Ingredients
- 1 lb. ground beef (80/20)
- 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 tsp dry ground mustard
- 1 tsp ground black pepper, divided
- 1.5 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 cup ketchup, divided
- 2 tbs Worcestershire sauce, divided
- 4 tbs butter, divided
- 1/2 large onion, diced
- 1 lb mushrooms, sliced (white, baby bella, crimini)
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 2 tbs flour
- 3 cups beef broth
Instructions
- Make the patties:
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, beaten egg, dry mustard, ½ teaspoon black pepper, 2 tablespoons ketchup, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Using your hands, gently mix until the ingredients are just evenly combined. Form the mixture into 4 oval-shaped patties. Using your thumb, gently press a shallow indentation into the center of each patty to help prevent them from puffing up as they cook. Place the patties on a plate and set in the freezer while you prepare the gravy. - Start the gravy:
In a deep sauté pan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for about 3 minutes, until softened. - Cook the mushrooms:
Add the mushrooms and cook for 4 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more, stirring frequently. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. - Build the gravy:
Slowly pour in 1 cup of the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the remaining broth, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, salt, and remaining black pepper, stirring well. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat, carefully transfer the gravy to a bowl, and set aside. Wipe the pan clean. - Sear the patties:
Return the sauté pan to medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Add the patties and sear for 3–5 minutes per side, until a deep brown crust forms. - Simmer:
Pour the reserved mushroom gravy over the patties. Bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 12 minutes. - Rest and serve:
Remove from heat, uncover, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
