Ingredients
blank
2 pounds 80/20 ground sirloin or ground beef
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 egg
1 Tablespoon milk
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons Revolution Barbecue Texas Beef BBQ Rub
1 Tablespoon neutral oil (avocado, canola, or vegetable)
3 Tablespoons butter
blank
1 medium yellow onion (thinly sliced)
8 ounces sliced bella or button mushrooms
2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef stock
1 Tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Revolution Barbecue Texas Beef BBQ Rub
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the ground sirloin or ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, Worcestershire sauce, and Texas Beef BBQ Rub. Mix lightly with your hands until just combined, then form into 6 equal, oval-shaped patties, about ¾ inch thick.
Preheat a heavy-bottom skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil and butter. Once melted, add the beef patties and brown completely on one side (about 5 minutes) before flipping and browning the opposite side.
Move the seared patties to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Add 2 additional tablespoons of butter to the hot skillet. Add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, until softened and starting to brown. Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to coat, cooking the flour for 1-2 minutes. Pour in the beef stock, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring the gravy to a boil while stirring regularly. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 1-2 minutes. Season with the Texas Beef BBQ Rub.
Return the seared Salisbury steaks to the pan, spooning the hot mushroom gravy over the top. Cover, reduce heat to low, and let steaks simmer in gravy for about 10 minutes. Garnish with parsley or thyme and serve with mashed potatoes or rice.
