Ingredients
Patties
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- ⅓ cup breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons ketchup
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Gravy
- 2 packets brown gravy mix
- 2 cups hot water
- 1 teaspoon ketchup
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Prepare Patties: Combine all patty ingredients in a bowl and mix with your hands until well combined. Shape the mixture into 4 evenly sized patties for uniform cooking.
- Cook Patties: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook until browned on both sides and no longer pink inside, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Make Gravy: Reduce heat to low. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown gravy mix with hot water until smooth. Stir in ketchup and Worcestershire sauce to enhance flavor.
- Simmer Patties in Gravy: Pour the gravy mixture over the browned patties in the skillet. Let simmer gently until the gravy thickens and heats through, about 3-4 minutes, ensuring the patties soak up the savory sauce.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef to reduce excess fat but still maintain juiciness.
- Adjust seasoning and ketchup to taste for sweetness and tang.
- Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 3 days and reheated gently on stovetop.
