Why You’ll Love This

Truth is, Salisbury steak has a bad rap. It’s because most people have had a highly processed version. We’re gonna create a healthy, fresh version you can be proud of.

Ingredients

• For the patties:
  • quality ground beef (80 to 85% lean, ground chuck)
  • panko style breadcrumbs
  • milk
  • egg
  • half an onion (grated, for onion pulp)
  • granulated garlic
  • Kosher salt
  • ground black pepper
• For the sauce:
  • half an onion (diced)

Instructions

1. Loosen up the ground beef.
2. Into the bowl, add our grated onion pulp.
3. Add some granulated garlic.
4. Add Kosher salt.
5. Add ground black pepper.
6. Loosely mix that up a little bit.
7. Then add our panade egg mixture.
8. Notice by hand, we’ll get things mixed well together.

Cooking Tips

Look for 80 to 85% lean.

My go-to for this recipe is ground chuck.

This combination is our secret weapon to keep our patties moist, with the egg helping to hold things together.

Grating an onion is definitely old school. I like the result because we’ll get the flavor into the patties without the texture.

I prefer this to the garlic powder, by the way.

Now we’re gonna work our way through to making the sauce. We want to make sure that we’re using all the ingredients that we have.
