Description
These Salisbury steak meatballs are tender, juicy, and coated in a deeply flavorful onion gravy.
The slow cooker allows the meatballs to absorb all the savory goodness, creating a rich and comforting
dish that pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
Tips
- For a creamier gravy, stir in ¼ cup sour cream during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Use low-sodium beef broth to control the salt level.
- Serve with buttered egg noodles or creamy mashed potatoes for a classic comfort meal.
- Leftovers reheat well and taste even better the next day.
Correction
- If the gravy is too thick, add a little extra beef broth and stir well.
- If the gravy is too thin, remove the lid for the last 20–30 minutes to help it thicken.
- Stir gently to keep the meatballs from breaking apart.
Enjoy
Serve hot with your favorite sides and enjoy a warm, comforting meal that tastes homemade
with almost no effort. Perfect for family dinners, potlucks, or cozy nights in.
