Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

Hamburger Patties

  • 2 pounds ground beef chuck
  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • ½ large onion Vidalia or other sweet onion, finely minced
  • 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Mushroom Gravy

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 12 ounces white button or cremini mushrooms or a mixture sliced
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions
 

  • Place the first 9 ingredients (ground chuck, bread crumbs, onions, and seasonings) in a large bowl and gently mix until incorporated. Divide the meat mixture into six portions, shaping each portion into 6 meat patties.
  • In a large skillet — I use a cast iron skillet — heat oil on medium high heat until shimmering and then add the meat patties. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and tent foil over the top to keep them warm.
  • Add butter to the skillet and allow to completely melt over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté 5 to 6 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender and golden. Add the garlic and cook another 30 seconds. Add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon about 2 minutes or until the flour is well incorporated into the mushrooms.
  • Slowly add the broth to the skillet and whisk until gravy is smooth. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and add the hamburger patties to the pan. Cook for about 7 minutes, or until the patties are cooked through. Top the patties with Crispy Fried Onions and serve over rice or potatoes.
