It’s fall ya’ll! That means my crockpot is going to be working hard over the next few months. In fact, I broke it out last week to make some Beef Stew and today I’m making Salisbury Steak. I ALWAYS make time for crockpot meals! Besides, they save me a lot of valuable time in the day so I can do other things.

I won’t say everything I’ve ever made in the crockpot was tasty and worth making again, but this Salisbury Steak is on point! So why not share the recipe with you? It’s actually pretty easy to make and one of my favorite crockpot dishes.

Ingredients:

• 2-2.5 lbs. ground beef
• 1 pack of onion soup mix
• 1/2 cup of milk
• 3/4 cup of bread crumbs
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup of flour
• 1 pack of brown gravy mix OR mushroom gravy mix
• 1 can of french onion soup
• 1 can of cream of mushroom soup
• 1 can of mushrooms (or 2 small ones)

Directions:

1. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet, just above medium heat.
2. In a bowl, mix the ground beef, onion soup mix, milk, bread crumbs and eggs.
3. Form the mixture into patties.
4. Cover the patties with flour and place in the heated skillet. Do not completely cook the patties, but just get a nice brown on the outside.
5. Place the patties directly into the crockpot. You’ll have to stack them.
6. In a bowl, mix the brown gravy mix, french onion soup, cream of mushroom soup and mushrooms (drained).
7. Pour the mixture over the patties in the crockpot.
8. Cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 6 hours).
9. Serve with mashed potatoes, rice or your favorite side dishes.

In my family this recipe yields about 5-6 servings. We typically eat two patties and the kids eat one, and then we’ll have some left over for the next day.
