SLOW COOKER SALISBURY STEAK

Step 3: Prepare the Gravy

1. In a medium bowl, mix together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder.
2. Stir until smooth and well combined.

Optional: If you like a thicker gravy, add cornstarch slurry (cornstarch + water) during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Step 4: Assemble in the Slow Cooker

1. Pour a thin layer of gravy into the bottom of the slow cooker.
2. Carefully place the patties on top of the gravy, spacing them slightly apart.
3. Pour the remaining gravy evenly over the patties.

Step 5: Slow Cook to Perfection

1. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours.
2. The patties should be tender and juicy, fully cooked through, and infused with rich, savory flavor.

Tip: Avoid lifting the lid too often, as it prolongs cooking time.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

1. Gently transfer the Salisbury steaks to plates.
2. Spoon the rich mushroom gravy over the top.
3. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.

Serving Suggestions:

• Mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles (perfect for soaking up gravy)
• Steamed vegetables like green beans, carrots, or broccoli
