Description

This slow cooker Salisbury steak is rich, savory, and incredibly comforting.
The beef patties soak up the flavorful onion gravy as they cook, becoming fork-tender and juicy.
It’s a classic homestyle dish that pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.

Tips

• Do not over-mix the beef to keep the patties tender.
• For thicker gravy, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
• Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles.
• Browning the patties first adds extra flavor, but it’s optional.

Correction

• Avoid using ultra-lean ground beef, as it can make the patties dry.
• Do not stack patties tightly to ensure even cooking.
• Whisk gravy thoroughly to prevent lumps.

Enjoy

Serve this comforting Salisbury steak hot from the slow cooker and enjoy a stress-free,
delicious homemade meal. Simple ingredients, classic flavor, and pure comfort in every bite!
