Hamburger steak is similar to Salisbury steakin that both arecovered in an onion and mushroom gravy. What separates this version from Salisbury steak is a more simply-flavoredpatty mixture and the omission of tomato-based ingredients like tomato paste and ketchup, resulting in an unadulterated, beefier bite.

It's easy and foolproof and completely worthy of your dinner table, especially considering it'll be ready in under an hour. Serve it over a bed of mashed potatoes, a healthy salad, or with Parker House rolls.
