Ingredients

  • 2 lb. ground beef
  • 1 (4 oz.) can mushroom stems and pieces, chopped
  • 1 c. sour cream
  • 3/4 c. dry bread crumbs
  • 1 Tbsp. chopped chives
  • 1 1/2 tsp. salt
  • generous grinding of black peppercorns

Instructions

  1. Mix all ingredients together.
  2. Shape into thick patties and broil.

Tips & Substitutions

For the best texture, use a combination of ground beef with a higher fat content, such as 80/20, to keep the patties juicy. If you don't have chives, green onions can be a great substitute. Adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce can enhance the umami flavor of the steaks. Consider incorporating garlic powder or onion powder for extra depth. For a twist, try mixing in some grated cheese for a cheesy Salisbury steak.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these Salisbury steaks with creamy mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the delicious juices. A side of steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad can add a nice balance to the meal. For a comforting twist, pair them with the flavors of corned beef hash or include them in a layered meat loaf for a hearty dinner option.

Storage & Reheating

To store leftovers, place the cooked Salisbury steaks in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. When reheating, warm them in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of beef broth to prevent dryness, or microwave them on medium power until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use ground turkey instead of beef?

Yes, you can substitute ground turkey for a leaner option. Just keep in mind that turkey may be drier, so adding a bit more sour cream or a splash of broth can help maintain moisture and flavor.

What can I do if the patties fall apart while cooking?

If your patties are falling apart, try adding an extra egg or more breadcrumbs to help bind the mixture together. Make sure to form the patties firmly and chill them for about 30 minutes before cooking to help them hold their shape.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare the patties in advance and store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking. Alternatively, you can freeze them raw, then cook directly from frozen, adjusting cooking time as needed.
