  • 1 Tsp Kitchen Bouquet (to darken the gravy color if desired)

Instructions
 

  • Add all the ingredients to the ground beef except the frozen butter and mix gently till combined like you would a meat loaf
  • Add the shredded butter being careful to keep the butter from softening too much
  • Shape into oval patties and brown lightly (about 2 minutes on each side) and then remove from skillet and set aside

Mushroom Onion Gravy

  • Using the same skillet (preferable a deep sided skillet) add 1 Tbsp butter to the existing oil from the searing of the meat patties, stirring til melted
  • Over medium heat, Add the onion half slices and saute (stirring carefully) til translucent and caramelized which will take about 10-15 minutes
  • About 5 minutes before onions are done, add the mushrooms and watch carefully that the onions and mushrooms do not burn
  • Stir 2 cups of beef broth into the skillet and let simmer for 2-3 minutes along with the onions and mushrooms
  • In a glass bowl or large measuring cup, make a slurry of 1 cup of beef broth to 2 tbsp corn starch using a whisk to throughly incorporate
  • Add the slurry to the skillet stirring til gravy thickens (If gravy gets too thick add more beef broth to thin to consistency desired)
  • Carefully lay the meat patties back into the skillet and allow to simmer with the onion and mushroom gravy for about 3-6 minutes assuring the meat is thoroughly cooked
  • Add the last tbsp of butter to the gravy which will give the gravy a glossy finish making it irresistible. 🥰
  • Serve over mashed potatoes, noodles or rice OR on toasted Texas Toast
