Hubcap Hamburger Steak Covered In Brown Gravy + Onions Recipe

Hubcap Hamburger Steak with Brown Gravy and Onions - Directions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently just until combined, then shape into four thick hubcap-shaped patties.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and sear until deeply browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer patties to a plate and keep warm.

3. 3

   In the same skillet, add butter and sliced onion. Sauté until soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Once onions are ready, reserve about half for topping if desired.

4. 4

   Sprinkle flour over the pan and whisk to form a light roux. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly to cook off raw flour.

5. 5

   Slowly whisk in beef broth and 1/2 cup water, scraping up browned bits from the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens slightly. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Return the patties to the pan, nestling them in the gravy with the onions. Cover and simmer on low heat for 8-10 minutes, or until the patties are cooked through and the gravy reaches your desired consistency.

7. 7

   Taste the gravy and adjust as needed. If too thick, thin with a splash of water; if too thin, simmer a bit longer. Serve the hubcap hamburger steaks topped with onions, with mashed potatoes or rice.
