Step 3: Bake the Patties
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bake the patties uncovered for about 40–45 minutes. This helps them firm up and develop a slightly browned exterior.
Step 4: Prepare the Gravy
While the patties are baking, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl until smooth.
If you like, add sliced mushrooms for extra texture and flavor.
Step 5: Add the Gravy and Continue Baking
Remove the patties from the oven and carefully drain excess grease from the dish.
Pour the prepared gravy evenly over the patties, making sure they are well covered.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for another 20–25 minutes. During this time, the patties absorb the rich gravy and become even more tender.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Once done, let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve your Amish Poor Man’s Steak hot, topped with plenty of gravy.
Serving Suggestions
This dish pairs beautifully with:

Tips for the Best Results
- Don’t skip the crackers: They act as a binder and help keep the patties tender.
