Salisbury Steak

Total Time: 38 mins Preparation Time: 8 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 1 (7/8 ounce) envelope brown gravy mix
• 1 small onion, diced very small (or dried)
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 (4 ounce) package saltine crackers, crumbled (one sleeve)
• 1 dash salt
• 1 dash pepper
• 1 dash garlic powder
• 1/4 cup water (more or less to form patties)

Recipe

• 1 combine all the ingredients (water last). mix it all using your hands, then form thick patties.
• 2 fill a skillet until the patties are less than a quarter covered (approx. 1/4 inch water). frying in water helps them retain their juiciness.
• 3 when meat is done on the inside brown slightly on both sides.
• 4 if desired, a second envelope of brown gravy may be used to pour over the patties at the table (follow package directions), but they are so juicy you usually don't need it.
