I have always cooked it in a 9x11 pyrex baking dish so my husband calls it meat cake. It even has an "icing " on top. I usually make mashed potatoes and a green vegetable to go with this. I also have enough leftovers to make meat cake sandwiches later in the week. The meat cake sandwiches are delicious.

MEAT FOR MEXICAN STACK
This is fabulous for "Mexican Stack" which is great for a large get-together such as a football party or a church group as it serves a lot of people inexpensively. A Mexican Stack consists of most ingredients being served separately and each person is able to pick and choose what they want to put on their plate. The food line begins with a base such as rice or tortilla chips, then topped with meat and beans (this recipe), cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, olives, sour cream, etc. Have a party and let each person bring something different for the Stack! It's fun and everyone gets something that they like. I got this from a friend at church.

Tips:
- To achieve perfectly browned hamburgers, use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. This will create a flavorful crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the hamburgers. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and may result in steamed burgers rather than browned ones.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). For medium burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Let the cooked hamburgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and tender burger.
- For the brown gravy, use a combination of beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce to create a rich and flavorful sauce. Feel free to adjust the proportions of each ingredient to suit your taste preferences.
- Serve the hamburgers with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. You can also add a dollop of ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise.
Conclusion:
These classic hamburgers with brown gravy are a timeless comfort food dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. With their juicy patties, flavorful gravy, and endless topping options, they are a versatile meal that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even a late-night snack. So fire up the grill or heat up your skillet and give this recipe a try – you won't be disappointed!
