Ingredients:

 

2 pounds ground beef

1/2 diced onion

1 cup crumbled saltine crackers

1 cup milk

1/4 flour

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

3 tablespoons butter

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Gravy Sauce:

 

1-2 cans cream of mushroom soup

1.5 cups of milk

Instructions:

 

Preheat & Mix: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, meld together the ground beef, crumbled saltine crackers, milk, minced onion, and seasonings until uniformly mixed.

 

Shape & Coat: Mould the meat mixture into oval or rectangular patties, mimicking traditional steak shapes, and daintily coat each with flour, ensuring to shake off excess.

 

Brown Patties: In a spacious skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat, placing the patties therein to cook until they achieve a browned appearance on both sides, approximately 3 minutes per side. Set aside after removing them.

 

Prepare to Bake: Relocate the patties to a greased 9×13 baking dish. Mix the gravy sauce ingredients in a bowl and cascade over the patties.

 

Bake: Envelope your baking dish with foil and bake for 50 minutes. Uncover and allow an additional 10 minutes of baking.
