Classic Salisbury Steak

Salisbury Steak is an easy dinner option that’s classic comfort food.

The first step to making a mouthwatering Salisbury steak is to ask the butcher to grind you some fresh marbled chunks of sirloin for the meat patties. I like to use a 90% lean ground triple a range fed beef, because it has a lot of flavor but it’s not overly greasy. The meat is mixed with panko crumbs and simple steak seasonings, then formed into the oval salisbury steak.

I use a well seasoned cast iron skillet to pan fry the patties to a mouthwatering golden brown. To the skillet making a simple gravy with fried onions and mushrooms, beef broth and a little cornstarch or flour to thicken. I use button mushrooms, but other wild mushroom varieties would also be a great choice.

Salisbury steak is a classic dish covered in a savory sauce mushroom gravy.

The end result is tender flavorful sirloin steak patty that are smothered in most tasty way that makes it a great family meal.

The absolute best way to serve salisbury steak is with buttery mashed potatoes, a vegetable side like asparagus or a grilled garlic butter tomato.
