Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 teaspoon worcestershire sauce split
  • 1 medium yellow onion ¼ minced, ¾ thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves finely minced
  • 2 tablespoon neutral oil
  • 8 oz button mushrooms
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3 ½ cups beef broth split
  • 3 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions
 

  • Add ground beef, salt, pepper, 2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and ¼ of the onion finely diced to a large bowl. Mix gently with your hands until combined.
  • Form mixture into 8-10 patties. Place on a tray, cover, and transfer to the fridge while you make the gravy.
  • Add oil to a large skillet over medium low heat. Add sliced onions and saute for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.
  • Add butter and sliced mushrooms and continue to cook until mushrooms have browned and wilted, another 5-7 minutes.
  • Transfer cooked mushrooms and onions to a bowl and set aside.
  • Turn heat to medium high and add half of the patties. Brown patties on both sides. Transfer to a plate and brown the remaining patties. Set aside.
  • Return cooked onions and mushrooms to pan. Add beef broth, soy sauce, and the remaining worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer.
  • Whisk together corn starch and remaining beef broth. Add it to the pan and continue to cook until the gravy thickens, around 5 minutes.
  • Return all of the patties to the gravy and simmer on low until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Ground venison works great in this recipe!
  • The eggs are traditionally served sunny side up but cook them however you like them.
  • This recipe can be transferred to a crockpot and kept on low or warm until ready to serve.
  • When cooking the patties, cook on both sides until just browned. They will continue to cook in the gravy.
