Ingredients
Beef Patties:
1 ½ lbs lean ground beef
½ cup breadcrumbs
1 egg
2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Country Gravy:
4 tablespoons butter
¼ cup flour
Pinch ground cayenne pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
3 cups milk
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: Egg noodles or mashed potatoes for serving
Directions
Prepare Beef Patties:
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well and shape into 6 patties.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the patties on both sides, approximately 4-5 minutes per side. Once browned, transfer the patties to an oven-proof plate and place in the oven at 300°F for 15 minutes to finish cooking.
Make Country Gravy:
In the same skillet over medium-low heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook, whisking continuously, until the mixture turns golden brown and becomes fragrant, about 7 minutes.
Slowly pour in the milk while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Simmer the gravy until slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes. It will continue to thicken upon cooling. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine and Serve:
Return the beef patties to the skillet with the gravy. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Serve the hamburger steaks hot over a bed of mashed potatoes or egg noodles, spooning extra gravy over the top.
