Great dish!!!!!!!!!! I served with mashed potatoes and cabbage. Easy and I had everything on hand. I was a bit confused by another viewer about the steak tasting like hamburger. It should taste like hamburger because it's made with ground beef. another name for this is Hamburger Steak. Made for I Recommend.

We really liked this - definitely good comfort food! I used 1 onion and 8 oz mushrooms. Based on other reviews, I started the onions first, to give them a longer cooking time, then added the patties. I used a 14 oz can of beef broth, instead of the water and bouillon and did not increase the flour - the consistancy of the gravy was perfect. I do think that next time, I'll use the 2nd onion, but I'll chop it and add it to the ground beef, to give the patties better texture and flavor. This was so good and easy, I'm sure I'll be making it often! Thank you!

This was really good, and so quick to make. Like some other reviewers, I added onions to the beef mix, and that added quite a bit of extra flavor. I served this with home-made mashed potatoes and a veggie side dish! Very tasty comfort food - will add it to the rotation. Thanks for posting - made for Spring PAC 2012.

Since your description had such a way of selling me on making this most savory recipe, I've suggested you as a job reference for DD#1. Made for A-NZ#55 Recipe Tag.

My husand liked this, lumpy gravy and all (chef limitation - not the recipe's fault). I think the next time I try it I will use cube steaks and add mushrooms to the gravy.
