Slow Cooker Salisbury Steak

This classic recipe for Slow Cooker Salisbury steak is tender and has plenty of gravy!

Hi all! This Slow Cooker Salisbury Steak is a classic recipe that I’ve wanted to put on my website for a while. I made a version of this with cube steak a few years ago, not only did that not turn out well, I cooked it too long and the patties were as hard as a rock. This time I made patties from ground beef, crackers, egg, milk and seasoning. I add a gravy mixture, onions and mushrooms to the slow cooker with the patties. 4.5 hours later on the low setting, the patties are perfectly tender and the gravy has thickened.

I hope you try this recipe, it’s one the best home cooked meals I’ve had in a long time! I think this goes great with mashed potatoes, but would be great with a baked potato too. Have a great weekend.
