Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground chuck (80/20)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth, preferably low-sodium
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)

Method
 

  1. Mix the ground chuck, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl. Shape into 4 oval patties about 3/4 inch thick.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the patties for about 4 minutes per side until a dark crust forms. Remove and set aside.
  3. Melt the butter in the skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir for 1 minute. Slowly pour in the beef broth while whisking, add Dijon if using, and simmer until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
  5. Return the patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over them, and simmer for 2 minutes. Serve hot with extra gravy spooned on top.

Notes

If the patties feel too soft to handle, pop the plate in the fridge for 10 minutes before you sear them. The gravy tightens as it sits, so take it off the heat when it is just slightly thinner than you like.
